Toxicological and Health Aspects of Bisphenol a

A Joint Fao/Who Expert Meeting to Review the Toxicological and Health Aspects of Bisphenol

Beschreibung

Bisphenol A (BPA) is an industrial chemical that is widely used in the production of polycarbonate (PC) plastics (used in food contact materials, such as baby bottles and food containers) and epoxy resins (used as protective linings for canned foods and beverages and as a coating on metal lids for glass jars and bottles). These uses result in low level consumer exposure to BPA via the diet.
