General description

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a diphenylmethane derivative, commonly used in the production of polycarbonate plastics, epoxy resins, and various other plastic-based consumer products. It is also known to exhibit strong endocrine-disrupting ability.
This compound is listed in the SVHC (Substances of very high concern) candidate list of ECHA (European Chemicals Agency)

Application

The analytical standard can also be used as follows:
  • Quantitative analysis of bisphenol A and bisphenol S in three plastic product samples of a mineral water bottle, polycarbonate bottle, and baby bottle, using a modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) sensor based on a crystalline covalent organic framework (COF)
  • Simultaneous determination of bisphenol A, S, and F in 112 samples of thermal paper receipts by liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS) following their ultrasound-assisted extraction
  • Development and validation of a gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) method for the measurement of bisphenol A and 18 BPA-related compounds in 30 breast milk samples after their solid phase extraction (SPE)
  • Construction of an electrochemical sensor based on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) for the determination of bisphenol A & S in river water and thermal paper samples by cyclic voltammetry (CV)
  • Determination of bisphenol A in urine samples using a novel method based on miniaturized QuEChERS extraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)
  • Investigate the bisphenol A content from glass or Pasteur pipettes in biological liquids from maternal women using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
