HOW SAFE ARE OUR BABIES? AN IN-SIGHT ON EFFECT OF BISPHENOL A (BPA) ON DEVELOPMENT
Abstract
Globally anthropogenic materials have replaced natural materials. These substances which were industrially useful have proved to be highly deleterious in recent decade. One of these compound is Bisphenol A (BPA), which is used in almost all food cans and containers. This paper focus on little known aspects of BPA which is an endocrine disruptor on oogenesis, gene implants, embryo development, mammary glands, prostate ,testis urethra. Exposure to even small concentrations of BPA have shown severe impact on different stages of embryo development. The behaviour modifications as well as carcinogenic effects are also discussed based on the studies on various animal models.
Keywords: Bisphenol A, Leaching, Endocrine disruptor, Development, Carcinogenicity.
