Message: [QUOTE="greenmedinfo, post: 5070"] PMID: Int J Appl Basic Med Res. 2021 Oct-Dec;11(4):214-220. Epub 2021 Nov 17. PMID: 34912683 Abstract Title: A Comparative Study of Effects of 28-Day Exposure of Bisphenol A and Bisphenol S on Body Weight Changes, Organ Histology, and Relative Organ Weight. Abstract: Context: Bisphenol A (BPA), a known endocrine disrupting chemical, is of widespread use in manufacturing of plastic products. Documenting ill health effects of BPA has led the plastic industrialists to replace BPA by its alleged safer alternative, bisphenol S (BPS). BPS belongs to the same chemical family and shares endocrine disrupting properties with BPA.Aims: We compared the effects of 28-day exposure of BPA and BPS on body weight changes, organ histology, and relative organ weight in rats. In addition, we detected BPA and BPS in the rat's blood serum.Settings and Design: Adult male albino rats were administered BPA (50 mg/kg/day) or BPS (50 mg/kg/day) or equivolume vehicle in different groups by oral gavage for 28 days.Subjects and Methods: The weight of each rat was noted at the commencement of the study and weekly afterward. On 29day, the animals were sampled for whole blood and then sacrificed. The dissected out wet viscera were weighed and subjected to the standard protocol for histological examination. Serum samples were prepared and analyzed for the detection of BPA and BPS by high-pressure liquid chromatography.Statistical Analysis Used: Paired and unpaired Student's-test, one-way ANOVA test, and Bonferroni test for multiple comparisons were used, as required for statistical analysis, and [URL='https://www.greenmedinfo.com/article/comparative-study-effects-28-day-exposure-bisphenol-and-bisphenol-s-body-weigh']read more[/URL] [/QUOTE]
