Abstract

There is a great deal of evidence which has raised the need for various governmental organizations to regulate the use of bisphenol A (BPA) as plasticizer [1-4]. Indeed, BPA has shown endocrine disruptor effects, associated with a wide range of health outcomes [5,6]. Furthermore, biomonitoring investigations have frequently detected the presence of BPA in human urine, serum and breast milk; therefore, the exposure to this substance has been reported to be widespread [7-9].
