Replacements for the chemical bisphenol A (BPA) have become commonplace in plastics labelled BPA free. However, many of these chemicals have similar structures and properties to BPA. A new study reports that replacement bisphenols, which were discovered as laboratory contaminants, are reproductive toxicants and that their effects might persist for multiple generations.
用于替代化学物质双酚 A(BPA)的物质在标注为不含 BPA 的塑料中已经很常见。然而,其中许多化学物质的结构和性质与 BPA 相似。一项新的研究报告称,作为实验室污染物而被发现的替代双酚具有生殖毒性,其影响可能会持续多代。
