Sažetak
Chemical additives are considered to be one of the main contributors to the toxicity of plastics, especially when they fragment into microplastics (MPs) in the environment. Bisphenols (BPs), as plasticizers, are a group of dozens of organic compounds that have been used as building blocks in the manufacture of polycarbonate plastics, epoxy resins and other products. This review provides an overview of the most commonly produced BPs (BPA, BPB, BPF, BPS, BPAF, BPAP) detected in the marine environment, the methods available for their detection and quantification, particularly in bivalves, and the potential risks of human exposure to BPs as endocrine disrupting chemicals and emerging contaminants. This work shows that the presence of BPA in bivalve molluscs has been investigated worldwide, with most studies conducted on the Asian coast, while the main analogues acting as estrogenic, progesteronic and anti-androgenic compounds have not been studied. The estimated daily intake (EDI) for BPA, BPB, BPF, BPS, BPP, BPAF, BPAP and for the sum of these BPs (ΣBPs) found in bivalves on the South African and Asian coasts at both median and maximum exposure exceeded the tolerable daily intake (TDI), suggesting that the EDI of bivalves with BPs pose a human health hazard. There is a need to conduct and implement studies on the distribution of BPs in the environment and the risk of consumption of bivalves as a potentially significant source of their intake.
