Effects of Surface Epitope Coverage on the Sensitivity of Displacement Assays that Employ Modified Nanoparticles: Using Bisphenol A as a Model Analyte
2016
Biosensors
Thiolated bisphenol A (BPA) functionalized gold nanoparticles (cysBPAv-AuNPs) and specific anti-BPA antibodies are employed for this purpose. ...
It is shown that the displacement of cysBPAv-AuNPs bound to the immobilized antibodies was influenced by both the avidity of bound cysBPAv-AuNPs and the concentration of free BPA to displace it. ...

2022
Frontiers in Pharmacology
In vivo benchmark dose 10% lower confidence limits (BMDL10) for oral uptake of BPA (ng/kg BW/day) were calculated from the in vivo dose-responses and compared to the human equivalent dose (HED) BMDL10 ...
The workflow was tested using a human PBK model for bisphenol A (BPA) and high throughput screening (HTS) in vitro concentration-response data, for estrogen and pregnane X receptor activation determined ...

Adsorption and desorption behaviors of selected endocrine disrupting chemicals in simulated gastrointestinal fluids
2014
Marine Pollution Bulletin
During the dynamic desorption tests, 62% and 21% of sediment-bound BPA and EE2, respectively, could be released into the simulated GI fluids. ...
Pepsin in the gastric fluid would compete for the adsorption sites with the adsorbates, and bile salts in the intestinal fluid had a solubilization effect on the chemicals. ...
Model chemicals Two typical EDCs, BPA and EE2, were chosen as the model pollutants for the sediment adsorption and desorption tests. ...

Exploring the Ability of Luminescent Metal Assemblies to Bind and Sense Anionic or Ionizable Analytes A Ru(phen)2bipy-Based Dizinc Complex for Bisphenol A (BPA) Recognition
2021
Molecules
Only the dizinc complex with [Ru(phen)2L]2+ is able to bind BPA in aqueous solution, affording a remarkably stable {Zn2[Ru(phen)2L]BPA(H−2)}4+ adduct at neutral pH, in which BPA is bound in its doubly ...
Although the quenching effect is modest, this study demonstrates that appropriately designed dizinc complexes can be used for binding and optical sensing of BPA in water. ...

Computers and Chemical Engineering
Molecular dynamics simulations predicted that parent, unamended, clay has higher binding propensity for BPA and BPS than for DBP and DEHP; carnitine-amended clay improved BPA and BPS binding, through carnitine ...
Our studies demonstrate how computational and experimental methods, combined, can characterize clay binding and sorption of toxic compounds, paving the way for future investigation of clays to reduce BPA ...
Two categories of binding were considered in the calculations: self-binding, for which a compound was bound directly to the clay, and assisted-binding, for which a compound was bound indirectly to the ...

The Effect of Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) on the Release and Distribution of Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals (Edcs) from Sediment under Hydrodynamic Forces, A Case Study of Bisphenol A (BPA) and Nonylphenol (NP)
2019
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health
Moreover, the ratio (αEDCs) of BPA and NP contents in soluble and colloid-bound phases varied differently with αDOM. ...
The results suggested that BPA tended to be in the soluble phase and NP tended to be in the colloid-bound phase due to the increasing value of αDOM. ...
As per the colloid-bound phase, the NP content under low hydrodynamic intensity was lower than the BPA, and subsequently overpassed BPA under high hydrodynamic intensity. ...
