Determination of Bisphenol-A

Bisphenol A is a kind of organic compound obtained by the combination of phenol and polycarbonate molecules. This compound is particularly effective today in the production of nylon, plastic, polyester and PVC-like materials. Bisphenol A has an annual production of around three million tons. This organic compound is very suitable for treatment with many acids, especially hydrochloric acid. In recent years there have been serious claims that this organic compound causes cancer in humans.

Bisphenol A is used in the production of a large number of products. For example, bisphenol-a compound is used in bottles, water bottles, insulating materials, eye lenses, dental fillings, dental instruments, medical instruments, household electronic devices, DVDs and CDs, and sports equipment.

This organic compound is an endocrine inhibitor, ie it inhibits the body's hormones and other secretions. It interferes with the operation, movement, secretion, transfer and production of hormones. In a sense, it is a fake of natural hormones in the body. As such, it poses a danger to human health. Infants and young children, especially in developmental age, are extremely sensitive to the effects of bifenol-a.

In order to protect bisphenol A compound, it is not necessary to put food containing plastic in the microwave, washing the plastic containing materials in the dishwasher and washing the plastic containing materials with hard detergents.

Experts recommend using at least the lowest level until switching to products that do not contain biphenol-a.

According to the research, bifenol-a is the largest soil pollutant. It prevents nitrogen interaction at the root of many plant species.

Considering that polyester used in textile sector is also a plastic product, it is possible that bifenol-a compound may be produced in textile products. Therefore, in accredited laboratories, test and analysis studies are carried out to determine the presence and amount of bifenol-a organic compound in textile products.
