Table 1.
Specific Effect | Model Used | Results | Reference Number |
---|---|---|---|
Reproductive System | Zebrafish | Mixed results with 3 studies claiming BPS was the least toxic to developing zebrafish and one study claiming BPS was the most toxic | Moreman et al. [12] Catron et al. [13] Qiu et al. [14] Kinch et al. [15] |
Murine | BPS and BPA decreased sperm counts, sperm quality, and spermatogenesis but only BPS decreased sperm motility. In females, BPS decreased lactation, disrupted follicular development, caused an abnormal estrogen response, increased female infertility and altered maternal behavior | Roelofs et al. [16] Liang et al. [17] Shi et al. [25] LaPlante et al. [18] Catanese & Vandenberg [19] Hill et al. [20] Castro et al. [21] Ohtani et al. [22] Demacopulo & Kreimann [23] Shi et al. [24] |
|
Bovine | BPS caused the most abnormal oocyte spindle formation & chromosomal misalignment | Campen et al. [26] | |
Porcine | BPS inhibited cell proliferation & nonenzymatic scavenging activity causing reproductive toxicity | Berni et al. [27] | |
human cell lines or explants | BPS more easily decreased spermatogenesis, BPA and BPS both inhibit early placentation | Eladek et al. [28] Desdoits-Lethimonier et al. [29] Basak & Duttaroy [30] |
|
Clinical/Observational Studies | BPS was not correlated with lower birth weight and smaller head circumference, but was correlated with lower Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) levels | Mustieles et al. [31] Aker et al. [32] |
