Presence of Parabens and Bisphenols in Food Commonly Consumed in Spain. Foods. 2021;10(92):92http://hdl.handle.net/10668/3499Given the widespread use of bisphenols and parabens in consumer products, the assessment of their intake is crucial and represents the first step towards the assessment of the potential risks that these compounds may pose to human health. In the present study, a total of 98 samples of food items commonly consumed by the Spanish population were collected from different national supermarkets and grocery stores for the determination of parabens and bisphenols. Our analysis demonstrated that 56 of the 98 food samples contained detectable levels of parabens with limits of quantification (LOQ) between 0.4 and 0.9 ng g−1. The total concentration of parabens (sum of four parabens: ∑parabens) ranged from below the LOQ to 281.7 ng g−1, with a mean value of 73.86 ng g−1. A total of 52% of the samples showed detectable concentrations of bisphenols. Bisphenol A (BPA) was the most frequently detected bisphenol in the food samples analysed, followed by bisphenol S (BPS) and bisphenol E (BPE). Bisphenol AF (BPAF), bisphenol B (BPB) and bisphenol P (BPP) were not found in any of the analysed samples. LOQ for these bisphenols were between 0.4 and 4.0 ng g−1.enAtribución 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ParabensBisphenolsFoodSpainParabenosAlimentosEspañaMedical Subject Headings::Organisms::Eukaryota::Animals::Chordata::Vertebrates::Mammals::Primates::Haplorhini::Catarrhini::Hominidae::HumansMedical Subject Headings::Chemicals and Drugs::Organic Chemicals::Carboxylic Acids::Acids, Carbocyclic::Benzoates::Hydroxybenzoates::ParabensMedical Subject Headings::Chemicals and Drugs::Organic Chemicals::Hydrocarbons::Hydrocarbons, Cyclic::Hydrocarbons, Aromatic::Benzene Derivatives::PhenolsMedical Subject Headings::Chemicals and Drugs::Organic Chemicals::Hydrocarbons::Hydrocarbons, Cyclic::Hydrocarbons, Aromatic::Benzene Derivatives::Benzhydryl CompoundsMedical Subject Headings::Chemicals and Drugs::Organic Chemicals::Sulfur Compounds::SulfonesMedical Subject Headings::Geographical Locations::Geographic Locations::Europe::Spainresearch article33466450Acceso abierto10.3390/foods100100922304-8158PMC7824906
