Endocrine disruptors have been implicated in carcinogenesis in animal studies, but carcinogenetic effects on human remain controversial. In order to examine the genotoxicity of two common endocrine disruptors, Bisphenol A and Diethylstilbestrol, cytogenetic endpoints including chromosome aberration (CA), sister chromatid exchange (SCE), micronuclei (MN) analyses and DNA damage by single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE) were assessed. The effects of Bisphenol A and Diethylstilbestrol on the frequencies of CA and MN were increased in a dose-dependent manner and that of Bispheol A was more significant by Kendall'$\tau$test. Bisphenol A and Diethylstilbestrol also increased the frequency of SCE. Bisphenol A and Diethylstilbestrol induced DNA damage in a dose-dependent manner and the DNA damage induced by Diethylstilbestrol in human blood lymphocytes was more significant.

Aquatic ecotoxicity of bisphenol A, a well known endocrine disrupter in mammals, was studied using lab. reared Daphnia magna as a test organism. The static acute 48h $LC_{50}$ of bisphenol A was 12.9mg/L and 110-hr $LC_{50}$ values of bisphenol A for daphnid embryos of different ages after deposition into the brood chamber increase with ages in the range of 1.55mg/L-8.91mg/L. Bisphenol A showed the ability to inhibit embryonic development. The lethal response and developmental inhibition all showed good concentration-response relationship.

We have examined if lactic acid bacteria could suppress the toxic effect of bisphenol A. Lactobacillus casei YA-70 was chosen as representative. Thirty rats were divided into two groups (immature and mature) according to the weight. Each group was divided again into the control group (only alcohol treatment), bisphenol A treated group, and bisphenol A plus Lactobacillus casei YA-70 treated group. When 500 ppm of bisphenol A was fed everyday, 83% of immature group and 50% of mature group died within 3 weeks. Their internal organs, mainly livers and lungs, were changed in color and severely damaged. In the intestine of 5 ppm-fed group tumor-like nodules were observed. However, their number and size were markedly decreased when Lactobacillus casei YA-70 was supplemented in diet. This study strongly indicates that Lactobacillus casei YA-70 might play an important role to suppress the toxic effect of endocrine disruptor.

Purpose: There has been a number of reports on elution of bisphenol-A, an endocrine disrupting chemical, from milk bottles, all concerning the potential health effect of the substance. In this study, we measured the elution of bisphenol-A from milk bottles during boiling-water sterilization, to suggest a safe sterilization method. Method: Through the survey of 200 mothers, 78.5％ of them expressed their concern on the possible harmful effect of bisphenol-A, which might be eluted from the bottles. And it was found that most mothers use boiling-water to sterilize bottles; duration of boiling bottles could be divided into three groups of 3, 5, and 10 minutes. We measured the elution of bisphenol- A from three different brands of bottles, subject to various mode of sterilization found in the survey. Result: In all the measurements, the concentration of the eluted bisphenol-A was in the range of 0.3 - 0.7 ppb, far below 2.5ppm, the level set up by Korea Food ％amp; Drug Administration(KFDA) for a potential harmful effect. Conclusion: Although trace amount of bisphenol -A can be eluted from polycarbonate milk bottles during sterilization, and bottle feeding, the amount is found to be too small to cause any health related impact for infants.

내분비계장애물질인 bisphenol A, nonylphenol, pentachlorophenol을 대상으로 여성 유방암세포 유래 MCF-7 세포주와 남성 전립선암세포 유래 PC-3 세포주에서 세포 증식효과를 MTT 방법으로 조사하였다. MCF-7 세포주에 이들 세 종류의 내분비계장애물질을 농도별로 처리하여 세포증식에 미치는 영향을 조사한 결과 모두 세포증식을 촉진하는 결과를 보였다. $10^{-7}$ M에서 $10^{-6}$ M 농도 범위에서 MCF-7 세포의 최대증식효과를 유도하였다. 그러나 PC-3 세포주의 경우에는 세포증식에 bisphenol A, nonylphenol, pentachlorophenol 모두 영향을 미치지 못하였다. 이러한 결과는 이들 세 종류의 내분비계 장애물질이 남성 전립선세포 유래인 PC-3 세포주의 증식에는 관여하지 않고 여성 유방암 세포에서 유래하고 에스트로젠 반응성인 MCF-7 세포주에만 증식효과를 갖는 사실을 보여주고 있으며 이는 bisphenol A, nonylphenol, pentachlorophenol이 여성호르몬인 에스트로젠과 유사한 역할을 한다는 사실을 보여주는 것이라 할 수 있다.

Objectives: The study is to evaluate biological monitoring and risk assessment for epichlorohydrin-bisphenol A resin exposed from waterproofing or finishing work in the apartment building construction. Methods: Subjected workers were working on spray-painting and waterproofing work for 8 hours per day every 20 days. The urine samples were collected at the end of 20 days working period. For urinary bisphenol A as metabolite from epichlorohydrin-bisphenol A exposure, urine samples were analyzed with liquid chromatography mass-mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS). Results: Geometric means of urinary bisphenol A(BPA) with no hydrolysis and with enzymic hydrolysis(BPA-EH) in the workers were $1.10{\mu}g/L$ and $2.90{\mu}g/L$. BPA-EH was 4 times higher than that of control group. The factors for working period and ages did not affect the variation of BPA and BPA-EH. The levels for BPA and BPA-EH were not higher than 95th percentile for exposure on human-life environment. Conclusions: The BPA and BPA-EH were therefore effective biological markers for epichlorohydrin-bisphenol A exposure workers, but not seem to hazardous exposure level. Waterproofing work in construction workshop is required to measuring work environment and health care management for the workers.

Bisphenol A is used in the manufacture of epoxy, polycarbonate, and corrosion-resistant unsaturated polyester-styrene resins required for food packaging materials in industrial processing. Some reports indicated the possibility of harmful effects on rats. In this study was used a method for the determination of bisphenol A in blood according to the OSHA High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) guideline. The method involved blood extraction using methylene chloride. And it was evaluated developmental and teratogenic effects in pregnant rats and second generation. The results obtained were as follows. There was a significant increase in the body weights and treated groups F1 female in liver, spleen, kidney, but according to dose-response. F1 female rat's relative body weight and absolute body weight are not different. There was a significant increase liver, spleen, kidney organ weight and reproductive organ weight epididymis, prostate gland in F1 male rats. There was a proestrous in pregnant rat, group 200 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg, 2000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg, 20,000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg. The effect on rat treated with bisphenol A decrease organ weight and reproductive organ weight. Identification and quantitation were performed with using HPLC C18 column and using at retention time 5.5 min. The results of the detection of bisphenol A were at 20,000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg in average 1 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, 200 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg average in 0.9 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml blood samples. From those results, it could be concluded that the effects of pregnant rat and second generation(F1) by bisphenol A treatment during lactational period were estrogenic and bisphenol A was remained in serum at low level.

비스페놀-A는 epoxy resin, polycarbonate, polyester-styrene resin 등의 플라스틱 제조에 사용되는 물질로써, 기체 크로마토그래피를 이용하여 간단하며 빠르고 감도 좋은 분석방법을 연구하였다. 비스페놀-A를 acylating 시약을 사용하여 크로마토그래피의 성질에 적합하도록 유도체화 한 후 SIM(selected ion monitoring) mode를 이용하여 GC/MS(gas chromatography/mass spectrometry)로 분석하였으며, 본 연구 결과 캔 물질에서 비스페놀 A는 $0.11{\sim}11.40{\mu}g/can$이 검출되었다.

국내에서 분리된 구름버섯(Trametes versicolor)에 의한 내분비계 장애물질 bisphenol A의 생분해 효율을 높이기 위하여 그 생분해 최적조건을 조사하였다. T. versicolor는 Yeast extract-Malt extract-Glucose (YMG) 배지에서 12시간 이내에 50 mg/L bisphenol A를 100% 생분해하며, 5일 동안 선배양 시에는 2시간 이내에 100% 제거하였다. Bisphenol A의 농도가 낮을수록, 온도는 $35^{\circ}C$, pH 6에서 생분해율이 가장 높았으며 교반의 영향은 크지 않았다. 최소배지에서는 생분해율이 약간 낮았지만 최적조건은 YMG 배지에서와 유사하였다. 생분해에 관여하는 리그닌 분해효소 laccase의 mediator인 ABTS [2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzo-thiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt]를 최소배지에 첨가할 경우 bisphenol A의 생분해가 촉진되었다. 접종물 중 배양 상등액에 대한 균체량의 비율이 높을수록 생분해율이 증가하였는데 그 비율이 50%일 때 폐수에 첨가한 50 mg/L의 bisphenol A가 4일째에 100% 분해되었다. YMG 배지에서 bisphenol A의 생분해에 따라 내분비계 장애효과를 나타내는 에스트로겐 활성은 감소하였다.
