Abstract

Diet is considered the most essential source of bisphenol A (BPA) exposure. The risk of dietary BPA exposure in the population in Turkey has not been investigated. This study aimed to evaluate dietary BPA exposure and potential health risks across different age and sex groups in Turkey using data from the nationally representative the Turkey Nutrition and Health Survey (TNHS)-2017. Food consumption records data were analyzed to estimate dietary BPA exposure and health risks according to European Food Safety Agency (EFSA) guidelines. A conservative exposure scenario was used, assuming no canned food consumption. Adolescents exhibited the highest mean dietary BPA exposure (females, 21.80 ng/kg BW/day; males, 27.58 ng/kg BW/day), followed by adults (females, 18.95 ng/kg BW/day; males, 24.87 ng/kg BW/day), and the lowest in older adults (females, 15.34 ng/kg BW/day; males, 18.42 ng/kg BW/day). The main dietary contributors to BPA exposure were meat and meat products (middle bound (MB): 41.33 %–55.33 %), vegetables and fruits (MB: 16.54 %–30.67 %), and cereals and bread (MB: 16.00 %–20.96 %). The estimated mean dietary BPA exposure in all age groups exceeded the tolerable daily intake recently established by the EFSA (0.2 ng/kg BW/day), indicating potential health risks despite the conservative model.

在土耳其使用基于欧洲食品安全局的模型对饮食双酚A暴露和健康风险进行国家级评估

饮食被认为是双酚A （BPA）暴露的最重要来源。土耳其人群饮食中BPA暴露的风险尚未被调查。本研究旨在利用具有全国代表性的2017年土耳其营养与健康调查（TNHS）的数据，评估土耳其不同年龄和性别群体的饮食BPA暴露和潜在健康风险。根据欧洲食品安全局（EFSA）的指导方针，对食品消费记录数据进行分析，以估计饮食中的BPA暴露和健康风险。使用了保守的暴露情景，假设不食用罐头食品。青少年的BPA平均暴露量最高（女性21.80 ng/kg BW/day；男性27.58 ng/kg BW/day），其次是成人（女性18.95 ng/kg BW/day；男性24.87 ng/kg BW/day），老年人最低（女性15.34 ng/kg BW/day；男性18.42 ng/kg BW/day）。BPA暴露的主要膳食来源是肉类和肉制品（中间限（MB）： 41.33 % -55.33 %），蔬菜和水果（MB: 16.54 % -30.67 %），谷物和面包（MB: 16.00 % -20.96 %）。所有年龄组的平均膳食BPA暴露量估计超过了欧洲食品安全局最近确定的每日可耐受摄入量（0.2 ng/kg BW/day），尽管采用保守模型，但仍表明存在潜在的健康风险。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Food Composition and Analysis publishes manuscripts on scientific aspects of data on the chemical composition of human foods, with particular emphasis on actual data on composition of foods; analytical methods; studies on the manipulation, storage, distribution and use of food composition data; and studies on the statistics, use and distribution of such data and data systems. The Journal''s basis is nutrient composition, with increasing emphasis on bioactive non-nutrient and anti-nutrient components. Papers must provide sufficient description of the food samples, analytical methods, quality control procedures and statistical treatments of the data to permit the end users of the food composition data to evaluate the appropriateness of such data in their projects. The Journal does not publish papers on: microbiological compounds; sensory quality; aromatics/volatiles in food and wine; essential oils; organoleptic characteristics of food; physical properties; or clinical papers and pharmacology-related papers.
