TLDR
In urine samples from several cohorts, bisphenol A (as glucuronide) was present in average concentrations in the range of 1-3 microg/L suggesting that daily human exposure to bispenol A is below 6 microg per person for the majority of the population.About:

Bisphenol A and human health: a review of the literature.
TL;DR: The growing human literature correlating environmental BPA exposure to adverse effects in humans, along with laboratory studies in many species including primates, provides increasing support that environmental B PA exposure can be harmful to humans, especially in regards to behavioral and other effects in children.

Bisphenol-A and the Great Divide: A Review of Controversies in the Field of Endocrine Disruption
TL;DR: This review has covered the above-mentioned controversies plus six additional issues that have divided scientists in the field of BPA research, namely: mechanisms of bisphenol-A action; levels of human exposure; 3) routes of human Exposure; 4) pharmacokinetic models of Bpa metabolism; 5) effects of B PA on exposed animals; and 6) links between BPA and cancer.

TL;DR: Higher BPA exposure, reflected in higher urinary concentrations of BPA, may be associated with avoidable morbidity in the community-dwelling adult population.

TL;DR: Available data from biomonitoring studies clearly indicate that the general population is exposed to BPA and is at risk from internal exposure to unconjugated BPA.

Human exposure to bisphenol A (BPA).
TL;DR: The reported levels of BPA in human fluids are higher than the BPA concentrations reported to stimulate molecular endpoints in vitro and appear to be within an order of magnitude of the levels needed to induce effects in animal models.

Basic anatomical and physiological data for use in radiological protection : reference values
TL;DR: This report presents detailed information on age- and gender-related differences in the anatomical and physiological characteristics of reference individuals to provide needed input to prospective dosimetry calculations for radiation protection purposes for both workers and members of the general public.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exposure of the U.S. population to bisphenol A and 4-tertiary-octylphenol: 2003-2004
TL;DR: Urine concentrations of total BPA differed by race/ethnicity, age, sex, and household income, and these first U.S. population representative concentration data for urinary BPA and tOP should help guide public health research priorities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Basic anatomical and physiological data for use in radiological protection: reference values ICRP Publication 89: Approved by the Commission in September 2001
TL;DR: The reference values provided needed input to prospective dosimetry calculations for radiation protection purposes for both workers and members of the general public as mentioned in this paper, and the reference values were used for both male and female subjects of six different ages: newborn, 1 year, 5 years, 10 years, 15 years, and adult.
Journal ArticleDOI
An extensive new literature concerning low-dose effects of bisphenol A shows the need for a new risk assessment.
TL;DR: It is proposed that a new risk assessment for BPA is needed based on the extensive new literature reporting adverse effects in animals at doses below the current reference dose, and the high rate of leaching of BPA from food and beverage containers, leading to widespread human exposure.
