Multiple cycles through the dishwasher most effective at removing BPA from Tritan bottles
As part of a laboratory experiment, Rebecca Holmes examined water bottles that had been acquired from abroad expecting to find bisphenol A (BPA), a human-made component commonly found in polycarbonate plastics used to make consumer products.
What she found, however, was that those water bottles were just fine, yet some control bottles purchased in the United States and supposedly BPA-free actually contained traces of the chemical now thought to negatively impact heart health.
Holmes, a researcher formerly in the laboratory of Hong-Sheng Wang, PhD, professor in the University of Cincinnati Department of Pharmacology and Systems Physiology, was working on her master s degree in molecular, cellular and biochemical pharmacology in the College of Medicine at the time.
Study warns to wash new plastic bottles or risk sneaky BPA exposure
Plastic bottles are a common sight and many people are likely to use them at some point. Risky plastics that contain BPA have been phased out due to their potential impact on health, but the problematic chemical can still make its appearance at times. That’s according to a new study from The Ohio State University, which found that consumers should thoroughly wash new plastic bottles or risk exposure to the substance.
Many studies have linked the chemical BPA with a variety of potentially damaging health impacts, including everything from significant cardiovascular changes to hormone disruption, infertility, and fetal development changes. Because of this, the US, Canada, and Europe have various bans on the use of the substance and many companies choose BPA-free plastics for food and drink containers.
