Photodegradation of bisphenol A in aqueous medium : monitoring and identification of by-products by liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry.

Resumo
Environmental bisphenol A (BPA) contamination is currently a matter of concern. This compound can disrupt the endocrine system by mimicking natural hormones and cause adverse effects on different organisms. In addition, it has been suggested that BPA can impair brain development, especially in fetuses and children. To efficiently remove BPA from contaminated water and wastewaters, several emerging technologies have been developed. Most are based on photodegradation. However, by-products resulting from the application of such methods have not been properly characterized.
