Abstract

Daily intakes of 12 phenols which are possible endocrine disruptors were estimated in hospital meals from 2000 to 2001. 4-Nonylphenol (4-NP (mix)) and bisphenol A (BPA) were detected at levels of 5.0 to 19.4 ng/g and 0.2 to 1.1 ng/g, respectively. 4-teri-Butylphenol, 4-n-pentylphenol, 4 -tert-pentylphenol, 4-n-hexylphenol, 4-n-heptylphenol and 4-teri-octylphenol were detected at levels of 0.1 to 2.4 μg/g. The daily intakes of 4-NP (mix) and BPA were 5.8 μg/day and 0.42 μg/day, respectively. The daily intakes of other phenols were less than 1 μg/day.
