摘要

Compounds destroying the endocrine system are a dangerous class of pollutants that are found in aquatic environments such as surface,groundwater and sewage and landfills.Bisphenol A(BPA)is a known endocrine disruptor that is acutely toxic to living organisms.BPA is still used in the manufacture of sunscreen lotions,nail polishes,body cleansers,shaving creams and lotions,in addition to its long-known other industrial applications.The paper presents the results of studies on the photolysis of BPA from water using ultraviolet radiation and an oxidizing agent.
