The effect of BPA-treated water on the small intestine via an in vivo study
Since the major route of BPA exposure is via the oral route, BPA may have effects on the gastrointestinal tract, especially on the intestinal barrier, where most digestion and absorption processes occur. In this study, the effects of BPA‐treated water on the small intestine (SI) and SI tight junctio...

Since the major route of BPA exposure is via the oral route, BPA may have effects on the gastrointestinal tract, especially on the intestinal barrier, where most digestion and absorption processes occur. In this study, the effects of BPA‐treated water on the small intestine (SI) and SI tight junction proteins (TJPs) of both pregnant Sprague–Dawley rats and their fetuses were inves-tigated. Previously, hybrid photocatalytic filtration treatment by a visible light driven N‐doped TiO2 membrane has successfully removed up to 81.6% of BPA in water. The effect of BPA‐untreated (5.00 ± ppm) and BPA‐treated water (0.9 ± ppm) after 21 days of exposure on the jejunum and ileum, as well as the expressions of claudin proteins, were investigated by Western blotting (WB) and hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) in order to investigate the potential of the photo-catalytic membrane in removing the detrimental effect of BPA.
