However, its endocrine-disrupting properties, reproductive toxicity, and potential immunological and developmental toxicities have raised health concerns. BPA can migrate into the human body through food contact materials and everyday items, posing significant risks, particularly to infants, pregnant women, and immunocompromised groups. Consequently, BPA has been included in the global regulatory focus list for stringent control.
