This study analyzed six xenoestrogens (hormone-disrupting chemicals including phthalates, BPA, and alkylphenols) in atmospheric particles at a university campus in China from 2021 to 2023. BPA was the most prevalent xenoestrogen detected, with concentrations of these chemicals being significantly higher in winter than summer, and the overall cancer and non-cancer health risks were below threshold limits for the general population. However, infants and young children showed significantly higher risk values compared to other age groups, indicating they face greater health risks from atmospheric exposure to these endocrine disruptors. The research provides important data for developing policies to reduce health risks from airborne xenoestrogen exposure, particularly for vulnerable populations like children.

This population-based case-control study investigated whether occupational exposure to alkylphenolic compounds—endocrine-disrupting chemicals widely used in industry—is associated with breast and prostate cancer. The study included over 5,600 participants and found that occupational exposure to alkylphenolic compounds was modestly associated with increased breast cancer risk (23% increase), particularly from exposure to domestic cleaning products and nonylphenol ethoxylates. No significant associations were found between alkylphenolic compound exposure and prostate cancer overall, except among men exposed through cosmetics and personal hygiene products. The authors conclude these findings suggest a modest link between occupational alkylphenolic compound exposure and breast cancer that requires further confirmation in additional studies.
