• Partitioning, bioavailability and effects of oestrogens and xeno-oestrogens in the aquatic environment (2005, positive): “Alkylphenol polyethoxylates (APEOs), based mainly on nonyl-and to a lesser extent, octyl-phenols (Figure 2), are non-ionic surfactants which have been used for more than half a century for domestic, industrial and agricultural purposes (review by Ying et al., 2002b).”
• Fate, behavior and effects of surfactants and their degradation products in the environment. (2006, background): “…articles on the occurrence of various surfactants and their degradation products in the environment (e.g., Fendinger et al., 1995; Holt et al., 1995; Ahel et al., 1996, 2000; Jensen, 1999; Matthijs et al., 1999; Bruno et al., 2002; Ying et al., 2002; Knepper et al., 2003; Berryman et al., 2004).”
• Exposure of the U.S. Population to Bisphenol A and 4-tertiary-Octylphenol: 2003–2004 (2007, background): “…ingestion of food containing BPA (Kang et al. 2006; Vandenberg et al. 2007). tOP is both a degradation product of and an intermediate in the manufacture of octylphenol ethoxylates, which are nonionic surfactants used in detergents, pesticide formulations, and other applications (Ying et al. 2002).”
• Review of risk from potential emerging contaminants in UK groundwater. (2012, background): “Degradation of APEs in WTWs generates more persistent shorter-chain APEs and alkyl phenols such as NP, OP and alkylphenol mono- to tri-ethoxylates (Ying et al., 2002).”
• Urinary Concentrations of Bisphenol A and 4-Nonylphenol in a Human Reference Population (2004, background): “NP is estrogenic in vitro and in vivo (Kwack et al. 2002), interferes with the estrous cycle and pubertal onset in rats (Kim et al. 2002; Laws et al. 2000), and shows aquatic toxicity at low (micrograms per liter) concentrations (Hemmer et al. 2001; Ying et al. 2002).”
