Effects of two Bisphenol A replacement compounds, 1,7-bis (4-hydroxyphenylthio)-3,5-dioxaheptane and Bisphenol AF, on development and mRNA expression in chicken embryos
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Concerns about the estrogenic properties of Bisphenol A (BPA) have led to increased efforts to find BPA replacements. 1,7-bis(4-Hydroxyphenylthio)-3,5-dioxaheptane (DD-70) and 4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylidene) diphenol (bisphenol AF, BPAF) are two potential chemical substitutes for BPA; however, toxicity data for these chemicals in avian species are limited. To determine effects on avian embryonic viability, development, and hepatic mRNA expression at two distinct developmental periods (mid-incubation [day 11] and term [day 20]), two egg injection studies were performed. Test chemicals were injected into the air cell of unincubated, fertilized chicken eggs at concentrations ranging from 0-88.2 µg/g for DD-70 and 0-114 µg/g egg for BPAF. Embryonic concentrations of DD-70 and BPAF decreased at mid-incubation and term compared to injected concentrations suggesting embryonic metabolism. Exposure to DD-70 (40.9 and 88.2 µg/g) and BPAF (114 µg/g) significantly decreased embryonic viability at mid-incubation. Exposure to DD-70 (88.2 µg/g) decreased embryo mass and increased gallbladder mass, while 114 µg/g BPAF resulted in increased gallbladder mass in term embryos. Expression of hepatic genes related to xenobiotic metabolism, lipid homeostasis, and response to estrogen were altered at both developmental stages. Given the importance of identifying suitable BPA replacements, the present study provides novel, whole animal avian toxicological data for two replacement compounds, DD-70 and BPAF.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
