Abstract
The aim was to investigate the association between bisphenol A (BPA), 25-hydroxy vitamin D [25(OH)D], and 1α,25 dihydroxy vitamin D [1,25(OH)2D] levels in the cord blood of newborn babies. BPA was measured by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and vitamin D levels by commercial ELISA or ECLIA kits. BPA and Vitamin D levels were grouped according to tertile values. In the cord blood, the median 25(OH)D level was 14.9 ng/mL (IQR: 8.5–20.8) and median 1,25(OH)2D level was 53.3 pg/dL (IQR: 42.3–98.4). 25(OH)D levels were < 20 ng/mL in 76.5% of the babies. BPA was detectable in 72.4% of the cord blood samples; median BPA level was 1.57 ng/mL (IQR: < DL-4.05 ng/mL). Frequencies of vitamin D deficiency and frequencies of cases having the highest tertile active vitamin D levels were similar in groups of BPA tertiles in both univariate and multivariate analysis. In conclusion, both BPA exposure and insufficient vitamin D transfer via cord blood are common in newborns. Bisphenol A levels were not correlated with vitamin D levels in cord blood of healthy mother-fetus pairs.
