Dietary exposure of children to Bisphenol A through feeding bottles under real use conditions was investigated. Polycarbonate is widely used in the manufacture of food containers and Bisphenol A can leach out into liquid food material. Three sets of six feeding bottles each from different brands were used in the study. In all cases the bottle treatment and the leaching conditions were selected so that each set of six bottles was subjected to real use conditions and for each liquid (milk, apple juice and water) a new set of six bottles was used.
