Bisphenol A and its halogenated analogues are commonly used industrial chemicals with strong toxicological effects over many organisms. In this study, metabolic fate of bisphenol A and its halogenated analogues were evaluated with Cunninghamella elegans ATCC36112. Bisphenol A and related analogues were rapidly transformed into several metabolites by C. elegans within 2–4 days. Detailed analysis of metabolites reveals that both phase I and II metabolism occurred in C. elegans. Cytochrome P450…

Biodegradation of octyltin compounds by Cochliobolus lunatus and influence of xenobiotics on fungal fatty acid composition
Metabolism of an Insecticide Fenitrothion by Cunninghamella elegans ATCC36112.
TLDR
The ability of C. elegans to mimic mammalian metabolism would help to elucidate the metabolic fates of organic compounds occurring in mammalian liver cells and evaluate their toxicity and potential adverse effects.
Bisphenol A in the environment and recent advances in biodegradation by fungi.
Monitoring the biodegradability of bisphenol A and its metabolic intermediates by manometric respirometry tests
TLDR
Because the oxidation rate of BPA by BPA-acclimated activated sludge limits the rate of the whole biodegradation pathway, the accumulation of metabolic intermediates 4HAP, 4HB, and 4HBA would be negligible.
Fate of Bisphenol A in Terrestrial and Aquatic Environments.
TLDR
Biological and nonbiological processes that lead to BPA transformation and degradation are summarized, and research needs to advance predictive understanding of the longevity of BPA and its transformation products in environmental systems are identified.
Biotransformation of isoflavones by Aspergillus niger and Cunninghamella elegans
TLDR
The metabolism of is oflavone and 4′-fluoroisoflavone were tested with Aspergillus niger and Cunninghamella elegans and selected metabolites were confirmed by synthetic standards, indicating the region-selective hydroxylation on initial metabolism ofIsoflavones.
NTP Research Report on Biological Activity of Bisphenol A (BPA) Structural Analogues and Functional Alternatives
TLDR
Analysis of data available from the high throughput screening programs Tox21/ToxCast showed that in general, BPA analogues and derivatives are more structurally and biologically similar to BPA, and to each other, than to E2.
Bisphenol A degradation by Ralstonia eutropha in the absence and presence of phenol
Comparative study of fatty acids composition during cortexolone hydroxylation and tributyltin chloride (TBT) degradation in the filamentous fungus Cunninghamella elegans
Biological and Biomedical Aspects of Metal Phenolates
TLDR
The phenol-containing wet-adhesive byssal proteins from some clams and mussels has stimulated further development of adhesive materials for medical and other applications; and the study of binding of transferrin with nanoparticles affords better understanding of protein–mineral interfacial interactions.

Processing of bisphenol A by plant tissues: glucosylation by cultured BY-2 cells and glucosylation/translocation by plants of Nicotiana tabacum.
TLDR
These metabolites were accumulated in the leaves after 4 h exposure, indicating that tobacco seedlings absorbed BPA through their root systems, metabolized to its beta-glucoside and translocated the metabolites to their leaves.

TLDR
The results indicate that BPA itself rather than its metabolite acts as a xeno-oestrogen and that 3-OHBPA is cytotoxic, possibly acting via reactive semiquinone and/or quinone metabolites, rather than axeno- oestrogenic mechanism, in MCF-7 cells.
Acute toxicity, mutagenicity, and estrogenicity of biodegradation products of bisphenol‐A
TLDR
It was concluded that biodegradation can remarkably reduce the toxic effects of BPA.
Metabolism and kinetics of bisphenol a in humans at low doses following oral administration.
TLDR
The efficient glucuronidation of bisphenol A and the rapid excretion of the formed glucuronide result in a low body burden of the estrogenic bispenol A in humans following oral absorption of low doses.

The relative bioavailability and metabolism of bisphenol A in rats is dependent upon the route of administration.
TLDR
A route dependency of BPA bioavailability in rats is demonstrated, with oral administration resulting in the lowest bioavailability, and explanation for the apparent route differences in estrogenic potency observed for BPA is offered.
Absorption and Metabolism of Bisphenol A, a Possible Endocrine Disruptor, in the Aquatic Edible Plant, Water Convolvulus (Ipomoea aquatica)
TLDR
Water convolvulus, a vegetable, absorbed bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine disruptor, from the medium one week later, indicating that BPA had been metabolized in the plant, and 2H-NMR analyses of MeOH extracts and hydrolyzates showed the presence of metabolites other than the glucoside.
