  Rather than water bottles, polycarbonate coffee mugs might a more important exposure route for bis phenol A which is the EDC of interest leaching from polycarbonate. The then Environment Agency (now Ministry of Environment)ten years ago was planning to promote the use of reusable polycarbonate bottles for beverages.
