BPS has been found to interfere with mammalian hormonal activity.
To a greater extent than BPA, BPS alters nerve cell creation in the zebrafish hypothalamus and causes behavioral hyperactivity in exposed zebrafish larvae (Molina-Molina et al., 2013; Kinch et al., 2015).
These latter results were observed at the extremely low chemical concentrations of 0.0068uM.
This is 1,000-fold lower than the official U.S. levels of acceptable human exposure.
The dose was chosen by the researchers since it is the concentration of BPA in the river that passes their laboratory.
Studies show micro doses of certain plastics cause cancer or other conditions while big doses have no or a lesser effects
EPA admits this on certain chemicals

Studies also have shown that chronic exposure to low doses of certain POPs can result in reproductive and immune system deficits. Exposure to high levels of certain POPs chemicals - higher than normally encountered by humans and wildlife - can cause serious damage or death.
