Dietary exposure of the Belgian population to mineral oil
oil in food is convoluted since it comprises MOSH (saturated hydrocarbons) and variable amounts of mainly alkylated MOAH (aromatic hydrocarbons). Both fractions have a different toxicological profile ...
Analysis of mineral oil in food: An analytical challenge
challenging since mineral oil is a very complex mixture. Among the many different substances present in mineral oil, two main types can be distinguished: the saturated hydrocarbons (MOSH) comprising a complex ...
Assessing the endocrine activity of PAHs using the DRE-, ERE- and PPARγ CALUX bioassays
Source: IMEKOFOODS 4 (2019) Abstract: Introduction Mineral oils are a complex mixture of organic compounds, consisting of two main types: the saturated hydrocarbons (MOSH) and the aromatic hydrocarbons ...
Modular Method for the Determination of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Spices and Dried Herbs by Gas Chromatography–Tandem Mass Spectrometry
Keywords: Dried herbs gas chromatography Mass Spectrometry PAHs Spices Abstract: This paper describes a method for quantification of the four regulated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH ...
Migration of mineral oil from cardboard packaging for food: Identification of the hazards and assessment of the exposure of the Belgian population
oil food contamination problem in Belgium, an extensive market survey was conducted including a wide variety of matrices. As saturated hydrocarbons (MOSH) and aromatic hydrocarbons (MOAH) have ...
