Assessment of estrogenic compounds in paperboard for dry food packaging with the ERE-CALUX bioassay
specific analysis. Estrogenic activities ranged from 682 ± 66 pg E2 eq./dm2 to 3250 ± 400 pg E2 eq./dm2 for “worst case” extraction and from 347 ± 30 pg E2 eq./dm2 to 1350 ± 70 pg E2 eq./dm2 for migration ...
Evaluation of the potential health risks of substances migrating from polycarbonate replacement baby bottles.
non-intentionally added substances). For the listed substances, concentrations in the migration solutions were compared to their respective specific migration limits (SML) (when applicable). Migration of all ...
Study of the possible migration risks of food contact materials for children under 3 years
a selection of representative baby bottles. For migration testing, the use of simulants is prescribed in the legislation to mimic the testing of real foods. Specifically, a mixture of water-EtOH (50:50, v/v) is ...
Evaluation of the migration of chemicals from baby bottles under standardised and duration testing conditions.
below their respective specific migration limits (SML s). The reference experiment confirmed the migration of some of the compounds previously detected in the EU repetitive-use experiment, though at lower ...
Development and application of a non-target extraction method for the analysis of migrating compounds from plastic baby bottles by GC-MS.
(unknown) chemicals from food contact materials, with emphasis on baby bottles. In this context, the use of simulants is prescribed in the legislation to mimic the testing of real foods. Specifically, we ...
In vitro model to study the endocrine disrupting activity of migration products from plastic food contact materials
luciferase gene, as a reporter gene, and a DNA responsive element specific to the human oestrogen receptor. The biological activity of a chemical compound is monitored by the measurement of light emitted by ...
