Modeling the migration of chemicals from food contact materials to food: The MERLIN-expo/VERMEER toolbox
simulations showed a good match between predicted and experimental values. The tested models can be used to provide insights in the amount and the type of toxicological data that are needed for the safety ...
Migration of mineral oil from cardboard packaging for food: Identification of the hazards and assessment of the exposure of the Belgian population
a different toxicological profile, the two fractions were quantified separately using an online combination of liquid chromatography and gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (online LC- GC- FID). ...
Prioritizing substances of genotoxic concern for in-depth safety evaluation using non-animal approaches: The example of food contact materials.
potential as well as oral bioavailability and being used in primary food packaging materials. The current animal-free strategy proved useful for the priority ranking of printed paper and board FCM substances, ...
Assessment of estrogenic compounds in paperboard for dry food packaging with the ERE-CALUX bioassay
Chemosphere, Volume 221, Number 106 (2019) Keywords: ERE-CALUX Estrogens FCM Food packaging; Paperboard Phthalates Abstract: Paperboard used as packaging, a non-inert material, can transfer chemicals into food. ...
A novel genotoxin-specific qPCR array based on the metabolically competent human HepaRG™ cell line as a rapid and reliable tool for improved in vitro hazard assessment
for pharmaceutical, chemical, and consumer products, as afflicted compounds have to be (prematurely) abandoned or further tested on animals. Using the metabolically competent human HepaRG ™ cell line and toxicogenomics ...
Coatings in food contact materials: Potential source of genotoxic contaminants?
harmonized EU regulation exists on chemicals used in coatings for food contact materials (FCM). Therefore, these substances need to comply with the general provisions of EU Regulation 1935/2004 and, if ...
(Q)SAR tools for priority setting: A case study with printed paper and board food contact material substances.
based on the combination of multiple (quantitative) structure-activity relationship ((Q) SAR) tools. Non-evaluated substances used in printed paper and board food contact materials (FCM) were selected for ...
Printed paper and board food contact materials as a potential source of food contamination.
materials (FCM) are estimated to be the largest source of food contamination. Apart from plastics, the most commonly used FCM are made of printed paper and board. Unlike their plastic counterparts, these are ...
Evaluation of the potential health risks of substances migrating from polycarbonate replacement baby bottles.
prohibited the use of bisphenol A in the production of polycarbonate (PC) baby bottles, many other materials have replaced PC for the manufacture of this type of food contact materials. In the present study, ...
