Guidance in selecting analytical techniques for identification and quantification of non-intentionally added substances (NIAS) in food contact materials (FCMS)
guidelines that need to be taken into consideration when assessing NIAS. Different approaches to analysing NIAS in FCM s are reviewed and compared. The approaches for preparing the sample for analysis, ...
Particle size analysis of pristine food-grade titanium dioxide and E 171 in confectionery products: Interlaboratory testing of a SP-ICP-MS screening method and confirmation with transmission electron microscopy.
labelling of food ingredient to indicate the presence of engineered nanomaterials there is now a need for standardised and validated methods to appropriately size and quantify (nano)particles in food ...
Optimization and validation of an analytical method for the quantification of short- and medium-chained chlorinated paraffins in food by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry
quantification (LOQ s) estimated for food samples ranged from 0.7 to 6.0 ng/g wet weight (ww) for ∑ SCCP s and 1.3–12 ng/g ww for ∑ MCCP s. The applicability of the optimized protocol was assessed in each of the ...
Overabundance of unhealthy food advertising targeted to children on Guatemalan television.
Int (2020) Abstract: To assess, for the first time, the extent (by hour channel) and nature (e.g. persuasive marketing techniques (PMT) and health-related claims) of unhealthy food advertisements (ads) ...
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 ...
Development and application of a non-target extraction method for the analysis of migrating compounds from plastic baby bottles by GC-MS.
the nature of (other) substances migrating from the polymeric alternatives to polycarbonate is much less known. Therefore, there is an urgent need to assess the risks associated with the migration of ...
