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 ...

Assessment of estrogenic compounds in paperboard for dry food packaging with the ERE-CALUX bioassay

a dry food migration experiment. By measuring an overall estrogenic activity, known and unknown estrogenic chemicals and mixture effects are taken into account and the data are compared to molecule ...

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

approaches, we have developed an upgraded, innovative, and proprietary gene classifier. This gene classifier is based on transcriptomic changes induced by 12 genotoxic and 12 non-genotoxic reference compounds ...

Coatings in food contact materials: Potential source of genotoxic contaminants?

human health. First, an inventory was assembled containing all substances potentially used in coatings. Afterwards, the genotoxic potential of the non-evaluated substances was predicted in silico using ...

(Q)SAR tools for priority setting: A case study with printed paper and board food contact material substances.

Chemicals Paper Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship SOFTWARE Abstract: Over the last years, more stringent safety requirements for an increasing number of chemicals across many regulatory fields ...

Printed paper and board food contact materials as a potential source of food contamination.

and board FCM. In the current study, an inventory combining the substances which may be used in printed paper and board FCM, was created. More than 6000 unique compounds were identified, the majority ...

Study of the possible migration risks of food contact materials for children under 3 years

the possible alternatives to PC FCM s for children under 3 y old on the Belgian market. These articles were documented by an initial market survey in baby-shops, supermarkets and pharmacies. 24 baby ...

Evaluation of the migration of chemicals from baby bottles under standardised and duration testing conditions.

bottles in the European Union (EU), alternative materials, such as polypropylene, polyethersulphone, Tritan™ copolyester, etc., have appeared on the market. Based on an initial screening and in vitro ...

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 ...

In vitro model to study the endocrine disrupting activity of migration products from plastic food contact materials

ALTPOLYCARB project which aims to study the migration products of alternative to polycarbonate and their endocrine disruptor activities. The first part was to have an overview of the different polymers ...
