Food Additives & Contaminants: Part A Virtual Journal of FAC on BPA Related Papers
ثبت نشده
چکیده
This virtual Special Issue is dedicated to the 12 papers published in Food Additives and Contaminants from 2005 to date covering the topic of Bisphenol A (BPA). These publications give significant scientific insight into the current safety discussions on this compound by not only describing appropriate methods for the determination of BPA in food and food products, but also investigating the migration potential of BPA from food packaging materials into food and the occurrence of BPA in food to assess the exposure.

Survey of bisphenol A in bottled water products in Canada.
A method based on isotope dilution headspace solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry was used to assess levels of bisphenol A (BPA) in 56 samples of bottled water products sold in Canada. Levels of BPA in samples of all 51 non-polycarbonate (PC) bottled water products were lower than the method detection limit (0.50 µg l(-1)). Levels of BPA in most bottled water pro...
متن کاملSensitive determination of bisphenol A and bisphenol F in canned food using a solid-phase microextraction fibre coated with single-walled carbon nanotubes before GC/MS.
A reliable and sensitive method for simultaneous determination of bisphenol A (BPA) and bisphenol F (BPF) in canned food by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) is described after extraction and pre-concentration by a new solid-phase microextraction (SPME) adsorbent. The potential of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) as SPME adsorbent for the pre-concentration of environmental con...
متن کاملDetermination of bisphenol A in canned fatty foods by coacervative microextraction, liquid chromatography and fluorimetry.
Decanoic acid reverse micelle-based coacervates were used to provide simple, rapid and almost solventless extraction of bisphenol A (BPA) from canned fatty foods. The procedure involved the extraction of 200-400 mg of homogenised food sample with an aqueous solution containing 20% THF and 200 mg of decanoic acid, conditions under which the coacervate (around 550 microl) formed in situ and insta...
متن کاملPlastic Additives in Bodily Fluids Have Hormonal and Behavioral Effects
It is known from the ubiquitous presence of plastic additives in the environment (air, water and land) worldwide, that the human body anywhere (including the Arctic) is bombarded by these compounds daily. It is not surprising then there is ubiquitous presence of plastic additives in human bodily fluids around the world, facilitated by the numerous pathways of these organic compounds into our bo...
