Consumers are exposed to a range of mineral oil hydrocarbons (MOH) via food. Mineral oil
saturated hydrocarbons (MOSH) consist of linear and branched alkanes, and alkyl …

Mineral oil hydrocarbons (MOH) are composed of saturated hydrocarbons (MOSH) and
aromatic hydrocarbons (MOAH). Due to the complexity of the MOH composition, their …

Work on mineral oil hydrocarbons (MOH) contaminating food is reviewed up to about 2010,
when the subject received broad publicity. It covers the period of the main discoveries and …

Humans are daily exposed to mineral oil saturated hydrocarbons (MOSH) from the diet. We
exposed female Fischer 344 rats to a broad mixture and sub-fractions of MOSH. Chemical …

Key issues around the evaluation of risks to humans from mineral oils in food and feedstuffs
are discussed. MOHs (MOAH and MOSH) occur in food due to intentional use …

The evaluation of mineral oils by the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives
(JECFA) provided high acceptable daily intakes for classes largely falling into the mass …

For a few years, mineral oils and their potential adverse health effects have been a constant
issue of concern in many regulatory areas such as food, cosmetics, other consumer …

Background In recent years there have been significant advancements in the understanding
