After migration in 95% ethanol (food simulant) at 70° C for 2 h (accelerated conditions), the
cytotoxicity and endocrine-disruption activity of 42 food contact silicone products (FCSPs) …

Herein, a novel aptasensor was constructed for ultrasensitive detection of bisphenol A
(BPA). In this method, an electrochemically mediated atom transfer radical polymerization …

Paper and cardboard for food packaging are non-inert materials that can transfer chemical
compounds by migration into food. Phthalates, namely dibutyl phthalate (DBP), diisobutyl …

Bio-based food contact materials (BBFCMs) are derived from biological renewable
resources (animal or plant biomass). They consist of polymers directly extracted or removed …

Many difficulties relating to food safety have been solved thanks to the employment of strong
mass spectrometric detectors in conjunction with liquid chromatography. In this study …

Background Food contact articles are used in our everyday life and information regarding
the potential health hazards of migrating chemicals for humans is scarce. In this study, an …

Recycling systems are unable to remove efficiently all potential contaminants acquired
along the recycling chain. Therefore, contaminants may potentially exist in recycled food …
