Project Details
Description
Bisphenol A is a major industrial chemical used in the production of different food contact materials where the main applications are polycarbonate plastics and epoxy-phenolic resins. Polycabonate is widely used in infant feeding bottles and in some tableware whereas epoxy resins are used as internal lining for food and beverages cans and other articles.
Bisphenol A is an estrogenic endocrine-disrupting chemical. The actual specific migration limit is 0.6 mg/kg food based on a temporary TDI of 0.01 mg/kg bw.
The aim of this project is to determine the level of bisphenol A migration into selected foods and food simulants to estimate the human exposure to bisphenol A in the Danish population. Development and validation of an analytical method with LC-MS/MS is a part of this project.
