Migration of photoinitiators, phthalates and plasticizers
The study of migration of the compounds from a baking paper to Tenax at high temperatures (150 and 250 °C) evidenced an increment of migration when increasing temperature, except for the most volatile analytes. Finally, the migration to foodstuffs was studied using fully validated analytical protocols.
Migration of plasticizers from paper packaging inks to tenax
Gas chromatography (GC) was used to measure the migration of four plasticizers from inks in lad-made printing paper to food stimulant (Tenax) at different temperature (50°C, 70°C and...
Migration of photoinitiators, phthalates and plasticizers
Migration of photoinitiators, phthalates and plasticizers from paper and cardboard materials into different simulants and foodstuffs Migration of photoinitiators, phthalates and plasticizers from paper and cardboard materials into different simulants and foodstuffs Food Chem. 2025 May 15;344:128597. doi: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2025.128597.
Migration of photoinitiators, phthalates and plasticizers
The migration of photoinitiators, phthalates and plasticizers from two paper and cardboard materials into food simulants (50% and 95% EtOH and Tenax) and foodstuffs (rice, cereals and milk powder
The Use of Tenax as a Simulant for the Migration
Migration of mineral oil hydrocarbons from contaminated paperboard into the food simulants Tenax and Sorb‐Star—A comparison R. Fengler, L. Gruber Packaging Technology and Science 2025 A previous work dealt with surrogates and food simulants to evaluate mineral oil hydrocarbons (MOH) migration processes from paper‐based food packaging.
- Is there a correlation between plasticizers and food packaging?
- In all cases there was a good correlation between the plasticizers found in the printing ink from the film and those in the food. Wide variations were found, however, in the amounts and types of plasticizers used in printed packaging of the same brand of retail food product purchased from different regions of the country.
- What temperature does tenax migrate from baking paper to milk powder?
- Migration from baking paper to tenax at 150 °C was high and increased at 250 °C. Tenax mimicked migration to rice and cereals, 95% EtOH was suitable for milk powder.
- Does temperature affect tenax migration?
- The study of migration of the compounds from a baking paper to Tenax at high temperatures (150 and 250 °C) evidenced an increment of migration when increasing temperature, except for the most volatile analytes. Finally, the migration to foodstuffs was studied using fully validated analytical protocols.
- What is the migration of plasticizer?
- The migration of plasticizer increased with storage time of the wrapped product; for dibutyl phthalate, for example, levels increased from 0.2 to 6.7 mg/kg over the period from 0 to 180 days storage of a chocolate-coated confectionery product.
- Do food packaging inks migrate to the internal side?
- Conclusions Even though inks are usually placed on the external side of food packaging, migration of ink components to the internal side has been observed. This was due mainly to a set-off phenomenum during the materials storage.
- Do photoinitiators migrate in food packaging?
- A review on migration of photoinitiators in food packaging has been reported, indicating the main factors affecting the migration ( Aparicio & Elizalde, 2015 ).
