Systematic evidence on migrating and extractable food contact chemicals: Most chemicals detected in food contact materials are not listed for use

Birgit Geueke et al.

Summary: Food packaging plays a crucial role in today's globalized food system, but it can also contribute to the migration of hazardous chemicals into food. In order to assess the impact of food contact materials (FCMs) on human health, it is necessary to identify the chemicals they contain, known as food contact chemicals (FCCs). This study compiled a comprehensive database of migrating and extractable FCCs (FCCmigex) based on information from 1210 studies. The findings reveal that 2881 FCCs have been detected in six FCM groups, with 65% of these being previously unknown. Plastic, with 1975 detected FCCs, is the most extensively studied FCM. This knowledge expands our understanding of FCCs to 14,153 chemicals and can contribute to the development of non-hazardous FCMs, promoting safer food production and supporting a circular economy.

An overview of the occurrence, fate, and human risks of the bisphenol-A present in plastic materials, components, and products

John N. Hahladakis et al.

Summary: The investigation of human exposure to bisphenol-A (BPA) over the lifecycle of BPA-based plastic materials, components, and products is necessary. Current regulations and safety limits may underestimate the potential health implications of BPA exposure. Controversies regarding dose-response curves, sources and pathways of exposure, and the quality of toxicological studies hinder the regulation of BPA-based plastic materials. Further research and collaboration among stakeholders are needed to explore the long-term impacts of BPA and introduce restrictions to BPA-based products.

Migration of endocrine-disrupting chemicals into food from plastic packaging materials: an overview of chemical risk assessment, techniques to monitor migration, and international regulations

Hooi-Theng Ong et al.

Summary: Plastic packaging materials (PPMs) play a crucial role in protecting and maintaining the quality of food. However, additives and chemical reactions during the manufacturing process can result in the production of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), which may migrate into food and pose risks to food safety. Therefore, chemical risk assessment and regulatory control are important measures to reduce human exposure to these harmful substances.

Migration of Irganox 1010, Irganox 1076, and Titanium dioxide into Doogh and corresponding food simulant from laminated packaging

Elaheh Forooghi et al.

Summary: This research used HPLC and inductively coupled plasma to investigate the migration of substances from laminate films into Doogh. The results indicate that there is a possibility of migration of Irganox 1010 and TiO2 in certain storage conditions. However, the migration levels were low and the laminate packaging was proven to be safe for Doogh packaging, posing no hazards to human health.

Non-target screening for the identification of migrating compounds from reusable plastic bottles into drinking water

Selina Tisler et al.

Summary: This study found that chemicals from reusable plastic sports bottles can migrate into drinking water, including plasticizers, antioxidants, and photoinitiators. It also identified several compounds that have never been reported before, such as photoinitiators with potential endocrine-disrupting effects and the plastic additive DEET.

Summary: Research suggests that PET material can be mechanically recycled and used in food contact applications, but the development of appropriate analytical tools for safety assessment is still in its infancy. Current safety evaluation methods need further improvement to ensure full compliance of rPET with safety standards.

Effect of storage on the levels of phthalates in high-density polyethylene (HDPE) film-packaged drinking water

Prosper Naah Angnunavuri et al.

Summary: High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE)-packaged water is a popular choice for urban potable water across Africa. However, the sources and fate of priority chemical contaminants have not been adequately reported. The present study seeks to determine the effect of storage and labelling on the levels of phthalates in HDPE packaged water.

Summary: DEHA is a widely used plasticizer and environmental pollutant that has adverse effects on the liver, brain, and heart of rats. The concentrations of DEHA in dairy products were found to be highest in butter, followed by cheese and milk. PGO showed potential in alleviating the harmful effects of DEHA exposure.

Overview of intentionally used food contact chemicals and their hazards

Ksenia J. Groh et al.

Summary: Food contact materials may cause chemical contamination, and there is still limited understanding of the hazards and impacts of food contact chemicals on health and the environment. By establishing a database and evaluating hazardous substances, it was found that 1411 substances may pose similar levels of concern but have not been officially classified, indicating a significant data gap and research need in this field.

Migration of monomers, plastic additives, and non-intentionally added substances from food utensils made of melamine?formaldehyde resin following ultraviolet sterilization

Hyung Soo Kim et al.

Summary: UV sterilization of kitchenware is environmentally friendly and economical, but prolonged exposure raises concerns about the release of hazardous substances. Research showed that food utensils made of melamine-formaldehyde resin released significantly more melamine and formaldehyde after 7 days of UV irradiation. In addition, there was increased migration of plastic additives and NIAS from the resin under UV exposure compared to other synthetic resins.

Safety of Plastic Food Packaging: The Challenges about Non-Intentionally Added Substances (NIAS) Discovery, Identification and Risk Assessment

Lilian Seiko Kato et al.

Summary: Unknown non-intentionally added substances (NIAS) in plastic food packaging pose challenges in terms of identification and risk assessment, with degradation products such as antioxidants being a primary source. Analytical methods like GC-MS and LC-MS are used to assess NIAS, and bioassays combined with genotoxicity testing are effective in prioritizing unknown NIAS. Additional legislation and alignment across the chain are necessary to address NIAS in plastic food packaging.
