  • What are the challenges associated with measuring plasticizers in food products?
  • One of the major challenges associated with the measurements of plasticizers in food products is extensive contamination of laboratory supplies and products that contribute to background levels of contamination .
  • Are there plasticizers in fast food?
  • In this preliminary exposure assessment study, we report detectable levels of plasticizers in all foods sampled from several major U.S. fast food chains. DnBP and DEHP were the most frequently detected ortho-phthalates. DEHT was the most frequently detected replacement plasticizer and was detected at much higher concentrations than other chemicals.
  • Are plasticisers present in PVC products authorised as food contact materials?
  • Carlos KS, de Jager LS, Begley TH. Investigation of the primary plasticisers present in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) products currently authorised as food contact materials. Food Addit Contam Part A Chem Anal Control Expo Risk Assess. 2018;35:1214–22.
  • Are plasticizers a public health concern?
  • Plasticizers were not detected in packaging except epoxidized soybean oil in liquid formula lids. Human exposure to plasticizers is a significant public health concern. Nevertheless, sources of such exposures are poorly characterized. This study adds valuable information for estimating legacy and alternative plasticizer exposures from foods.
  • Which plasticizers are found in fast food gloves and food items?
  • Fries were collected from Hamburger Chain A only. Comparison of plasticizers DEHT (represented by black symbols) and DINCH (represented by gray symbols) found in gloves and food items sampled from selected fast food restaurants in San Antonio, TX. Gloves and food items were sampled from the same restaurant location and at the same time.
  • Is food processing a source of plasticizer contamination?
  • We also document that food processing may be a source of plasticizer contamination in foods. Ortho-Phthalate diesters (also referred to as phthalates and phthalic acid esters) are high production volume additives used in plastics to increase flexibility; they are also present in some food packaging, inks, adhesives, and lubricants.
