Abstract
Additives, such as bisphenol A (BPA) that are added to packaging material to enhance functionality may migrate into food products creating a concern for food safety. BPA has been linked to various chronic diseases, such as: diabetes, obesity, prostate cancer, impaired thyroid function, and several other metabolic disorders. To safeguard consumers, BPA migration limits have been defined by regulatory bodies. However, it is important to address the underlying factors and mechanisms so that they can be optimized in order to minimize BPA migration. In this review, we determine the relative importance of the factors, i.e. temperature, contact time, pH, food composition, storage time and temperature, package type, cleaning, and aging, and packaging damage that promote BPA migration in foods. Packaging material seems to be the key source of BPA and the temperature (applied during food production, storage, can sterilization and cleaning processes) was the critical driver influencing BPA migration.
为增强功能而添加到包装材料中的添加剂(如双酚 A (BPA))可能会迁移到食品中,从而引发食品安全问题。双酚 A 与多种慢性疾病有关,如糖尿病、肥胖症、前列腺癌、甲状腺功能受损和其他一些代谢紊乱。为了保障消费者的安全,监管机构规定了双酚 A 迁移限量。然而,重要的是要解决潜在的因素和机制,以便对其进行优化,从而最大限度地减少双酚 A 迁移。在本综述中,我们确定了温度、接触时间、pH 值、食品成分、储存时间和温度、包装类型、清洁和老化以及包装损坏等因素在促进食品中双酚 A 迁移方面的相对重要性。包装材料似乎是双酚 A 迁移的主要来源,而温度(食品生产、储存、罐头消毒和清洗过程中的温度)则是影响双酚 A 迁移的关键因素。
期刊介绍:
Biotechnological techniques, from fermentation to genetic manipulation, have become increasingly relevant to the food and beverage, fuel production, chemical and pharmaceutical, and waste management industries. Consequently, academic as well as industrial institutions need to keep abreast of the concepts, data, and methodologies evolved by continuing research. This journal provides a forum of critical evaluation of recent and current publications and, periodically, for state-of-the-art reports from various geographic areas around the world. Contributing authors are recognized experts in their fields, and each article is reviewed by an objective expert to ensure accuracy and objectivity of the presentation.
