Article Number: 2010578
Description: Migration of chemical substances from the packaging material into the food is regulated according to EU regulation 10/2011. Especially the reports of Bisphenol A (BPA), having migrated for example from polycarbonate baby bottles into the infant milk formula, awoke public interest. As a result some countries prohibit BPA releasing articles which are intended to be used for infants and children under the age of three. The ability to reliably determine the content of BPA can be tested and certified with this proficiency testing, e.g. by CEN/TS 13130-13
