“…The results obtained in the recent research are in accordance with Briggs et al [28]. They expressed that the ideal temperature for a yeast fermentation is about [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35] , such that fermentation at higher temperature or at refrigerated conditions would be decrease. Temperature rises up to the ideal growth temperature, enhances the yeast growth rate and its metabolites production.…”

“…In addition yeasts belonging to the genus Kluyveromyces are capable of growth and alcohol production at above 40 which has been categorized as thermophilic yeasts. It is believed that [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35] is the ideal range for fermentation process. In this temperature range yeast grow and ethanol production is at the maximum level [21,22].…”

Non-alcoholic beer is one of the most popular soft drink in Islamic countries. Inevitably this valuable product experiences prolonged periods of storage prior to consumption. In the recent project, four famous Iranian non-alcoholic beer brands (A, B, C and D) were stored for 6 month in three types of packaging materials (PET, glass and tin can bottles) at two temperature conditions (4 and 24 ̊C). Ethanol production during storage periods in all beer brands samples was determined. Results obtained showed that an increase in temperature during storage leads to ethanol production, significantly. Moreover storage periods had significant effect on enhancing ethanol concentration in beers. Furthermore, experimental data showed that the PET packaging materials influenced ethanol concentration in beers, impressively. In general, all three factors had significant effect on ethanol production in non-alcoholic beers however maximum ethanol concentration (0.240 w/v %) in beers did not exceed of allowed amount (0.5 % V/V) in non-alcoholic beers.

“…In water and juices bottled in PET containers, leaching of Sb has been shown to be a function of time, temperature, pH and insolation. Resulting aqueous concentrations are typically well below admissible levels for the European Union (5 g L -1 ) and the US EPA (6 g L -1 ) (Hansen and Pergantis, 2006;Shotyk et al, 2006;Greifenstein et al, 2013;Chapa-Martinez et al, 2016) but are closer to a 1 g L -1 limit recently updated as a Public Health Goal (PHG) for Californian drinking water (Qiao, 2016). Mobilisation of Sb into pre-packaged food from PET trays heated by microwave and oven has also been documented, with quantities of the metalloid in cooked meals of up to about 35 g (Haldimann et al, 2007).…”

Field-portable-XRF reveals the ubiquity of antimony in plastic consumer products

Very little systematic information exists on the occurrence and concentrations of antimony (Sb) in consumer products. In this study, a Niton XL3t field-portable-X-ray fluorescence (FP-XRF) spectrometer was deployed in situ and in the laboratory to provide quantitative information on Sb dissipated in plastic items and fixtures (including rubber, textile and foamed materials) from the domestic, school, vehicular and office settings. The metalloid was detected in 18% of over 800 measurements performed, with concentrations ranging from about 60 to 60,000μgg. The highest concentrations were encountered in white, electronic casings and in association with similar concentrations of Br, consistent with the use of antimony oxides (e.g. SbO) as synergistic flame retardants. Concentrations above 1000μgg, and with or without Br, were also encountered in paints, piping and hosing, adhesives, whiteboards, Christmas decorations, Lego blocks, document carriers, garden furniture, upholstered products and interior panels of private motor vehicles. Lower concentrations of Sb were encountered in a wide variety of items but its presence (without Br) in food tray packaging, single-use drinks bottles, straws and small toys were of greatest concern from a human health perspective. While the latter observations are consistent with the use of antimony compounds as catalysts in the production of polyethylene terephthalate, co-association of Sb and Br in many products not requiring flame retardancy suggests that electronic casings are widely recycled. Further research is required into the mobility of Sb when dissipated in new, recycled and aged polymeric materials.

“…A number of researchers have proved that PETE is not an exception, with regard to the chemical migration phenomenon known in plastics. Several scientists (Greifenstein et al, 2013;Sánchez-Martínez et al, 2013;Welle and Franz, 2011) confirmed contamination of PETE-packaged foodstuffs and soft drinks with leaching Sb. Hoppe et al (2017) confirmed the leachability of oligomers from PETE that, according to their findings, have originated from the polymeric material.…”

In this research, the level of the heavy metal antimony (Sb) was assessed in seven PETE-bottled water brands, representing major producing firms in Jeddah city. On the same day samples brought from local superstores, each sample underwent 4-replicate analysis (as time-zero Sb level). Soon after analysis, bottles of each brand were tightly closed, divided into three subsets, stored for 2 months (23°C, 5°C, 50°C, respectively), then re-analyzed. ICP-OES was used for analysis. Sb ranged from 0.100 (time-zero) to 1.664-µg l-1. Compared with time-zero level, significant (p ? 0.05) effects of temperature on Sb level were observed. Reactivity to elevated temperature indicated a significant variation between some brands at 50° C. Although the outcomes of this study indicate that Sb levels increase with elevated temperature, such levels are well below the international MCLs, and are unlikely to exceed them under the standard storage conditions.
