“…The aim was monitoring and characterizing the migration behaviour of mineral oils and other chemicals of concern, from fibre-based materials into simulants or real foodstuffs. Specifically, some studies (Poç as, Oliveira, Brandsch, & Hogg, 2011;Zü lch & Piringer, 2010) discussed the applicable methodologies for migration modelling. However, in this topic an important gap of scientific knowledge remains for both, the Legislator and the producers.…”

“…However, our calculations cannot substitute any migration tests for the testing for compliance with the SML restrictions using the conventional European Union test simulants of foodstuffs. For the migration from paper and board into dry food, simulant E (modified polyphenylene oxide) has to be proved as the most suitable food simulant (Aurela et al 2001;Summerfield & Cooper 2001;Triantafyllou et al 2007;Zülch & Piringer 2010).…”

“…Recycled paper is used in the production of a wide variety of different paper products, from toilet and copy paper, newspapers, and cardboard boxes to corrugated cardboard used as food contact material (Vinggaard et al 2000;Gehring et al 2004;Ozaki et al 2004;Lopez-Espinosa et al 2007;Suciu et al 2013). Clearly, the use of recycled paper and cardboard products used as food packaging materials pose a potential risk, as BPA migrates from the packaging to the packed good (Aurela et al 2001;Castle 2004;Zülch & Piringer 2010;Suciu et al 2013). In particular the probability of an increased migration rate is higher for fat-containing and moist food products.…”

Bisphenol A (BPA; 4,4'-(propane-2,2-diyl)diphenol), a suspected endocrine disruptor with weak estrogenic activity, is used in a variety of consumer products, including paper and cardboard products used as food contact materials. The present study compared four different gas chromatographic methods for the analysis of BPA in paper and cardboard food packages. Eighteen different food packages were extracted and BPA was determined using two different derivatisation reactions--trimethylsilylation with N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl) trifluoroacetamide (BSTFA) and halide alkylation with pentafluorobenzoyl chloride (PFBOCl)--and four different separation and detection techniques. The BSTFA derivatives were quantified with (1) GC-MS in single-ion monitoring (SIM) mode with electron ionisation (EI-GC-MS) and (2) GC-MS/MS in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode using electron ionisation (EI-GC-MS/MS); while the PFBOCl derivatives were quantified with (3) GC-MS using electron ionisation (EI-GC-MS) as well as (4) GC-MS with negative chemical ionisation (NCI-GC-MS). All developed methods showed good linearity (R(2) > 0.9938), precision (CV < 4.5% for reproducibility; CV < 2.2% for repeatability) and sensitivity, with limits of detection (LODs) between 0.02 µg kg(-1) for the pentafluorobenzoyl derivatives measured with the NCI-GC-MS method and 6 µg kg(-1) for the pentafluorobenzoyl derivatives determined with EI-GC-MS. Levels of BPA in the samples were in agreement for all methods, ranging from values below the limit of quantitation (LOQ) to 11.9 mg kg(-1) paper. In a last step, the maximum potential migration into food products was calculated for all tested paper and cardboard samples, assuming a 'worst case' scenario of 100% migration.

“…humidified by the contact with fresh foods) and in presence of medium or high porosity, a strong increase in the molecules desorption rate occurs. In this case it is possible to use the modeling procedure described for plastic materials also for modeling the mass transfer through paper and board into foodstuff (Zulchh and Piringer 2010).…”

“…The possibility of modulating the release kinetics of active compounds such as lysozyme, nisin, and sodium benzoate from biopolymer has been evaluated already (Buonocore et al 2003;Guillard et al 2009), but the mechanism of migration from fiber-based materials and from plastics is different. Paper materials are heterogeneous, open and porous structures consisting of cellulosic fibers, air and pores, and the characteristics of the cellulosic fibers are key parameters to take into account in the application of modeling (Pocas et al 2011;Zulchh and Piringer 2010). Currently, the literature line is to treat, when it is possible, the migration process from paper and board as done with plastic materials (Franz 2002;Crank 1975;Piringer and Baner 2000;Castle 2004).…”

The potential use of cellulose based materials for active food packaging applications was explored. For this purpose, the sorption of lysozyme in a cellulose based paper pulp was optimized using the experimental design methodology. A Face-Centered Composite design was applied to investigate the effect of short/long fibers ratio and carboxymethyl cellulose concentration on linking lysozyme to the fibers surface and to optimize the cellulosic matrix composition. The related polynomial model showed good fitting ability (R 2 [ 0.9) as well as good prediction ability (Q 2 [ 0.8). The best combination of factors was 50 % short fibers, 50 % long fibers and at least 4 % carboxymethyl cellulose. Afterwards the lysozyme release was investigated using a mathematical model based on Fick's second law. It was able to describe the release kinetics of lysozyme from the paper sheets made with the optimized cellulosic matrix into water at different temperatures (between 4 and 23°C), pH (from 4 to 7) and NaCl concentrations (from 0.2 to 2 M). The apparent diffusion coefficients for the lysozyme were in the range of 3.1 9 10 -16 -6.6 9 10 -14 and the E a value was 22.1 kJ/mol at pH 5 and NaCl concentration of 0.5 M.
