Food and beverages can be very aggressive chemical milieu and may
interact strongly with materials that they touch. Whenever food is
placed in contact with another substance, there is a risk that
chemicals from the contact material may migrate into the food.
These chemicals may be harmful if ingested in large quantities, or
impart a taint or odour to the food, negatively affecting food
quality. Food packaging is the most obvious example of a food
contact material. As the demand for pre-packaged foods increases,
so might the potential risk to consumers from the release of
chemicals into the food product. Chemical migration and food
contact materials reviews the latest controls and research in this
field and how they can be used to ensure that food is safe to eat.
Part one discusses the regulation and quality control of chemical
migration into food. Part two reviews the latest developments in
areas such as exposure estimation and analysis of food contact
materials. The final part contains specific chapters on major food
contact materials and packaging types, such as recycled plastics,
metals, paper and board, multi-layer packaging and intelligent
packaging.
With its distinguished editors and international team of authors,
Chemical migration and food contact materials is an essential
reference for scientists and professionals in food packaging
manufacture and food processing, as well as all those concerned
with assessing the safety of food.
