Summary
The effects of compression, stacking, vacuum packing and temperature on the migration of bisphenol A from polyvinyl chloride plastic sheeting into European Union food simulants (water, 3% acetic acid and olive oil), 1.5% agar, and mixtures of olive oil with various proportions of inert material (fine washed sea sand) were evaluated using previously developed methods for identification and quantitation of migrants. Compression, stacking and increasing temperature all increased migration.
