| Popis: | Convenience foods are commonly packaged with plastic materials. Many of the phthalate plasticizers (PAEs) in the packages may migrate into the foods and cause health hazards. In the present study, the contents of some PAEs were analyzed in 283 convenience foods and the plastic packaging materials. Health hazards were assessed for infants, children and young people. The contents of diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP), found in the samples rich in fat, ranged from below the limit of detection to 5.23 mg/kg. The content of dibutylphthalate (DBP) ranged from 0.511 mg/kg in meat to 2.54 mg/kg in cake. The content of PAEs in convenience foods near their expiration date was much higher than that of just manufactured packages. Children are more prone to be adversely affected by the PAEs than the adults. In addition, females are more sensitive to the PAEs than males. |
