Résumé : |
Polymeric packaging protects food during storage and transportation and withstands light, mechanical also thermal stresses. Chemical compounds that are incorporated within polymeric packaging materials to improve functionality, may interact with food components during processing or storage and migrate into the food. Once these compounds reach a specified limit, food quality and safety may be jeopardised. Possible chemical migrants include printing inks, coatings, plasticisers, antioxidants, thermal stabilisers, slip compounds and monomers.
Chemical migration from food packaging is affected by a number of parameters including the nature and complexity of food, the contact time and temperature of the system, the type of packaging contact layer and the properties of the migrants. Migration, under specific conditions, can be described as mass transfer of chemicals from food packaging to food during storage and usage. Substances migrating to food give a bad odour to food and, thus, reduce consumer choice. Also because migrating substances create remains on food, they adversely affect food safety and quality. It is a mandatory requirement for consumers to determine the impact of packaging in contact with food on food safety. The Global regulations of Printing Inks on Food Contact Materials are not fully harmonised. They vary region to region or country to country. For consumers safety, the dynamic regulatory landscape and increasing number of regulations, present a challenge for companies developing and manufacturing food packaging or other food contact materials and articles.
This review provides a comprehensive overview of the migration of chemical compounds into food and the challenges of polymeric packaging, as well as a discussion of regulatory issues. |
