Over 3,600 potentially toxic chemicals found in food packaging may end up in food, according to a new study.
The researchers previously catalogued around 14,000 food-contact chemicals (FCCs), all of which are capable of migrating into food from packaging made from a wide variety of materials, including plastic, paper, glass and metal.
In their new study, the researchers looked for these chemicals in existing biomonitoring databases around the world, which catalogue chemicals found in human samples.
The researchers expected to find hundreds of chemicals in the databases, but instead they found 3,601, a full quarter of all known FCCs.
Around 100 of these chemicals are already known to be of “high concern” because of studies establishing their toxicity—chemicals such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), bisphenol A and phthalates—but the rest have little to no data establishing their risks to human health. […]
