A simulation study on the temperature-dependent release of endocrine-disrupting chemicals from polypropylene and polystyrene containers

Abstract Due to the ubiquity of plastic packaging, this study evaluated the release of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) into liquid foods at various temperatures. Solid-phase extraction (SPE) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) methods were used to identify EDCs, including phthalat...
