Abstract
This study was Performed to survey and evaluate the contents of Plasticizers such as DEP(diethyl phthalate), DPrP(di-n-Phthalate), DBP(di-n-butyl Phthalate), DPP(di-n-pentyl Phthalate), DCHP(dicyclohexyl phthalate), BBP (butylbenzyl phthalate), DEHP(di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate) and DEHA(di-(2-ethylheryl) adipate), which are suspected as endocrine disruptors, in food and drug PVC packaging. Tested samples were 5 food wraps, 35 food containers, 40 food and drug packages(type of tablet and capsule) in Gyeonggi-Do area. The contents of DEHA in wrap were 188.9g/kg, 203.1g/kg, 238.4g/kg, 290.9g/kg and 308.3g/kg, respectively, while the other plasticizers were not detected. DEHP was used in 4 samples of food containers and DEHP contents were 4.7g/kg, 30.7g/kg, 35.8g/kg and 53.4g/kg, respectively. In food and drug packaging materials(type of tablet and capsule), the plasticizers were not detected.
