Materials and articles in contact with foodstuffs - Plastics substances subject to limitation - Part 7: Determination of monoethylene glycol and diethylene glycol in food simulants

This part of this European Standard specifies methods for the determination of monoethylene glycol and diethylene glycol in the food simulants; water, 3 % w/v acetic acid, 15 % v/v ethanol and olive oil and other fatty food simulants, simulants D, e.g. a mixture of synthetic triglycerides or sunflower oil or corn oil.  The methods are capable of determining monoethylene glycol and diethylene glycol in food simulants separately, or combined, at the specific migration limit SML (T) of 30 mg/kg.
NOTE   This method was developed for the determination of monoethylene glycol and diethylene glycol in 15 % v/v aqueous ethanol, as required by the regulations in force at the time the development work was carried out.  However, this method, developed for 15 (v/v) aqueous ethanol, should be applicable to the determination in 10 (v/v) aqueous ethanol.

Matériaux et objets en contact avec les denrées alimentaires - Substances dans les matieres plastiques soumises a des limitations - Partie 7 : Détermination du monoéthylene glycol et du diéthylene glycol dans les simulants d'aliments

La présente partie de cette Norme européenne spécifie les méthodes de détermination du monoéthylene glycol et du diéthylene glycol dans les simulants d'aliments : eau, acide acétique a 3 % (m/v), éthanol a 15 % (v/v) et huile d'olive et autres simulants alimentaires gras, simulants D (mélange de triglycérides synthétiques, huile de tournesol ou huile de mais par exemple). Ces méthodes permettent de déterminer séparément ou en association, le monoéthylene glycol et le diéthylene glycol dans les simulants alimentaires, a la limite de migration spécifique LMS (T) de 30 mg/kg.
NOTE   Cette méthode a été élaborée pour déterminer la quantité de monoéthylene glycol et de diéthylene glycol dans de l'éthanol aqueux a 15 % (v/v), comme exigé par les réglementations en vigueur au moment ou le travail de mise au point a été effectué. Cependant, cette méthode, élaborée pour de l'éthanol aqueux a 15 % (v/v), devrait pouvoir s'appliquer a la détermination dans de l'éthanol aqueux a 10 % (v/v).

EN 13130-7:2004 (E) 3 Foreword This document (EN 13130-7:2004) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 194 “Utensils in contact with food”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI. This document was prepared by Subcommittee SC1 of TC 194 as one of a series of analytical test methods for plastics materials and articles in contact with foodstuffs. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by November 2004, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by November 2004. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association. This standard is intended to support Directives 2002/72/EC [1], 89/109/EEC [2], 82/711/EEC [3] and its amendments 93/8/EEC [4] and 97/48/EC [5], and 85/572/EEC [6]. At the time of preparation and publication of this part of EN 13130 the European Union legislation relating to plastics materials and articles intended to come into contact with foodstuffs is incomplete. Further Directives and amendments to existing Directives are expected which could change the legislative requirements which this standard supports. It is therefore strongly recommended that users of this standard refer to the latest relevant published Directive(s) before commencement of a test or tests described in this standard. EN 13130-7 should be read in conjunction with EN 13130-1. Further parts of EN 13130, under the general title Materials and articles in contact with foodstuffs - Plastics substances subject to limitation, have been prepared, and others are in preparation, concerned with the determination of specific migration from plastics materials into foodstuffs and food simulants and the determination of specific monomers and additives in plastics.

According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom. SIST EN 13130-7:2004



EN 13130-7:2004 (E) 5 Introduction Monoethylene glycol (MEG) and diethylene glycol (DEG) are monomers used in the manufacture of plastics materials and articles intended to come into contact with foodstuffs.
Residues of monoethylene glycol and diethylene glycol can remain in the plastic after processing to form materials and articles for food contact use, and can migrate into foodstuffs.
NOTE Commission Directive 2002/72/EC lists a combined specific migration limit of 30 mg/kg (T) of monoethylene glycol and diethylene glycol in foods or food simulants.

1 Scope This part of this European Standard specifies methods for the determination of monoethylene glycol and diethylene glycol in the food simulants; water, 3 % (w/v) acetic acid, 15 % (v/v) ethanol and olive oil and other fatty food simulants, simulants D, e.g. a mixture of synthetic triglycerides or sunflower oil or corn oil.
The methods are capable of determining monoethylene glycol and diethylene glycol in food simulants separately, or combined, at the specific migration limit SML (T) of 30 mg/kg.
NOTE This method was developed for the determination of monoethylene glycol and diethylene glycol in 15 % (v/v) aqueous ethanol, as required by the regulations in force at the time the development work was carried out.
However, this method, developed for 15 (v/v) aqueous ethanol, should be applicable to the determination in 10 (v/v) aqueous ethanol. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications.
These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text, and the publications are listed hereafter.
For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision.
For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies (including amendments).

ISO 4788, Laboratory glassware – Graduated measuring cylinders. 3 Principle After addition of an internal standard the aqueous food simulants or the olive oil water extract is directly injected for gas chromatographic analysis using a cold on-column injector.
Detection limits are approximately 1 mg/kg in the food simulants.
The concentrations of monoethylene glycol and diethylene glycol are measured by comparison of peak height or area ratios against standards. 4 Reagents WARNING:
