Abstract

Background: Bisphenol A (BPA) is one of the chemical compounds used in food packaging, so it can migrate from the packaging into food. Also, environmental pollution of this compound is high due to its high use. Therefore, it may enter food chains through the environment. Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) is one of the common mycotoxins in milk. Its presence has been reported worldwide. Infant formula is an alternative to human milk. The main ingredient of this product is cow's milk.

Aims: This study aimed to investigate the levels and risk assessment of BPA and aflatoxin M1 in infant formula.

Methods: Samples were purchased from 7 leading brands of infant formula in pharmacies. The samples were extracted according to common protocols and then injected into HPLC and analyzed with a fluorescence detector for both contaminants.

Results: BPA wasn't detected in infant formula samples, but the presence of AFM1was confirmed in 11% of the samples. Of course, there is no risk in this regard with the risk assessment.

Conclusion: Infant formula samples are not of concern for infants in terms of BPA and aflatoxin M1. However, continuous monitoring is recommended for this product.

婴儿配方奶粉中双酚A和黄曲霉毒素M1的健康风险评估与测定。

背景：双酚A （BPA）是食品包装中使用的化合物之一，因此它可以从包装迁移到食品中。此外，由于该化合物的高使用量，对环境的污染也很大。因此，它可能通过环境进入食物链。黄曲霉毒素M1 （AFM1）是牛奶中常见的真菌毒素之一。它的存在在世界各地都有报道。婴儿配方奶粉是人奶的替代品。这种产品的主要成分是牛奶。目的：探讨婴儿配方奶粉中BPA和黄曲霉毒素M1的含量及风险评估。方法：从药店采购7个主要品牌的婴幼儿配方奶粉样品。样品按照常规方案提取，然后注射到高效液相色谱中，用荧光检测器对两种污染物进行分析。结果：婴儿配方奶粉样品中未检出BPA，但11%的样品中检出afm1。当然，风险评估在这方面没有风险。结论：婴幼儿配方奶粉样品中BPA和黄曲霉毒素M1含量不值得婴幼儿关注。但是，建议对该产品进行连续监测。
