Abstract
ABSTRACTA survey of BPA, BPB, BPF, BADGE and BFDGE contamination in canned beers from the Italian market is reported. An analytical method for the determination of these five bisphenols down to 0.5 ng mL−1 using UPLC with fluorescence detection was developed and validated. A total of 40 canned beers were collected from the market in Southern Italy and analysed. The results showed that only 14 samples were contaminated at concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 2.5 ng mL−1 by at least BPA, BPF and BADGE. No contamination by BPB and BFDGE was detected. This survey suggests that canned beers from the Italian market should represent neither a relevant source of intake of bisphenols nor a risk for consumer’s health.
