Abstract

Epoxy resins based on bisphenol A (BPA) have been used as components of food and beverage can coatings for more than 50 years. The recent interest in analysis of extractable BPA from these resins has made it necessary to develop validated methods with performance characteristics necessary for successful analyses in regulatory food simulants. The present study was conducted to develop analytical methodology so that suitably equipped laboratories could confidently perform these analyses. Two methods were developed and validated through round-robin sampling. A historical treatment of the method development challenges, round-robin studies, and results are described here.
