One route of exposure to SPAs is through bottled water since the polymers used to make plastic bottles contain these SPAs, which migrate from the plastic to the water. Solid-phase extraction (SPE), HPLC-MS, FTIR, and DSC are used to identify and quantify...

Bottled mineral water is distributed globally through complex supply chains, making it available far beyond its bottling plants. In low-viscosity food matrices, invisible changes may occur due to shaking. The primary purpose of this research was to inves...
