Reviewed publications address issues related to:
- Effectiveness of barrier materials for preventing migration of contaminants into food or food simulants
- Development of methods to identify and quantify chemicals in food contact materials or food/food simulants
- Identifying and quantifying specific chemicals/chemical classes in FCM or food/food simulants
