SUPPL., p. 46-50, 2011.1120-1770http://hdl.handle.net/11449/227213A gas chromatographic method to determine caprolactam migration from non-irradiated and irradiated multilayer polyamide 6 films into water food simulant was developed and validated. Linear range was 0.96 to 642.82 μg/mL, with correlation coefficient of 0.9999. Limit of detection and quantification was 0.32 and 0.96 μg/mL, respectively. Method precision showed RSD values lower than 2.1%, while method accuracy showed recovery from 89 to 105%. Caprolactam levels reduced with the increase of radiation dose for films used for meat foodstuffs, while for films used as cheese packaging only slight differences occurred.46-50engCaprolactamGamma irradiationMigrationMultilayer polyamide 6 filmsValidation of analytical methodArtigo2-s2.0-84885170957
