Foreword
This document (prEN 13130-13:2006) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 194
“Utensils in contact with food”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.This document was prepared by
Subcommittee SC 1 of TC 194 as one of a series of analytical test methods for plastics materials and
articles in contact with foodstuffs.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede CEN/TS 13130-13:2005.
At the time of preparation and publication of this standard the European Union legislation relating to
plastics materials and articles intended to come into contact with foodstuffs is incomplete. Further
Regulations, Directives and amendments to existing Directives are expected which could change the
legislative requirements which this standard supports. It is therefore strongly recommended that users
of this standard refer to the latest relevant published Directive(s) before commencement of a test or
tests described in this standard.
EN 13130-13 should be read in conjunction with EN 13130-1.
Further Parts of EN 13130, under the general title Materials and articles in contact with foodstuffs –
Plastics substances subject to limitation, have been prepared, and others are in preparation,
concerned with the determination of specific migration from plastics materials into foodstuffs and food
simulants and with the determination of specific monomers and additives in plastics. The other Parts
of EN 13130 are as follows.

Part 1: Guide to the test methods for the specific migration of substances from plastics into
food and food simulants and the determination of substances in plastics and the selection of
conditions of exposure to food simulants
Part 2: Determination of terephthalic acid in food simulants

Introduction

2,2-Bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)propane, herein referred to as Bisphenol A, C H O , PM/Ref. 13480, is a
15 16 2
monomer used in the manufacture of certain plastics materials and articles intended to come into
contact with foodstuffs. After manufacture residual Bisphenol A can remain in the finished product and
may migrate into foodstuffs coming into contact with that product.
1 Scope
This document, part of EN 13130, specifies a method for the determination of Bisphenol A in the food
simulants distilled water, 3 % w/v acetic acid aqueous, 10 % v/v ethanol aqueous solution and
rectified olive oil. The level of Bisphenol A monomer determined is expressed as milligrams
Bisphenol A per kilogram of food simulant. The method is applicable to the quantitative determination
of Bisphenol A at a minimum level of 0,002 mg/kg in aqueous food simulants and 0,009 mg/kg in olive
oil.
NOTE The method should also be applicable to other aqueous food simulants as well as to the other fatty
food simulants, sunflower oil and a mixture of synthetic triglycerides.
2 Normative references
This European Standard incorporates by dated and undated reference, provisions from other
publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the
publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to and revisions of
any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment
or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies, including
amendments.
EN 13130-1:2004, Materials and articles in contact with foodstuffs – Plastics substances subject to
limitation– Part 1: Guide to the test methods for the specific migration of substances from plastics into
food and food simulants and the determination of substances in plastics and the selection of
conditions of exposure to food simulants.
3 Principle
The level of Bisphenol A in aqueous food simulants is determined by high performance liquid
chromatography (HPLC) with fluorescence (FLD) detection. Olive oil test samples are extracted with a
mixture of water/methanol and the resultant solution analysed by HPLC. Calibration is achieved by
analysis of relevant simulants containing known amounts of Bisphenol A.

NOTE All reagents should be of recognised analytical quality unless otherwise stated
