Analysis of Toxicologically Critical SRM Compounds in Infant Formulae and Milk – Residue Findings
Samples of milk and infant formula for children up to 16 weeks of age from all over Europe were analysed regarding compounds of high toxicity (low ADI-values), for which the default MRL for infant formulae of 0.01 mg/kg is not considered safe.
In total 80 samples of infant formula out of 6 different categories and 54 samples of milk, including heat-treated and raw cow’s milk have been analysed.
The following compounds with high toxicity were included in the study:
Analyzed by QuEChERS and LC-MS/MS:
- Abamectin, Emamectin, Diclofop, Haloxyfop, Gamma-Cyhalothrin, 3-Hydroxycarbofuran and Fentin.
Analyzed by QuPPe and LC-MS/MS:
- Amitrole, Nicotine, PTU, Diquat and Topramezone.
Additionally analysed were the following compounds:
- Ethoxyquin-Dimer, Trifluoracetic acid, Chlorate, Perchlorate, Phosphonic acid, Triazole-acetic acid, Triazole-lactic acid, Triazole-alanine, Paraquat, Melamine and Cyanuric acid.
