A LC-MS/MS procedure for the analysis of 19 perfluoroalkyl substances in food fulfilling recent EU regulations requests
Talanta(2024)
摘要
Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are synthetic, stable, fluorinated molecules widely used in consumer products. They are non-biodegradable, persistent and bio-accumulating. In 2020 European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) lowered the Tolerable Weekly Intake (TWI) for the four PFASs (PFOA, PFOS, PFNA, PFHxS) and in 2022, the EU issued a Recommendation asking to monitor twenty-one PFASs in food. Since 1st January 2023 limits in food were set. Here we report a sensitive, straightforward and robust procedure enabling the determination of 19 PFAS in food matrices using a liquid chromatography mass spectrometer (LC-MS/MS). Few are the published methods applicable to the different food matrices and covering the molecules listed in Recommendation 2022/1431, fulfilling the LOQs requested. The method was satisfactory validated (UNI CEI EN ISO/IEC 17025:2018 and Regulation (EU) 2022/1428) and used to investigate hen egg samples, highlighting home-produced eggs as the more critical egg farming process for PFAS accumulation.
