Description Food safety is a major concern for humans due to incipient contaminants
and toxins in food chain. Bisphenol-A (BPA) is a food packaging contaminant
classified as an endocrine disrupting compound. It leaches/migrates from
various food packaging and handling materials to foods and water. It is
reported to disrupt cell function at 0.23 ng/L and is also linked to reproductive,
metabolic, and thyroid problems. Hence, detection, screening and removal of
BPA in food samples is an important issue. Rapid, sensitive and onsite detection
techniques along with reusable, selective adsorbents are preferred over
conventional analytical and separation techniques.
