Materials and articles in contact with foodstuffs - Plastics substances subject to limitation - Part 19: Determination of dimethylaminoethanol in food simulants
This document, part 19 of EN 13130, specifies an analytical procedure for the determination ofdimethylaminoethanol in food simulants: distilled water, 3 % w/v aqueous acetic acid, 15 % v/v aqueous ethanol and rectified olive oil. The method is appropriate for the quantitative determination ofdimethylaminoethanol in an approximate analyte concentration range of 3,4 mg/kg to 36 mg perkilogram of food simulant.NOTE The method should also be applicable to other aqueous food simulants as well as to other fatty food simulants e.g. sunflower oil and a mixture of synthetic triglycerides.
