Ultraviolet light printing inks are considered safer than the classical inks; however, despite being on the outer surface of the packaging material, their components can migrate into foodstuffs and can give rise to contamination. Photoinitiators are a part of the formulation of printing inks, being an important class of migrant, for which there have been more than 100 incidents of contamination of packaged food with photoinitiators reported through Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed (RASFF) alerts in the European Union. In this review the process of photo-polymerisation is explained in depth to provide an insight into the complexity of the process, and the diversity of potential contaminants together with their degradation products. The critical factors affecting the migration process itself are reviewed, together with analytical methods and the current legislation in the European Union and other parts of the world.
紫外光印刷油墨被认为比传统油墨更安全;然而,尽管它们位于包装材料的外表面,但其成分仍可能迁移到食品中并导致污染。光引发剂是印刷油墨配方的一部分,是一类重要的迁移物,通过欧盟食品和饲料快速预警系统(RASFF)警报,已有100多起包装食品被光引发剂污染的事件报告。在这篇综述中,深入解释了光聚合过程,以深入了解该过程的复杂性,以及潜在污染物及其降解产物的多样性。同时综述了影响迁移过程本身的关键因素,以及分析方法和欧盟及世界其他地区的现行法规。
