"Infants, whose growth and development are highly dependent upon the endocrine system, are particularly vulnerable to endocrine disrupter exposure. In our study, we examined whether or not alkylphenols, bisphenol A, benzophenone, di(2-ethylhexyl)adipate and 10 phthalates are present in containers of baby food. Furthermore, the migration into food-simulating solvents was also examined. Sixteen types of containers of baby food, obtained on the Japanese market in 2001, were examined: 8 glass bottle types, 1 plastic type, 1 metallic package (laminated with plastic) and 6 multilayered laminated film packages. Alkylphenols, benzophenone, bisphenol A and di(2-ethylhexyl)adipate were not detected in any of the samples. On the other hand, dibutylphthalate (DBF) was detected in 7 samples (1.2-9.1 micro g/sample), and di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) was detected in 15 samples (1.3?18micro g/sample). Migration tests were carried out for 5 samples, and the levels of DBF and DEHP that migrated into w-heptane were 0.68-1.7micro g/sample and 0.33-3.5 micro g/sample, respectively. From these results, a baby's intake levels of DBF and DEHP were estimated to be about 1/2,500 and 1/90-300 of the tolerable daily intake (TDI), respectively."
