Chem Service: Bisphenols
Bisphenols are chemical compounds that are used in plastics to make a clear and tough product. They are also found in epoxy resins used to line metal food cans.
Bisphenol A (known as “BPA” and the most popular of the bisphenols) and Bisphenol S have been shown to be endocrine disruptors. For this reavson, many consumers will look for BPA free plastics. In 2013 the US Food & Drug Administration banned the use of BPA in baby bottles and infant formula packaging.
Chem Service provides confidence in the analytical measurement of bisphenols through their range of certified reference materials (CRMs). These CRMs are essential tools for laboratories and researchers working on the detection and quantification of bisphenols.
By utilizing Chem Service CRMs, laboratories can validate their analytical methods, calibrate their instruments, and ensure accurate detection and quantification of bisphenols. These CRMs serve as reliable benchmarks, enabling laboratories to assess the performance and accuracy of their analytical techniques.
These CRMs contribute to accurate and reliable data, supporting regulatory compliance, product safety assessments, and scientific research focused on understanding the environmental impact and potential health risks associated with bisphenols.
