Abstract
An application of automated on‐line HPLC‐HRGC is described for direct analysis of edible oils for migrated polymer additives. The sample preparation, separating the additive from the oil triglycerides, is carried out using normal phase HPLC. The fraction of the eluent containing the additive is automatically transferred to a HRGC where a second and final separation of the additive from minor oil components takes place. The method compares well with off‐line separation methods. Migration data for Tinuvin 1577 from PET and PC polymers as well as an unspecified experimental polymer is given. The advantages and disadvantages of using different edible oils as food simulants are discussed.
