Foreword

Plasticizers, also known as plasticizers, are added to plastics processing to make them more flexible and easier to process and can be legally used in industrial applications. Phthalates are classified as suspected environmental hormones and have serious damage to the human body and are more toxic than melamine. However, in recent years, people frequently find plasticizers in various foods. For food, it is prohibited to add phthalates. In June 2011, the Ministry of Health of China listed 17 kinds of phthalate esters in the list of "foods that may be illegally added to non-edible substances and food additives that may be abused (sixth batch)", prohibiting the addition of foods related to foods. In the product.

The biggest problem and difficulty faced by using LC or LC/MS to detect plasticizers are: Several of the 17 illegally added plasticizers prescribed by the Ministry of Health (such as DBP, DIBP, DEHP, DNOP, DINP, etc.) high. In this paper, 17 plasticizers in ginger and star anise oil samples were rapidly analyzed using ACQUITY UPLC I-Class/Xevo TQD, and the effect of background interference on quantification was eliminated with the help of the PFCs kit.
