Determination of Five Bisphenols in Commercial Milk Samples by Liquid Chromatography Coupled to Fluorescence Detection
The presence of five bisphenols, i.e., bisphenol F, bisphenol A, bisphenol B, bisphenol F diglycidyl ether, and bisphenol A
diglycidyl ether, was monitored in commercial milk packed in plastic bottles marketed in Italy. The new validated method
includes a solid-phase extraction procedure followed by liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. All positive results
were confirmed by liquid chromatography???tandem mass spectrometry analysis. The limits of detection and quantification and the
recovery percentages indicated that the method is suitable for detecting bisphenols in milk at concentrations far below the legal
limits. Of 68 commercial milk samples analyzed, no bisphenol was found in 27 samples (39.7%), and 41 samples (60.3%)
contained one or more bisphenols. The bisphenol most frequently found was bisphenol F (36 samples, 52.9%) followed by
bisphenol A (20 samples, 29.4%) and bisphenol B (6 samples, 8.8%). Taking into consideration the limits of detection, no sample
contained either bisphenol F diglycidyl ether or bisphenol A diglycidyl ether
