General description

This substance is listed on the positive list of the EU regulation 10/2011 for plastics intended to come into contact with food. Find all available reference materials for compounds listed in 10/2011 here

Application

Acrylamide may be used as an analytical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in:
  • Environmental water samples using ion-exclusion chromatography-mass spectrometry system (IEC-MS).
  • Cereal-based food products by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC–MS) and reversed phase-high performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection (RP-HPLC-DAD).
  • Potato-based foods by liquid chromatography with diode array detection (LC–DAD).
