Analytics

FABES has modern instrumental facilities at its disposal for carrying out analyses and research work.

Ana­ly­ti­cal methods car­ri­ed out at FABES can be found here as examples:

Gravimetric methods

  • Deter­mi­na­ti­on of over­all migration
  • Deter­mi­na­ti­on of extra­c­ta­ble frac­tions (sum of total non-vola­ti­le extra­c­ta­bles – TNE) accor­ding to FDA 21 CFR 177

GC/MS

GC/MS: Gas chromatograph with mass spectrometer from the company Shimadzu
  • “10 ppb-Scree­ning“
  • “HM“-Screening (of high matrix samples)
  • Spe­ci­fic deter­mi­na­ti­on of the migra­ti­on of pho­to­in­itia­tors and acrylates
  • Spe­ci­fic deter­mi­na­ti­on of the migra­ti­on of poly­cy­clic aro­ma­tic hydro­car­bon com­pounds (PAHs)
  • Deter­mi­na­ti­on of the migra­ti­on of MOAH
  • Fur­ther deter­mi­na­ti­ons for medi­um vola­ti­le orga­nic sub­s­tances with mole­cu­lar weights of approx. ≤1000 Dalton

GC/FID

GC/FID: Gas chromatograph with flame ionisation detector from the company Shimadzu
  • “10 ppb-Scree­ning“
  • “HM“-Screening (of high matrix samples)
  • Spe­ci­fic deter­mi­na­ti­on of the migra­ti­on of medi­um-vola­ti­le and low-vola­ti­le acry­la­tes as a sum in the form of acrylic acid
  • Deter­mi­na­ti­on of the migra­ti­on of MOAH
  • Fur­ther deter­mi­na­ti­ons for medi­um vola­ti­le orga­nic sub­s­tances with mole­cu­lar weights of approx. ≤1000 Dalton

P&T‑GC/MS – HS-GC/MS

GC/MS with autosampler for headspace (HS) and purge and trap (P&T) injections from Shimadzu

Sensory know how

Iden­ti­fi­ca­ti­on of unknown pack­a­ging com­pon­ents (off-odours, recy­cling components).

Partners

FABES works clo­se­ly with various part­ners from the labo­ra­to­ry sec­tor to offer you an even wider ran­ge of mea­su­re­ments (e.g. ICP mea­su­re­ments for hea­vy metals or deter­mi­na­ti­on of PFAS‑, Organotin‑, POP- or SVHC-sub­s­tances – GPC ana­ly­ses) from a sin­gle source.
