Migration plastic metabolism

Canedo et al. (2009b) pointed out that high-pressure treatment (400 MPa, lOmin, 12°C) had a slight effect on the volatile fraction of Spanish dry-cured Serrano ham. Most compounds affected by pressurization such as alkanes ( 9-0,2), 2-undecene, 2-nonanone, l-octen-3-one, 1-heptanol, 2-hexanol, 2-heptanol, ethyl pentanoate, benzaldehyde, and styrene presumably originated from the metabolism of molds. A significant effect of pressurization on migration of compounds from the plastic packaging material was also noted.
