Case Study 2 Toxic Material in Medication Container Lining 

In one study, a novel coating system was developed to improve on commercially available systems that included solvents, curing agents, plasticizers, and monomers. The replacement coating system was developed with highly refined monomers derived from food packaging coatings, and then

This case study has been included to illustrate an example of how an independent analysis may become a problem if there is no prior dialog and agreement on the extraction and analysis approach. Many times, commercial laboratories feel obliged to stress food and drug contact materials to reveal possible weakness or limited margins. It is imperative that any analysis not be conducted using conditions that cause the material under investigation to decompose and become non-representative.
