FPF Dossier: Bisphenol S
No full textBisphenol S (BPS) is used as a substitute for bisphenol A (BPA) in food contact materials. The dossier provides information on applications, toxicity, exposure and regulation of BPS and discusses its role as possible substitute for BPA
FPF Dossier: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs)
No full textThe dossier covers the chemistry, application, regulation, exposure, and health effects of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances. PFASs are widely used as surfactants, polymers, coatings, and additives in food contact materials (FCMs) as well as in many other applications. They are applied in FCMs to improve e.g. the stain and grease repellence of FCM paper and board and the non-stick properties of cookware. Due to their persistency and toxic properties, legal measures have been taken to restrict and/or ban the use of some long-chain PFASs within the last years. However, a wide range of fluorinated alternatives is currently under development or already on the market
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

FPF Dossier: Bioplastics
No full textBiobased polymers and biodegradable plastics are both referred to as bioplastics. In contrast to non-degradable petrol-based plastics, materials such as starch-based polymers and polylactides are biobased and compostable under controlled conditions. Types, applications, toxicity and regulation of biobased polymers and biodegradable plastic used in food contact materials are summarized in the dossier
