Study of the migration of selected metals from beverages packaging
 Šťávová, Elena ; Vespalcová, Milena (referee) ; Diviš, Pavel (advisor)
This master’s thesis follows on bachelor’s thesis and deals with study of migration of aluminium and tin from metal containers. Manufactory of metal containers, corrosion of cans, chemical behaviour of aluminium and tin in food, its effects on health and possibilities of the determination in food and characterization of inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) are described in theoretical part. In experimental part 30 different beverages in cans and glass and 6 tomato purees purchased at common stores were analysed. Measured concentrations of aluminium in beverages from cans and from glass containers were compared. It was found that beverages from cans didn’t contain higher concentrations of aluminium than beverages from glass containers. This could be caused by the fact that the aluminium is very stable metal, it has high corrosive endurance and therefore is very suitable for food packaging. Measured concentrations of tin in tomato purees were compared with the maximum permissible level of tin in canned food determined by European legislation. None of them exceed the 200 mg/kg level. All of the measured concentrations were very low, because all of the cans contained protective layer of lacquer, which gives protection against corrosion and also effectively protects from releasing of tin into the can content.
