dc.description.abstract Plastics have become prevalent in food packaging, although the transfer of additives with potential for migration into food is a significant public health concern. The article reviews various packaging materials, explores the factors influencing the migration of chemicals from packaging into food, reviews the literature on the presence of migrants in food, and identifies potential health risks. The regulatory aspects of the use of food packaging made of polymeric materials in the European Union and the Republic of Moldova are reviewed, as well as the mechanisms governing the migration of additives from packaging into food. The process of migration of additives from plastic containers during microwave heating of food, the use of recycled plastic containers, and their combined effect present topics for extensive biomonitoring, necessary to minimize migration from a food safety perspective. en_US
dc.description.abstract Materialele plastice au devenit predominante în ambalajele alimentare, deși transferul aditivilor cu potențial de migrare în alimente reprezintă o preocupare semnificativă pentru sănătatea publică. Articolul examinează diverse materiale de ambalare, explorează factorii care influențează migrarea substanțelor chimice din ambalaje în alimente, analizează datele bibliografice privind prezența migranților în alimente și identifică riscurile potențiale pentru sănătate. Sunt analizate aspectele de reglementare ale utilizării ambalajelor alimentare fabricate din materiale polimerice în Uniunea Europeană și Republica Moldova, precum și mecanismele care guvernează migrarea aditivilor din ambalaje în alimente. Procesul de migrare a aditivilor din recipientele de plastic în timpul încălzirii alimentelor la microunde, utilizarea recipientelor din plastic reciclat și efectul lor combinat prezintă subiecte pentru o biomonitorizare extinsă, necesară pentru a minimiza migrarea din perspectiva siguranței alimentare. en_US
