Abstract

Bisphenol A is widely used in the processing of plastic products and as an additive in the production of plastic packaging it can be transferred from the packaging to food and thus become a health hazard. It is therefore important to strengthen the inspection of BPA and to try to construct a more rapid and accurate testing technique with low detection limits in the process of product testing. Currently, the main techniques for the detection of BPA are polarimetric analysis, molecular imprinting, electrochemical analysis, fluorescence spectrometry, enzyme-linked immunosorbent technique, chromatography and chromatography-mass spectrometry. This paper summaries the above techniques and the current status of research on BPA detection and describes the expectations for the future development of detection techniques.
