scope:
This document describes procedures for the testing of migration of fluorescent whitening agents from paper and board intended to come into contact with foodstuffs. The method is based on liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection for quantification. The document is applicable to four different types of fluorescent whitening agents, diaminostilbene hexasulfonate, diaminostilbene tetrasulfonate, diaminostilbene disulfonate and distyrylbiphenyl.
