My brains a bit whacked, this may have been asked before. How often should migration testing be carried out on a food contact material? Are there any legal requirements (any country)? What would seem a normal length of time that test results can still be considered credible (scientifically)?
For anyone not familiar with migration testing - it is carried out to demonstrate a materials suitability to be in contact with food; the testing itself is usually carried out using various stimulants such as olive oil and acetic acid, with I imagine time and temperature and to see what if anything migates from the material into the stimulant.
Thanks,
Simon
