According to EU directive 2002/72, materials that come into contact with food<br />

products should be tested for possible leachables. Supercritical fl uid chromatography<br />

(SFC) is a complimentary separation technique to HPLC for the analysis and<br />

potential detection of polymer additives that might be released out of packaging<br />

material. This <strong>Application</strong> Note demonstrates the applicability of SFC for typical<br />

polymer additives using the <strong>Agilent</strong> 1260 Infi nity Analytical SFC System in<br />

combination with an <strong>Agilent</strong> 6130 Single Quadrupole LC/MS System.<br />
