TEM and SP-ICP-MS Analysis of the Release of Silver Nanoparticles from Decoration of Pastry

Abstract: Metallic silver is an EU approved food additive referred to as E174. It is generally assumed that silver is only present in bulk form in the food chain. This work demonstrates that a simple treatment with water of "silver pearls", meant for decoration of pastry, results in the release of a subfraction of silver nanoparticles. The number-based size and shape distributions of the single, aggregated, and/or agglomerated particles released from the silver pearls were determined by combining conventional bright-fie… Show more

“…Recent studies have focused on the release of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs), specifically silver nanoparticles and titanium, from consumer products such as textiles, food packaging, sunscreens, and washing machine effluents [92,115,123,[125][126][127][128][129][130][131]. The prevalent use of titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) in sunscreens ensures a high potential for release into the environment.…”

“…SP-ICP-MS in combination with alkaline or enzymatic digestions has proven to provide reliable information about size distributions and number concentrations in laboratory studies involving food matrices spiked with silver or gold nanoparticles [32, 38, 40, 41], in tissues from organisms exposed to nanoparticles [33,37,42,124], and native nanoparticles in foods and consumer products [95]. SP-ICP-MS has also been applied to study the fate of silver nanoparticles in in vitro human digestion [104], lake mesocosms [50] and washing solutions from commercial detergents [90], to track their dissolution [127] and agglomeration [128] in natural waters or their release from food additives [129]. [142,143] and ZnO and CuO [144], and for speciation of silver in waters and soils from microcosm [145] and mesocosms [146] experiments.…”
