Migrants determination and bioaccessibility study of ethyl lauroyl arginate (LAE) from a LAE based antimicrobial food packaging material

► Analysis of non-intentionally added substances is necessary in food contact materials. ► QTOF-MS detection is a powerful tool for identifying the nonvolatile migrants. ► Migration and bioaccesibility studies of a LAE based active material are performed. ► LAE and other migrants were found in food simulants and chicken breast. ► Bioaccessibility studies showed that LAE was not available for intestinal absorption.
