1 lut 2021 · This paper presents a case study of the synthetic antioxidant butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), which IARC classified as Group 2B (“possibly carcinogenic to humans”) on the basis of forestomach...
19 gru 2013 · BHA or butylated hydroxyanisole [pdf] is a synthetic antioxidant that is used to prevent fats in foods from going rancid and as a defoaming agent for yeast. First synthesized in the late 1940s,...
3 maj 2023 · Under different conditions, BHA can produce different metabolites, with tert-butyl hydroquinone (TBHQ) being one of the major products. Several studies have shown that BHA could cause thyroid system damage, metabolic and growth disorders, neurotoxicity, and carcinogenesis.
1 maj 2023 · Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) is mainly used as a food additive due to its antioxidant properties, which prevent or delay oxidation reactions and extend the storage life of products. The widespread use of BHA has led to its extensive presence in various environmental matrices and human tissues.
1 kwi 2021 · Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) is a synthetic mixture of the isomers 3-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole (3-BHA) and 2-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole (2-BHA) (Fig. 1). The purity of BHA is specified to be not less than 85% 3-BHA isomer in the mixture according to EU legislation and JECFA ( EFSA, 2011 ).
12 paź 2011 · The Panel on Food Additives and Nutrient Sources added to Food (ANS) delivers a scientific opinion re-evaluating the safety of butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) (E 320).
21 gru 2021 · BHA is considered by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to be generally recognized as safe when the antioxidant content does not exceed 0.02% by weight of the food’s total fat or oil content. BHA is one of the primary antioxidants used in feeds, because it retards the oxidation of vitamin A, fats, and vegetable oils.
