The mean phthalate concentrations were determined to be between 0.095 and 0.633 mg/L in soda, 0.018 and 1.219 mg/L in lemonade, 0.019 and 1.123 mg/L in cola, and 0.085 and 0.312 mg/L in mineral water. bis(2-Ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) showed the highest level of migration into beverages. Furthermore, the influence of the type of preservative (sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate + potassium sorbate) and storage time were determined.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessPhthalatesBeveragesGC-MSEndocrine disruptorArticle8122222810.1007/s12161-014-9896-52-s2.0-84938744966Q1WOS:000347250800027Q2
