In the scientific literature related to the widely understood issue of packaging materials designed to have contact with food (Food Contact Materials – FCM) there is much information on raw materials used for their production, their physiochemical properties, types and parameters. There is also a great number of publications on the management and disposal of used packaging. Unfortunately, not much attention is given to the matters concerning migration of toxic substance from packaging and its actual influence on the body of the final consumer of the food packed, even though health protection and food safety are the priority tasks. The goal of tests was to estimate the impact of foodstuff packaging type, production and storage conditions on the degree of leaching of potentially toxic compounds to foodstuffs with the use of the acute toxicity test Microtox®.
