Samples purchased were stored in three different coloured bottles: clear (CL), light blue (LB) and dark blue (DB). Sb migration was assayed by HG-AFS for total determination and HPLC-ICP-MS for speciation analysis. Migration studies showed that waters stored at 4 and 20 oC were not subject to Sb migration. At 40 oC there was a significant increase in Sb concentration, although the maximum limit established by the European Union (5.0 ug/L) was not exceeded, whereas at 60 oC samples were subject to considerable Sb migration after 30 days of storage. In this case, the maximum limit established by the European Union was exceeded and both Sb (V) and Sb (III) were detected.29 p.application/pdfeng(c) Elsevier B.V., 2014Aigües mineralsTereftalat de polietilèEnvasosQuímica analíticaSemimetallsContaminació de l'aiguaMineral watersPolyethylene terephthalateContainersAnalytical chemistrySemimetalsWater pollutioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6433882014-09-23info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
