Özet

The increasing use of enteral nutrition formulas (ENFs) among vulnerable populations underscores the need for safety evaluations. In this study, 23 ENFs designed for adults, representing ten commercial brands, were analyzed; three were in powder form and twenty in liquid form. This study determined 21 contaminants-7 polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), 9 phenols, and 5 phthalate esters (PAEs). Detected concentrations ranged from
