The present work deals with the detection and quantification of phthalates in liquid food products. GC-MS technique was used to detect and quantify the phthalates. Linearity was obeyed in the concentration range of 0.5 to 5 mg/L. The developed method was successfully applied to the analysis of marketed liquid food products. The average recovery of the samples by this method was 102.1%. Among the phthalates generally present, Di 2-ethyl hexyl phthalate was detected in all the samples in the concentration range of 1.31 to 1.65 mg/L. © 2010 RJPBCS.
