Abstract:

Organotin is fat-soluble and easy to access to biological body and concentrate through food chains, which will produce toxicity to human and animals. Therefore, studies on organotin analysis in food to ensure food safety and promote human health are important. The current development of analytical methods for organotin in food, including gas chromatography, liquid chromatography and capillary electrophoresis, are reviewed in this paper. Various pre-treatment methods for organotin analysis are also discussed.

Key words: food, organotin, analytical method, development
