TABLE III

Total Pool Amounts Measured for Each Target Extractable from Six Successive Extractions of a Single Stopper. Mean and standard deviation values were obtained from three replicate preparations. For comparison purposes, theoretical exhaustively extracted μg/g values are calculated for each medium. These represent the value that would be achieved if the total pool of each oligomer had been completely extracted into the media.
