I am afraid you would need access to some very
high-tech analytical instrumentation to perform
the measurements you want to do. There are two
main reasons for this:
1. The concentration of BPA that will leach
into the food are very small, which means you will
need very sensitive detection methods (mass
spectrometry seems to be what is commonly used)
2. If indeed you want to check for leaching of BPA
into food rather than something much simpler such
as water, you are facing the problem of separating
the many different components that are in food and
that might interfere with your measurement (and
that might be around in much higher concentration
than the BPA) from the BPA, without losing
substantial amounts of the BPA in the process.
These problems are common problems faced by
analytical chemists, so it is good to become aware
of them.
