3-CHLORO-1,2-PROPANEDIOL (addendum)

摘要

3-Chloro-1,2-propanediol is formed when chloride ions react with lipid components in foods under a variety of conditions, including food processing, cooking, and storage. The compound has been found as a contaminant in various foods and food ingredients, most notably in acid-hydrolysed vegetable protein (acid-HVP) and soy sauces. 3-Chloro-1,2-propanediol was first evaluated by the Committee at its forty-first meeting (Annex 1, reference 107). The Committee concluded that it is an undesirable contaminant in food and expressed the opinion that its concentration in acid-HVP should be reduced as far as technically achievable.
