A Highly Sensitive LC-MS-MS Analysis of Persistent Artificial Sweeteners in Coastal Water from Northern Japan to Sakhalin.

摘要

Artificial sweeteners of sucralose and acesulfame would be spreading into the sea keeping those existing ratios by almost one hundredth concentrations of in-land water. This suggests that the sweeteners are hard to be decomposed in the environment. We have to pay attention to those concentration levels in the environment, even if any toxic effects to humans are not observed yet.
