General description

(±)-3-Chloro-1,2-propanediol is a potent human carcinogen. It is formed as a product of acid hydrolysis of vegetable proteins during the process of cooking.

Application

(±)-3-Chloro-1,2-propanediol may be used as a reference standard for the determination of (±)-3-chloro-1,2-propanediol in food samples by gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection (GC-MS).

Recently, organic and inorganic chlorinated compounds were detected in crude and commercially refined palm oils. Further, the predominant formation mechanism of monochloropropanediol (MCPD) diesters at high temperatures (>170-180°C) was revealed. The present study involved the development and comparison of solutions
