Reduction of 4-methylimidazole in caramel coloring by ɣ-irradiation
4-Methylimidazole (4-MEI) is a simple nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound, and recently classified as group 2B by International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). Caramel coloring is widely applied food coloring in many food products including coffee, carbonated beverages, beer and wine. In present study, ɣ-irradiation was applied to Caramel Color III to reduce the level of 4-MEI witho...

In this study, the quick HPLC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous separation of 2-acetyl-4(5)-tetrahydrox-ybuthylimidazole (THI) and 4-(5)-methylimidazole (4-MI) in alkaline medium was used for caramel color and processed foods in Korea. After a simple sample pretreatment, 51 4-MI-labeled samples were positive for 4-MI and 2 also contained THI. The concentration of 4-MI was 260.5 ~ 24,499.3 μg/kg...

Caramel color is added to many widely-consumed beverages as a colorant. Consumers of these beverages can be exposed to 4-methylimidazole (4-MEI), a potential carcinogen formed during its manufacture. California's Proposition 65 law requires that beverages containing 4-MEI concentrations corresponding to exposures that pose excess cancer risks > 1 case per 100,000 exposed persons (29 μg 4-MEI/da...
متن کاملDirect analysis of 4-methylimidazole in foods using paper spray mass spectrometry.
Rapid qualitative and quantitative analysis of 4-methylimidazole (4-MEI) in caramel and beverage samples is demonstrated using the paper spray form of ambient ionization mass spectrometry. The minimum level of pure 4-MEI detectable using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) in a triple quadrupole instrument was 3 pg μL⁻¹ in neat solvent and 5 pg μL⁻¹ in a matrix containing caramel. This method wa...
