Abstract:Chlorate is a food contaminant that is mainly attributed to the use of chlorinated water and disinfectants. The present study investigated if chlorate could also occur as a process contaminant in chemical leavening agents for baking products. Thus, a sensitive and rapid ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography−tandem mass spectrometry method was developed and validated. Chlorate was quantified using an isotopically labeled internal standard after complete degassing of carbonate-based products. The limit of … Show more
