Methylglyoxal was found as one of the most important oxidation product Healy et al, 2008;Cocker et al, 2001;Wyche et al, 2009;Rickard et al, 2010;Kalberer et al, 2004;Yu et al, 1997;Müller et al, 2012;Nishino et al, 2010;Hamilton et al, 2003;Tuazon et al, 1986;Bandow and Washida, 1985;Lim and Turpin, 2015) contributing with a fraction of up to 2 % to the particle mass (Healy et al, 2008;Cocker et al, 2001). Methylglyoxal has often been described to form oligomeric compounds in the aqueous particle phase (see, e.g., Herrmann et al, 2015, for an overview;De Haan et al, 2009;Kalberer et al, 2004;Loeffler et al, 2006;Zhao et al, 2006;Sareen et al, 2010;Altieri et al, 2008), which are supposed to play an important role in the formation of aqueous secondary organic aerosols (aqSOA; e.g.…”
