Certain chlorinated propanols occur as contaminants in hydrolysed vegetable proteins. Processing of defatted vegetable proteins by traditional hydrochloric acid hydrolysis leads to the formation of 3-monochloro-1, 2-propanediol(3-MCPD). The objective of this study was to determine the toxicity of 3-MCPD in the rat following oral(gavage) administration for 13 weeks. (omitted)

More than 500 different compounds have been identified in the cooking process of frying oil as a result of chemical reactions such as oxidation, polymerization, hydrolysis and pyrolysis, 3-MCPDe(3-Monochloropropane -1,2-diol ester) and GE(glycidyl ester) are also included in these compounds. When MCPDe and GE derivatives are absorbed into the body, they are converted into free forms by lipase enzymes, which turn into 3-MCPD and glycidol(2,3-epoxy-1-propanol), respectively. These exhibit genotoxic and carcinogenic effects. As the toxicity of 3-MCPDe and GE is known worldwide, the health risk is being researched. However, regulations have not been established in countries other than the European Union(EU). Several studies for the analysis of 3-MCPDe and GE are being conducted, and direct methods and indirect methods are applied. As a result of analyzing 3-MCPDe and GE contained in commercially available foods by various analysis methods, the content of 3-MCPDe in baby food/infant formula was ND~600 ㎍/mL and GE was ND~750 ㎍/mL. and purified vegetable oils and fats showed <250-8,430 ㎍/mL and 1,880-9,530 ㎍/mL. Thus, 3-MCPDe and GE were detected in various food types, several studies for the reduction of 3-MCPDe and GE are being conducted around the world.

The contamination levels of 3-MCPD(3-Monochloropropane-1,2-diol) and 1,3-DCP(1,3-Dichloro-2-Propanol) in soy sauce, sauces was monitored. 105 samples were collected from June 2005 to August 2005 in Gyeonggi-do. 3-MCPD and 1,3-DCP were analyzed by GCMSD. As results, the detection range of 3-MCPD concentration was between 0.02 mg/kg and 0.27 mg/kg in soy sauce. However any samples were not detected with 1,3-DCP. The contaminated rates of 3-MCPD in soy sauce was 17.1%. Soy sauce is the representative vegetable protein hydrolyzed food. The reliable analytical method f3r the toxic 3-MCPD and 1,3-DCP in Soy sauce has been studied. The derivatization studies of 3-MCPD and 1,3-DCP were performed mainly as Silylation with BSA(N,O-Bis(trimethylsilyl)-acetamide). The retention times of derivative, BSA-MCPD, BSA-DCP were 11.30 and 10.12 minutes.

3-MCPD created in manufacture process was regulated in our country about soy sauce and HVP. The latest paper reported that Bound 3-MCPD is created as intermediate. Germany common risk assesment reported that Bound 3-MCPD must be reduced because Bound 3-MCPD can be created in estimation circle when this is hydrolyzed in human body, but the data about the toxity of Bound 3-MCPD is lack. Therefore, We analysis about 209 items food such as soy sauce, seasoning food and meat-eating manufactured goods using bound 3-MCPD analysis method developed recently. As result of survey, bound 3-MCPD detected in 8 items among 44 traditional sauce (0.02~0.28ppm), 8 of soup 12 items (0.01~0.96ppm), in 22 items of sauce 60 items (0.01~0.55ppm), in 16 items of meat-eating manufactured foods 30 items (0.04~0.18ppm), in 20 items of snack cookies 28 items (0.09~1.43ppm), in 8 in roasted oil foods 10 items (0.04~1.22ppm), in 6 items of peanut processed food 10 items (0.06~0.25ppm), in 1 of vegetable cream 15 items (0.05ppm). Detected level was lower than the result of monitored by other countries.
