“…Formaldehyde is used in chemical synthesis in the production of detergents, soaps, shampoos, and other cosmetic products as well as for the manufacturing of building materials, such as plywood lacquers, coatings, or glues. Outside of industrial processes, it is also well known that formaldehyde exists naturally in some vegetables and fruits [5]. For instance, pears (38.7–60 mg/kg), grapes (22.4 mg/kg), potatoes (19.5 mg/kg), bananas (16.3 mg/kg), bulb vegetables (11.0 mg/kg), apples (6.3–22.3 mg/kg), carrots (6.7–10.0 mg/kg), and watermelons (9.2 mg/kg) are the aliments that contain the most amount of formaldehyde.…”
