Concentration and formation behavior of naturally occurring formaldehyde in foods

Abstract: Background: In recent years, formaldehyde is reported to be widely used as a food preservative to increase the shelf life of fruits and fishes in tropical countries. Formaldehyde is detrimental to human health. Hence, use of formaldehyde as a food preservative is legally prohibited in most of the countries. To regulate formaldehyde application in foods, the regulatory bodies often conduct on-the-spot analytical tests to detect artificially added formaldehyde in food items. However, formaldehyde is ubiquitous i… Show more

“…26 Foods derived from animal origin like milk and fish are known to contain trace amounts of FA and these two food samples are the most frequently adulterated. [27][28][29] This validated method could quantify accurately the level of endogenous FA in raw and pasteurized milk. Goat milk samples showed slightly higher levels (median: 255 ng/mL) compared with those from cow: 155 mg/mL and buffalo: 134 ng/mL.…”

“…The HCHO sensor senses the concentration of the formaldehyde from the detected fruit by placing near it. Considering naturally occurring formalin [19] in a fruits, our system identifies the level of artificially added formalin in a sample food. HC-05 Bluetooth module is used to interface the device with our self-made Android application.…”
