Abstract
While baking produces attractive flavors for foods, it also generates various endogenous by-products, including acrylamide (AA), 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF), advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and methylimidazole (MI). This review briefly presents the recent studies on the above hazards, and research progress on the formation and control of the above substances in detail. There have been more detailed studies on a single category of hazards. However, few studies and reports have considered the integrated prevention and control of multiple hazards, which is related to the difficulty of analyzing the reaction mechanisms of multiple hazards at multiple scales and under multiple phases in complex food matrices. In this regard, the sample pretreatment methods are a crucial step in achieving simultaneous detection. The coordinated implementation of various methods, including reducing precursor levels, modifying baking conditions and equipment, and incorporating exogenous additives, is necessary to achieve a synchronized reduction in multiple hazardous substances.

Application of gas flow headspace liquid phase micro extraction coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry for determination of 4-methylimidazole in food samples employing experimental design optimization. BMC Chem 2022; 16:29. [PMID: 35524272 PMCID: PMC9077832 DOI: 10.1186/s13065-022-00823-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2021] [Accepted: 04/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/05/2022] Open
Abstract
Background 4-Methylimidazole (4-MeI) or 4-methyl-1H-imidazole, a slightly yellowish solid with molecular formula C4H6N2, is a heterocyclic compound which supposedly does not exist as a natural product and is formed when carbohydrates are heating with ammonium compounds. This compound is used in pharmaceuticals, agriculture and photography chemicals, dyes and pigments, and rubber manufacturing. In the present study, a simple and efficient sample preparation method designated gas flow headspace liquid phase microextraction (GF-HS-SDME) was employed for the extraction and preconcentration of 4-methylimidazole (4-MeI) from food and beverage samples, before its determination by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Result To investigate the optimal conditions for the extraction process in GF-HS-SDME method, factors affecting extraction, including selection of extraction solvent, vial volume, extraction solvent ratio, position of extracting solvent, drop volume, sample volume, stirring speed, temperature, extraction time, sample pH, ionic strength of the sample solution and gas flow rate were optimized by utilizing both one-variable-at-a-time method and Plackett–Burman design. The investigation of protocol was carried out by using a standard solution containing 100.0 μg L−1 of 4-MeI in deionized water. Conclusion In this study, a simple and green analytical method based on GF-HS-SDME was proposed for the extraction and preconcentration of 4-MeI from foodstuffs, followed by GC–MS determination. The main advantage of this method is its high preconcentration factor and fastness due to the application of an inert gas stream during microextraction.

Abstract
Herein, a facile and fast surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) method with ratiometric strategy was developed for detection of 4-methylimidazole (4-MI). Via a chemical derivatization reaction with 3-amino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole (AMTA) diazonium salts, 4-MI could be converted to SERS-sensitive species. The SERS intensity ratio between the peaks at 1243 cm-1 and 1110 cm-1 (I1243/I1110) was used for the quantification of 4-MI. In addition, the method sensitivity was further improved by the aggregation of beta-cyclodextrin-modified Ag nanoparticles (beta-CD-AgNPs). Under the optimal conditions, the limit of detection (LOD) and the limit of quantification (LOQ) for 4-MI were 1.7 nM (S/N = 3) and 5.7 nM (S/N = 10), respectively. The relative standard deviation (RSD) for 0.5 μM 4-MI was 8.2% (n = 20). This method was successfully used for the determination of 4-MI in cola samples with recoveries ranging from 92% to 106%. The present method is convenient, sensitive, selective, reliable and may have a promising application in determination of the compounds with an imidazole ring containing active hydrogen atoms.

A Review of the Analytical Methods for the Determination of 4(5)-Methylimidazole in Food Matrices. CHEMOSENSORS 2021.

Abstract
4(5)-Methylimidazole (4(5)MEI) is a product of the Maillard reaction between sugars and amino acids, which occurs during the thermal processing of foods. This compound is also found in foods with caramel colorants additives. Due to its prevalence in foods and beverages and its potent carcinogenicity, 4(5)MEI has received federal and state regulatory agency attention. The aim of this review is to present the extraction procedures of 4(5)MEI from food matrices and the analytical methods for its determination. Liquid and gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry are the techniques most commonly employed to detect 4(5)MEI in food matrices. However, the analysis of 4(5)MEI is challenging due to the high polarity, water solubility, and the absence of chromophores. To overcome this, specialized sample pretreatment and extraction methods have been developed, such as solid-phase extraction and derivatization procedures, increasing the cost and the preparation time of samples. Other analytical methods for the determination of 4(5)MEI, include capillary electrophoresis, paper spray mass spectrometry, micellar electrokinetic chromatography, high-performance cation exchange chromatography, fluorescence-based immunochromatographic assay, and a fluorescent probe.

Abstract
In this study, a highly specific and sensitive monoclonal antibody (mAb) against quinclorac (Qui) was prepared. Based on the selected mAb, 2G3, an indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ic-ELISA) and an immunochromatographic strip assay were established for the detection of Qui in actual samples. The 50%-inhibitory concentration of mAb 2G3 against Qui was 48.763 ng mL-1. No cross-reaction with other quinolines indicated that mAb 2G3 had high specificity. The recovery of the established ic-ELISA method was in the range of 85.6% to 98.9%. The cut-off value of Qui in cucumber and tomato by immunochromatographic strip was 200 ng g-1. The analysis results of ic-ELISA and immunochromatographic strip assay were consistent with the results of LC-MS/MS, which further proved that the established ic-ELISA and immunochromatographic strip assay could provide valuable tools for the rapid detection of Qui residues in cucumber and tomato samples.
