3-Monochloro-1,2-propane diol is a suspected carcinogen found in hydrolysed vegetable protein products such as soy sauce. A method is described for the analysis of 3-monochloro-1,2-propane diol in soy sauce by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry at a concentration range of 1–5000 ng g−1 using 4-hep...
