Based on the principle of liquid core waveguide, a novel microfluidic device with micro-scale detection window capable of sensing flashlight emitted from rapid 1,1'-oxalyldi-4-methylimidazole (OD4MI) chemiluminescence (CL) reaction was fabricated. Light emitted from OD4MI CL reaction occurring in the micro-dimensional

4(5)-Methylimidazole has received the attention of federal and state regulatory agencies because of its carcinogenicity and common presence in foods and beverages. In the present study, the formation of 4(5)-methylimidazole in Maillard reaction model systems consisting of D-glucose/NH(3), L-rhamnose/NH(3), methylglyoxal/NH(3)

A method for the determination of 4(5)-methylimidazole (4MeI) in naturally brewed soy sauce was developed for the first time using solid-phase extraction (SPE) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). SPE on silica-based reversed-phase cartridges with heptafluorobutyric acid as an ion-pairing
