3-Chloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD) in soy sauce: A review on the formation, reduction, and detection of this potential carcinogen by Bai, Q.L., Khor, S.M.

“…There are 3 types of soy sauce: fermented, acid-hydrolyzed vegetable protein (acid- HVP), and mixtures of these. 3-Chloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD) is a heat- produced contaminants formed during the preparation of soy sauce and was found to be a by-product of acid-HVPproduced soy sauce in 1978. 3-MCPD has been reported to be carcinogenic, nephrotoxic, and reproductively toxic in laboratory animal testing and has been registered as a chemosterilant for rodent control. 3-MCPD is classified as a possible carcinogenic compound, and the maximum tolerated limit in food has been established at both national and international levels. …”

Health Risk Assessment of Carcinogenic and Non-carcingenic Substances in Underground Water from the Shuangcun Karst System of Central-Southern Shandong Province by ZHAO Qing-ling, LI Qing-cai, XIE Jiang-kun, SHI Qi-peng, CHEN Li-jiao

“…Currently the majority of water quality assessment in China is based on comparison parameters of water with those of drinking water standards.However, to what extent the pollutants influence human health is less known.Herein, Shuangcun karst water samples in central-southern Shandong province were chosen to evaluate human health risk.Using the risk assessment model of USEPA, the risk induced by two carcinogenic substances, such as As, Cr(Ⅵ) and seven non-carcinogenic substances(Hg, F, CN-, NO2--N, NH4+-N, NO3--N, phenols) are evaluated.Results show that concentration of NO3--N and NO2--N in samples from several sites exceeds the limiting value of Hygienic Standard for Drinking Water(GB5749-2006).In terms of annual personal health risk caused by gene toxic substances through water drinking, Cr(Ⅵ) shows greater risk than As.In terms of risk caused by non-gene toxic substances, the induced risk has the sequence of NO3--N> F> NO2--N> Hg> CN-> NH4+-N> phenols.Moreover, the hazard of carcinogenic substances is much stronger than that of non-carcinogenic substances.Cr(Ⅵ) is the primary pollutant.For all the sampling sites, total risk values range from 5.0×10-5 to 10.0×10-5 a-1, and the risk level is Ⅳ(fair).It means that underground water in the sampling area is harmful to human health to some extent.Therefore, it is worth more attention when the studied water serves as the drinking water source.…”

Use of Arabidopsis thaliana as a model to understand specific carcinogenic events: Comparison of the molecular machinery associated with cancer-hallmarks in plants and humans by Diana Carolina Clavijo-Buriticá, Chrystian C. Sosa, Rafael Cárdenas Heredia, Arlen James Mosquera, Andrés Álvarez, Jan Medina, Mauricio Quimbaya

“…From this perspective, model organisms with short generation times and established protocols for genetic manipulation allow the understanding of basic biology principles that might guide carcinogenic onset. The cancer-hallmarks (CHs) approach, a modular perspective for cancer understanding, stands that underlying the variability among different cancer types, critical events support the carcinogenic origin and progression. …”
