| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of the current study was to ascertain the effects that the number of times that tableware was washed by meal preparation facilities had on the amount of formaldehyde that eluted from and the amount of formaldehyde that was dispersed by that tableware. Set temperatures for meal delivery carts at meal preparation facilities were examined. Results indicated that the set temperature for heat retention by meal delivery carts was most often 65℃, so the warming temperature for tableware made of melamine resin was 65℃. Acetylacetone was used to measure the amount of formaldehyde that eluted into food. This measurement approach was inadequate, so measurement was not possible. Thus, measurement approaches were examined. An approach involving derivation of formaldehyde with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine yielded results, and this approach is currently used by the authors to measure the amount of formaldehyde that is dispersed as well.
