Keto aldehyde methylglyoxal

Another carbonyl compound often found in food products is the keto aldehyde methylglyoxal (MGA). Having the same empirical formula and molecular weight as MA, MGA has been of interest primarily as a glycolytic by-pass intermediate. In foods derived from animal tissue MGA is probably formed from... [Pg.396]

The disproportionation of a-keto-aldehydes, such as methylglyoxal, into the corresponding a-hydroxy-carboxylic acids is catalysed by two enzymes, glyoxalase I and glyoxalase II. The former has a bivalent metal ion requirement and Han et al. have sug ted, as a result of a comparative steady-state kinetic study with Mg +, Mn +,... [Pg.315]
