Description

Sumeyra Sevim and co-authors build a better test for a risky chemical in baby formula in a 2025 paper. Acrylamide, a suspect carcinogen, forms when formula ingredients are heated in production. Measuring it in fatty, sugary powders is fiddly, and older methods are slow and costly.

Their recipe hydrates the powder, crashes out proteins with a solvent, and polishes the extract with two sorbents before the instrument reads it. The method proved straight-lined, sensitive, and repeatable, catching amounts down to ten parts per billion. In thirty-one formulas, cereal-based ones carried the most by far, and one amino-acid formula topped the list. The protocol gives regulators a sharper routine check.
