A novel technique, corona discharge ion mobility spectrometry (CD-IMS), was developed for the qualitative and quantitative determination of 2-furfural (F) and 5-methyl-2-furfural (MF) in aqueous solutions. The limits of detection (LODs) were 5.3 x 10(-3) microg/mL for F and 6.7

The furans, furfural and methylfurfural, are dietary mutagens that are present in various food products and beverages. AT base-pair-depleted calf thymus DNA was prepared by the action of pea seed single-strand-specific nuclease on native DNA. Compared with furan-treated native DNA

The formation of toxic fermentation inhibitors such as furfural and 5-hydroxy-2-methylfurfural (HMF) during acid (pre-)treatment of lignocellulose, calls for the efficient removal of these compounds. Lignocellulosic hydrolysates can be efficiently detoxified biologically with microorganisms that specifically metabolize the fermentation inhibitors
