Abstract:

Br concentration in bread for baked bread products was shown to be linearly proportional to the amount of Br added per kg of flour used to make the product. Br concentration in bread can be used to help identify those bread products with the greatest likelihood of containing bromate residues. Instrumental neutron activation analysis was used to determine Br in test portions of bread products from commercial bakeries, homemade bread, flour, and unbaked dough. High performance liquid chromatography was used to determine the bromate residue in selected test portions.
