    Abstract:
    A simple and rapid analytical method was developed for the determination of formaldehyde (FA) and acetaldehyde (AA) contents in water. FA and AA were derivatized by 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine in an LC vial for 20 min at room temperature, about 25 °C, and analyzed using LC-MS/MS. The calibration curve exhibited excellent linearity for FA and AA concentrations of 2-150 ng/mL. Recovery tests using ultra-pure water and commercially available PET-bottled mineral water samples showed good trueness and precision. We determined the FA and AA contents in 105 PET-bottled mineral water samples on the Japanese market using this method. FA was detected in 61% of the samples at levels from 2.6 to 31.4 ng/mL, while AA was detected in 68% at levels from 5.3 to 143.5 ng/mL. These results demonstrate that the concentrations of FA and AA in PET-bottled mineral water on the Japanese market have not changed significantly over the last decade.
