Beta-chlorolactic acid is a major intermediate of 3-monochloro-1,2-propanediol (MCPD) in mammalian species. 3-Monochloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD) is a food contaminant known to display toxic effects. 3-MCPD is mainly produced in the refining of vegetable fats and oils, so in the heat treatments to remove undesired substances.

For your investigations and analysis, we can offer the ß-Chlorolactic acid as isotope-labelled internal standard.
