TI  - Safety issues associated with processing soybeans in an enclosed habitat intended 
      for long-duration space missions.
PG  - 1-7
AB  - Soybeans have been selected to be grown in a habitat (BIO-Plex, Bioregenerative 
      Planetary Life Support Systems Test Complex) designed to evaluate advanced life 
      support systems for long-duration space missions. Soymilk and soy bread will be 
      incorporated into this nutritious, plant-based food system. Because all 
      consumables will be recycled and reused, food safety is a particular concern. 
      Critical control points were identified to control microbiological hazards, 
      particularly mycotoxins, and chemical hazards from antinutrients and volatiles 
      emitted during processing of soymilk and soy bread. Volatile compounds, evolved 
      during the manufacturing of soymilk and soy bread, were quantified by GC/MS to 
      assess their impact on this closed loop system. All concentrations of volatiles 
      evolved during soymilk production were below the 24-h Space Craft Maximum 
      Allowable Concentration (SMAC), while acetaldehyde surpassed the SMAC criteria 
      for soy bread. Recommendations were made for processing of soybeans in such 
      environments to minimize risk to crew member health.
