Abstract
⺠Alcoholic fermentation of sugar-cane juice (cachaça) produces ethyl carbamate (EC). ⺠EC control in beverages is important due its carcinogenic potential. ⺠EC is already formed in the steps of distillation and fermentation. ⺠Studies are necessary to determine pathway(s) of formation in beverages. ⺠It is essential to separate head and tail fractions to ensure cachaça quality.
