Abstract | Acrylamide (C3H5NO) is a food processing contaminant that has been classed as a probable (Group 2a) human carcinogen. Acrylamide forms from the reaction of free (non-protein) asparagine with reducing sugars during food processing. All major cereal products are affected and wheat products represent one of the main sources of dietary acrylamide intake in Europe. |
