Some analytical factors affecting measured levels of acrylamide in food products

Adv Exp Med Biol. 2005:561:285-91. doi: 10.1007/0-387-24980-X_21.

Abstract

Acrylamide in food is normally measured as "free water-soluble acrylamide". However, it is shown that certain extraction techniques, like extraction as for dietary fibre or at high pH can affect the result. This has to be accounted for, particularly in exposure assessment and in studies of bioavailability and, in the long run, the health risk assessment.
