    Abstract:
    Acrylamide in fried and baked foods has the potential to cause toxic effects in animals and humans. A major challenge lies in developing an effective strategy for acrylamide mitigation in foods without altering its basic properties. Food scientists around the world have developed various methods to mitigate the presence of acrylamide in fried food products. Mitigation techniques using additives such as salts, amino acids, cations and organic acids along with blanching of foods have reduced the concentration of acrylamide. The use of secondary metabolites such as polyphenols also reduces acrylamide concentration in fried food products. Other mitigation techniques such as asparaginase pre-treatment and low-temperature air frying with chitosan have been effective in mitigating the concentration of acrylamide. The combined pre-treatment process along with the use of additives is the latest trend in acrylamide mitigation. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.
