Abstract
BACKGROUND: Acrylamide is a possible carcinogen and known to form in heat-treated carbohydrate-rich foods. This study was designed to investigate the effects of different ingredients (reducing sugars, chemical leavening agents, citric acid), processing conditions (feed moisture content: 22, 24 or 26%, exit die temperature: 110, 150 degrees C), and extrusion cooking methods (with or without CO2 injection) on acrylamide formation.
