摘要: Acrylamide is mainly formed in fried and baked carbohydrate rich foodstuffs such as potato chips crisps through maillard reaction at elevated temperatures. This study was designed to determine the levels of acrylamide commercial those sold Nairobi, Kenya. Different brands were purchased from retail outlets while unbranded (street) samples kiosks five districts Nairobi County. The a total 35 branded 15 samples. parameters analyzed moisture, colour content. moisture content ranged 0.39% 7.97%. There significant (P≤0.05) difference among crisp L* a* b* parameters. Most light colored with lightness (L*) greater than 50 apart only two tended towards green shown by negative values redness parameter (a*) indicating that there less or no excess browning products during frying. All yellow indicated positive yellowness (b*). significantly differed between traded ranging non-detectable 8666 μg kg−1 it 5666 Kiosk 7 9499 6. (P<0.05) crisps. flavoured non-detectable.
