Exploring Formation and Control of Hazards in Thermal Processing for Food Safety

Le résumé fourni par la source

Thermal-processed foods like baked, smoked, and fried products are popular for their unique aroma, taste, and color. However, thermal processing can generate various contaminants via Maillard reaction, lipid oxidation, and thermal degradation, negatively impacting human health. This review summarizes the formation pathways, influencing factors, and tracing approaches of potential hazards in thermally processed foods, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs), furan, acrylamide (AA), trans fatty acids (TFAs), advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), sterol oxide. The formation pathways are explored through understanding high free radical activity and multiple active intermediates. Control patterns are uncovered by adjusting processing conditions and food composition and adding antioxidants, aiming to inhibit hazards and enhance the safety of thermal-processed foods.
