Acrylamid can under certain
conditions appear during the production and preparation of food
containing carbohydrates, such as pototoes or wheat from natural
food. Acrylamid is known as a carcinogenic
substance and the amounts in food should be as low as possible.
The Sofia GmbH determines Acrylamid in food by means of LC-MS/MS (see Deutsche Lebensmittelrundschau 12/2002) as well as with GC-MS/MS after derivatisation (method according to EPA 8032 A, bromination).
