contained acrylamide when heated above 120 C (Tareke et al.,
2002). So, producing chips with low levels of acrylamide or with
trace levels but without compromising the sensorial properties of
the final product seems to be the major challenge (Zhang & Zhang,
2007). Most of the methods to mitigate the formation of acrylamide
seek to remove its precursors (glucose, fructose, asparagine) or to
inhibit or reduce the intensity of the Maillard reaction by different
process modifications.
