Abstract: A glucose-asparagines reaction model system was used to test the effect of ferulic acid, catechin, CaCl2, NaHSO3, vitamin C and L-cysteine on inhibition of acrylamide formation and it was found that NaHSO3, CaCl2 and L-cysteine significantlyinhibited acrylamide production. Soaking the fresh potato chips by using different concentrations of the three agents greatly inhibits the acrylamide formation in fried potato crisps by frying at 150℃ for 10min and there is no detection of acrylamide when the concentration of cysteine and CaCl2 reached 0.3% and 0.5% respectively.

Key words:  , acrylamide; food additives; inhibition;
