The objective of the study was to determine the content of acrylamide in randomly selected samples of potato crisps and French fries using GC/MS/MS. The mean content of acrylamide in tested crisps amounted to 998 µg/kg (range from 352 to 3647 µg/kg) and was almost three times higher than in French fries - 337 µg/kg (range from 88 to 799 µg/kg). Differences (even ten times) in the level of acrylamide...
The objective of the tests was to make preliminary assessment of acrylamide intake from the diet in the category of children and adolescents falling into 7-18 age bracket. For the purposes of assessment the our analytical test results were used of acrylamide content in potato crisps and French fries in samples taken randomly from all over Poland, whereas the intake level was estimated on the basis...
The results of several studies indicate that consumption of trans fatty acids increases plasma LDL-cholesterol and plasma lipoprotein (a) levels, two independent biochemical risk factors for the development of coronary heart disease. With regard to the harmful effect of trans fatty acids on human health and the lack of randomized studies in Poland on their content in food, the monitoring study was...
Helicobacter pylori in gastric mucosa biopsy specimens may be detected by means of several methods like histo-pathological assessment, culture on bacteriological media and urease tests. Comparative evaluation of the two most popular in Poland urease tests („Test Ureazowy" and CLOtest) and bacterial culture on solid medium has been carried out. The sensitivity, specificity and utilitarian properties...
Average consumption and individual intakes of carbohydrate sources and carbohydrates was examined. Declining importance of total carbohydrates as an energy source over a long-term post-war period was documented together with the shifts towards saccharose at the expense of starch. This shift stopped in the last few years due to a reduction in consumer demand for more expensive food groups substituted...
