Original Abstract

The acrylamide is classified by IARC as a probably human carcinogenic agent. Due to a wide occurrence of acrylamide in many staple cereal and potato based foods the exposure to acrylamide cannot be omitted. This study is focused on the evaluation of the preliminary survey on the acrylamide exposure from foods with a supposed higher acrylamide level in the group of high school students in Czech Republic. This survey is based on the preliminary data from monitoring of acrylamide intake from foods in the Slovak and Czech Republics which revealed that the highest intake of acrylamide was observed in the group below 20 years (Marková et al., 2010). A frequency and a distribution of consumption of food during a day were ascertained by standardized interview using a questionnaire with partly free form questions. The data were evaluated depending on gender and time of day consumption. Moreover, the awareness of respondents about the occurrence of acrylamide in food was polled. REFERENCES: IARC, 1994.
