Article Synopsis
- - The study is the first to estimate dietary acrylamide intake in Chile and uses the margin of exposure (MOE) method to assess related health risks.
- - A survey on the consumption of starchy foods in Santiago revealed that potatoes and bread are the main sources of acrylamide, contributing about 77% to total exposure, with daily averages of 0.55 µg/kg and 0.22 µg/kg, respectively.
- - Teenagers aged 12-17 in Chile have the highest acrylamide intake, at a mean of 1.27 µg/kg/day, and the estimated MOEs being below 10,000 indicates a significant public health concern.
