This manuscript describes enhancement of soluble production, auto-cleavage analysis and assessment of acrylamide mitigation potential of Tk2246, a plant-type L-asparaginase from . The gene encoding Tk2246 was cloned and expressed in . Recombinant Tk2246 was produced mainly in insoluble form. Various strategies were utilized to enhance the soluble production, which significantly increased the soluble yield. Interestingly, recombinant Tk2246 was produced even without addition of the inducer, though relatively in a lower amount. To our surprise, Tk2246 was produced in partially cleaved form when the inducer was not added in the culture. When applied for acrylamide mitigation, Tk2246 reduced the acrylamide formation more than 80% in French fries, chapati and yeast-leavened bread. In addition to acrylamide mitigation, Tk2246 exhibited antistaling activity without loss of sensory properties of the food. High activity, thermostability and efficient acrylamide reduction capability make Tk2246 a potential candidate for industrial applications.

This study investigated the neuromodulatory potential of zinc against acrylamide-induced cognitive impairment. Acrylamide (AA), a toxic substance commonly found in certain foods such as potato, grains and coffee, is known to cause neurological damage and severe cognitive decline. Twenty (20) male Wistar rats were divided into four groups (n = 5) by random selection.

The increasing complexity of food production and processing has raised concerns regarding food process contaminants, which pose significant public health risks. Food process contaminants can be introduced during diverse phases of food processing such as drying, heating, grilling, and fermentation, resulting in the synthesis of harmful chemicals including acrylamide (AA), advanced glycation end products (AGEs), heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs), furan and its naturally occurring derivatives, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), N-nitroso compounds (NOCs), 2-chloropropane-1,2-diol esters (2-MCPDE), and 3-chloropropane-1,2-diol esters (3-MCPDE), ethyl carbamate (EC), glycidyl esters (GE), and 4-methylimidazole (4-MEI), all of these are harmful to human health. Although these compounds can be somewhat prevented during processing, eliminating them can often be challenging due to their unknown formation mechanism.
