'Acrylamide, a carcinogen in cigarette smoke, is also found in starchy and burnt food. Here\'s why barbecues might not be such a good idea...

It can be absorbed through the skin. AA was shown to be a germ cell clastogen that entails a genetic risk for exposed workers. The genetic risk calculation was based on mouse heritable translocation test data obtained after acute intraperitoneal (ip) exposure (Adler et al., 1994). To obtain a correction factor between ip and dermal exposure, dominant lethal and heritable translocation tests were carried out with dermal exposure of male mice to AA.\" Chemicals In Meat Cooked At High Temperatures And Cancer Risk http://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/causes-prevention/risk/diet/cooked-meats-fact-sheet \"Heterocyclic amines (HCAs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are chemicals formed when muscle meat, including beef, pork, fish, or poultry, is cooked using high-temperature methods, such as pan frying or grilling directly over an open flame (1). In laboratory experiments, HCAs and PAHs have been found to be mutagenic-that is, they cause changes in DNA that may increase the risk of cancer.\" Amended Final Report On The Safety Assessment Of Polyacrylamide And Acrylamide Residues In Cosmetics http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16154914 \"Polyacrylamide is a polymer of controllable molecular weight formed by the polymerization of acrylamide monomers available in one of three forms: solid (powder or micro beads), aqueous solution, or inverse emulsions (in water droplets coated with surfactant and suspended in mineral oil). Residual acrylamide monomer is likely an impurity in most Polyacrylamide preparations, ranging from less than 1 ppm to 600 ppm. Higher levels of acrylamide monomers are present in the solid form compared to the other two forms. Polyacrylamide is reportedly used in 110 cosmetic formulations, at concentrations ranging from 0.05% to 2.8%.\" ____________________ DNews is dedicated to satisfying your curiosity and to bringing you mind-bending stories & perspectives you won\'t find anywhere else!
