Advanced Glycation End Products and Nitrosamines in Sausages Influenced by Processing Parameters, Food Additives and Fat during Thermal Processing

Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and nitrosamines (NAs) in sausage are associated with pathogenic and carcinogenic risks. However, the multiple reaction parameters affecting the production of AGEs and NAs during sausage processing remain unclear. This experiment evaluated the effects of proces...

description Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and nitrosamines (NAs) in sausage are associated with pathogenic and carcinogenic risks. However, the multiple reaction parameters affecting the production of AGEs and NAs during sausage processing remain unclear. This experiment evaluated the effects of processing parameters, food additives and fat ratios on the formation of AGEs and NAs in sausages. The results showed a 2–3-fold increase in N<sup>ε</sup>-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML) and N<sup>ε</sup>-(carboxyethyl)lysine (CEL) when the sausage processing temperature was increased from 90 °C to 130 °C, and N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDEA) increased from 3.68 ng/g to 6.41 ng/g. The addition of salt inhibited the formation of AGEs and NAs, and the inhibitory ability of 2 g/100 g of salt was 63.6% for CML and 36.5% for N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA). The addition of 10 mg/kg nitrite to sausages reduced CML formation by 43.9%, however, nitrite had a significant contribution to the formation of NAs. The addition of fat only slightly contributed to the production of CML. In addition, the relationship between α-dicarbonyl compounds and the formation of AGEs was investigated by measuring the changes in α-dicarbonyl compounds in sausages. The results showed two trends of AGEs and α-dicarbonyl compounds: AGEs increased with the increase in α-dicarbonyl compounds and AGE level increased but α-dicarbonyl compound level decreased.
