(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
Acrylamide is also a probable carcinogen found in small quantities in some foods. It is believed to be created in foods when starches and other carbohydrates are overheated (far past 100°C) during cooking. Some sources claim that people in the modern world consume daily on average around 25 microgramss of acrylamide, and that this accounts for a significant number of cases of cancer.
The CAS registry number for acrylamide is 79-06-1 and its UN number is 2074.
