This paper presents results of finding on losses of mercury, arsenic and cadmium in the unfried and fried fish. International Nuclear Information System (INIS)ĭetermination of mercury, arsenic and cadmium in unfried and fried fish samples has been carried out by neutron activation followed by chemical separation to remove the interfering activies of copper, zinc etc. Mercury, arsenic and cadmium in the unfried and fried fish © 2012 Institute of Food Technologists® This suggestion allows preparing safe fried foods for consumers. Under the studied conditions, the tested oil blend may be used during 4 d (4 h per day) with a daily replenishment, without discarding the oil when frying fish nuggets, and must be discarded after 8 d when French fries are processed. The studied foods have high economic importance and are different in their composition. The results are useful for producers of French fries and fish nuggets, such as restaurants or fast foods sellers, providing them with practical guidelines within the permitted values established by the regulatory authorities. The degradation of oil during repeated use was relatively faster when fish nuggets were fried than when French fries were fried, as higher values of total polar compounds were obtained. In this study, the effect of the food type ( fish nuggets or French fries) on the degradation of an oil blend during the deep-fat frying of each food at 180Â☌ during 12 days was determined, and the characteristics of the fried products were evaluated. Oil that is reused multiple times for deep frying goes through changes in chemical composition and physical characteristics, affecting the quality of the fried foods. The effect of food type ( fish nuggets or French fries) on oil blend degradation during repeated frying.įlores-Ãlvarez, MarÃa Del Carmen Molina-Hernández, Erika F Hernández-Raya, José Concepción Sosa-Morales, MarÃa Elena Data is collected before and during the Lenten fish fry season each year by Code for Pittsburgh.
