Study of the Efficacy of Probiotic Bacteria to Reduce Acrylamide in Food and In Vitro Digestion.

ABSTRACT: In this study, probiotic bacteria as a new post-processing approach to reduce acrylamide (AA) was investigated. The AA reduction ability of selected Lactobacillus strains and Bifidobacterium strains was demonstrated in (a) AA chemical solutions; (b) food matrices (biscuits and chips) and (c) in vitro digestion. The findings showed tested bacteria exhibited AA reduction ability which was probiotic strain-, AA concentration-, probiotic concentration-, incubation time- and pH-dependent. L. acidophilus LA 45 and B. longum ATCC 15707 (10⁹ CFU/mL) showed the highest AA reduction (86.85 and 88.85%, respectively) when exposed to 350 ng/mL AA solution for 8 h. The findings also demonstrated that AA reduction ability of selected probiotic strains was pH- and food matrix-dependent in both food matrices (9.45-22.15%) and in vitro digestion model (10.91-21.29%). This study showed probiotic bacteria can lower AA bioaccessibility under simulated digestion.
