Babies are more vulnerable to both environmental and dietary contaminants compared to adults. Hence, the safety of baby foods deserves to be given top priority. In this study, the acrylamide level of 56 different baby foods (6 infant formula and 10 baby biscuit brands) which are widely consumed and have a high level of awareness in Turkey, has been determined and evaluated with LC-MS/MS. Acrylamide level was measured in the range of <LOQ–578 µg kg-1 in infant formulas and 12.3–1,270 µg kg-1 in baby biscuits. The average acrylamide level in baby foods consumed by 0-5, 6-12, and >12 months children were determined to be 45.1, 62.5, and 88.6 µg kg-1, respectively. The average acrylamide level of baby biscuits is 233 µg kg-1. The average acrylamide level corresponding to 1 portion/scale in infant formulas and biscuits was calculated as 0.30 µg/30 mL and 4.72 µg/20 g, respectively. Research results can be used in acrylamide reduction and acrylamide exposure risk assessment studies.

Cholesterol oxidation products (COPS) were estimated in a variety of foods by gas chromatography. Substantial quantities of α- and β-epoxide (2 to 46 and 0 to 111 ppm, respectively) and lesser quantities of 7β-hydroxy- and 7-ketocholesterol were found in powdered egg products. Other foods found to contain COPS included dehydrated chicken, turkey and beef (0 to 43 ppm); and Cheddar, Blue, Romano and Parmesan cheese powders (0 to 17 ppm). Powdered infant formulas and dehydrated baby foods displayed several peaks coinciding to COPS but none were confirmed by mass spectroscopy. COPS were either not detected or noted at &lt; 15 ppm in fresh dairy products.

Contaminants are a vast subject area of food safety and quality and can be present in our food chain from raw materials to finished products. Acrylamide, an α,β-unsaturated (conjugated) reactive molecule, can be detected as a contaminant in several foodstuffs including baby foods and infant formulas. It is anticipated that children will generally have intakes that are two to three times those of adults when expressed on a body-weight basis. Though exposure to acrylamide is inevitable, it is necessary to protect infant and children from high exposure. The present review focuses on the several adverse health effects of acrylamide including mutagenicity, genotoxicity, carcinogenicity, neurotoxicity and reproductive toxicity, and the possible outcomes of childhood exposure from baby foods and infant formulas.
