Effects of cooking methods on the formation of heterocyclic aromatic amines of two different species trout

摘要

Heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs) are sometimes formed in meats and fish cooked at high temperatures. In the present study, the effects of cooking methods by deep-fat frying, pan-frying, grilling and barbecuing on the formation of HAAs of fillets of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and brown trout (Salmo trutta fario) were investigated. Barbecued brown trout (1 g) was estimated to contain 0.12 ng of IQ (2-amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline), 0.02 ng 4,8-DiMeIQx (2-amino-3,4,8-trimethylimidazo[4,5-f]qumoxaline). Grilled rainbow trout (1 g) was estimated to contain 0.02 ng 4,8-DiMeIQx. MeIQ (2-amino-3,4-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline), MeIQx (2-amino-3,8-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline) and PhIP (2-ammo-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine) were not detectable in all cooked fish.
