Abstract
Bacon manufacturing involves several processing steps including nitrite curing, followed by cooking processes, typically frying. During these processes, harmful processing contaminants such as N-nitrosamines (NAs) and heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs) can be formed. Consequently, we developed and validated a multi-class method for quantification of the most frequently reported HAAs and NAs in fried bacon. Satisfactory repeatability and reproducibility with limits of quantification between 0.1 and 0.5 ng g-1 for most of the compounds were achieved. Quantification in pan-fried bacon cubes and slices revealed generally low levels of individual HAAs (≤1.5 ng g-1), except in ready-to-eat bacon (0.9-2.9 ng g-1). Differences in amounts of individual HAAs were observed in cubes and slices, most likely due to meat thickness. Among volatile NAs (VNAs), only N-nitrosopiperidine (NPIP), N-nitrosopyrolidine (NPYR), and N-nitrosodibutylamine (NDBA) were found at generally low concentrations (≤5 ng g-1). In contrast, non-volatile NAs (NVNAs) were present in all tested samples at considerably higher amounts, for example, N-nitroso-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid (NTCA) at 12-77 ng g-1. N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA), N-nitrosodipropylamine (NDPA) were not detected in any samples. Statistical evaluation and principal component analysis revealed some differences among tested samples. Dietary exposure estimation of the Danish population to HAAs and NAs showed the highest exposure in the teenage group (10-17 years).

The Effect of Partial Substitution of Beef Tallow on Selected Physicochemical Properties, Fatty Acid Profile and PAH Content of Grilled Beef Burgers. Foods 2022; 11:foods11131986.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to analyze the impact of partial replacement of beef tallow with sunflower, canola, linseed, olive oil and milk fat on physical properties, oxidation stability, fatty acid profile and PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) content of beef burgers. Studies have shown a strong relationship between the fatty acid profile and the PAH content (especially of the heavy PAHs). The partial replacement of beef tallow with oils and milk fat (MF) contributed to a change in the fatty acid profile and a reduction in the hardness of the burgers. The highest PAH content was found in samples with canola oil (CO), which had the highest levels of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA), and in the control group (CON) without fat substitution, which had the highest levels of saturated fatty acids (SFA) and trans conformations. Substitution of animal fat with vegetable oils contributed to a change in the color of the burgers’ surface, as there was a statistically significant increase in the L* color component and a decrease in the a* component. The burgers with canola oil (CO) and linseed oil (LO) were the most susceptible to oxidation, whereas the burgers with reduced fat content (CON_LOW FAT) were the most stable in terms of oxidation, where the malondialdehyde (MDA) content was 32.8% lower compared with the control group (CON). The studies confirm that partial replacement of beef tallow with vegetable oils and milk fat and reduction in fat content in burgers to be grilled can be an effective way to change their fatty acid profile and reduce the cyclization reaction of organic compounds leading to the formation of PAH. Correlation coefficient analysis showed that there is a relationship between fatty acid profile and the presence of selected PAHs in grilled beef burgers. The results of this study indicate that replacing beef tallow with vegetable oils is a promising approach in designing meat products with controlled PAH content.

Abstract
This study aims to determine the amounts of seven volatile N-nitrosamine (VNA) derivatives which are in the risk group, in processed sausages. It also aimed to investigate the effects of the amount of added ascorbic acid, on the VNA level during the sausage manufacturing processes. For this purpose, meat doughs were prepared with two different levels of ascorbic acid. These meat doughs were put into the production process and packaged in two different packages. Thus, VNA derivatives and their amounts were determined according to production stages (heat treatments), packaging method (vacuum, MAP), storage process (Day 1, 7, 15, 30, 60, 90). As a result, it was found that the sausage product carries risk of VNA formation from the beginning of its production until the last day of storage before consumption for up to 90 days.

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in meat products are formed, among others, as a by-product of thermal processing such as smoking or grilling. Due their highly toxic effects on the human organism, it is necessary to monitor PAH content in food products and develop appropriate analytical methods for their determination. The aim of this study was to compare PAH content in meat products subjected to smoking or grilling process. PAH content was determined using three different analytical methods, verified for efficiency using the external standard method. The results showed that smoking led to higher PAH contamination compared to grilling. Extraction by saponification and SPE method was the most effective for the detection and quantification of PAHs. The samples analyzed using this method showed the highest PAH content and recoveries. The results of the study showed a significant effect of the extraction method on the recovery levels and PAH content in meat.

Abstract
Several epidemiological studies emphasize the consumption of processed meat products as a risk factor of colorectal cancer, linking N-nitrosamines (NAs) formed during nitrite curing to this cancer risk. The occurrence of volatile N-nitrosamines (VNAs) has over the years been intensively studied while the knowledge on the occurrence and toxicity of non-volatile N-nitrosamines (NVNAs) is still limited. Therefore, this study focuses on quantification of both VNAs and NVNAs in a large selection of processed meat products. For this purpose, a robust, specific and sensitive method allowing analysis of seven VNAs and two NVNAs was optimized and validated using kassler, sausage, and salami. The limit of quantification achieved was 0.1-0.5 ng·g-1 for most of the VNA, and 2.3-4.2 ng·g-1 for the NVNA. In one hundred commercial samples N-nitroso-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid (NTCA) was the most frequently detected (97 samples) among all target NAs and it was found at concentrations ranging from 3.1 ng·g-1 to 1660 ng·g-1. The samples contained relatively low mean levels of the individual VNAs (≤1 ng·g-1). The levels of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), N-nitrosopyrrolidine (NPYR), and N-nitrosopiperidine (NPIP) ranged from non-detectable to 3.8, 10.8 and 2.9 ng·g-1, respectively. A correlation between the detected residual levels of nitrite and/or nitrate and concentrations of individual NAs could not be demonstrated. Based on principle component analysis (PCA) some correlations between salami, sausage and bacon and NAs could be shown.

Abstract
Charcoal-grilling is a popular cooking method but causes the formation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which can be harmful to human health. Gochujang marinade is commonly used for flavoring meats during charcoal-grilling. However, the effects of this marinade on PAHs formation during charcoal-grilling are unclear. Here, we evaluated the effects of Gochujang marinade on the formation of 16 PAHs and inhibition rate of major PAHs (benzo[a]anthracene, benzo[b]fluoranthene, and benzo[a]pyrene) in charcoal-grilled pork belly. Pork belly without marinade (PBW) and marinated with Gochujang (PBG) were stored for 10 days at 9°C under vacuum conditions and then charcoal-grilled to different doneness (internal temperatures of 71°C and 81°C). Among 16 PAHs evaluated in this study, 14 PAHs were detected in charcoal-grilled pork belly, regardless of doneness. PAH formation in charcoal-grilled pork belly was higher at an internal temperature of 81°C than at 71°C (p<0.05). Initially, PBG showed reduced total PAH formation and lower percentages of three major PAHs compared with PBW. Storage increased the inhibitory effects of PBG on the 16 PAHs, and the maximum reduction in total 16 PAHs (63.06%) was observed with moderate cooking (71°C) on day 10 (p<0.05). Moreover, marinade and doneness showed a high interaction with regard to PAH contents in charcoal-grilled pork belly (p<0.05-p<0.0001). Therefore, our findings suggested that marinating pork belly with Gochujang and grilling at 71°C could reduce the formation of 16 PAHs in charcoal-grilled pork belly.

Abstract
The effect of radiofrequency (RF) heating technology at 27 MHz and 8 kW on the quality properties of vacuum-packed nitrite-free sausages was investigated. One of the several advantages of RF heating technology is the use of less time compared to retort heating. RF heating at 125 °C for a holding time of 2 min and retort heating at 121 °C for 7 min reduced Bacillus subtilis to 7 log cfu/g. In addition, the textural properties of the RF-heated sausages were better than those of retort-heated samples. Furthermore, the growth of B. subtilis and general live bacteria at 25 °C were not detected after 42 days of shelf life in the sausages that underwent RF heating at 125 °C with a holding time of 2 min.

Abstract
N-nitrosamines are harmful components that can be formed in processed meat products. Due to its production technique, salami is an important meat product in terms of volatile N-nitrosamines. In this regard, the presence of volatile N-nitrosamines, which may pose a risk for human health, was investigated in salami. N-nitrosamines were extracted from the salami and determined with a validated GC-MS method. Accordingly, the analysed samples of salami contained 7.86-29.11 ppb total volatile N-nitrosamines. The salami brand affected the type and level of N-nitrosamines (P <,005).
