Abstract

High-temperature cooking process like frying, baking, smoking, or drying can induce chemical transformations in conventional food ingredients, causing deteriorative modifications. These reactions, including hydrolytic, oxidative, and thermal changes, are a common occurrence and can result in alterations to the food's chemical composition. In this study, a combination of sucrose and histidine (Su-Hi) was transformed through a process of charring or pyrolysis. The GC-MS profiling study showed that when sucrose and histidine (Su-Hi) are exposed to high temperatures (≈240°C), they produce carbonyl and aromatic compounds including beta-D-Glucopyranose, 1,6-anhydro (10.11 %), 2-Butanone, 4,4-dimethoxy- (12.89 %), 2(1H)-Quinolinone-hydrazine (5.73%), Benzenamine (6.35%), 2,5-Pyrrolidinedione, 1-[(3,4-dimethylbenzoyl)oxy]- (5.82%), Benzene-(1-ethyl-1-propenyl) (5.62%), and 4-Pyridinamine-2,6-dimethyl (5.52%). The compounds mentioned have the ability to permeate the cell membrane and contribute to the development of cell death by necrosis in human immune cells. The evidence available suggests that a specific set of pyrolytic compounds may pose a risk to immune cells. This investigation reveals the complex relationship between high-temperature cooking-induced transformations, compound permeation inside the cells, and downstream cellular responses, emphasizing the significance of considering the broader health implications of food chemical contaminants.
