Effects of oral acrylamide intake on blood viscosity parameters in rats

Abstract: Acrylamide which is formed via reaction of reducing sugars with amino acids during food processing at high temperatures is not only neurotoxic and carcinogenic, but it also damages erythrocyte membrane and generates micronucleated erythrocytes. In the present study, effects of chronic administration of acrylamide at a dose which does not induce neurotoxicity were evaluated on blood viscosity parameters (hematocrit, erythrocyte deformability, erythrocyte aggregation and plasma viscosity). Twenty adult male Spra… Show more

“…which does not induce neurotoxicity alters blood viscosity. Increased blood viscosity means decreased fluidity of blood which might increase chances of cardiovascular disease [65]. A subsequent study evaluated the toxicity of ACR exposure in male F344 rats.…”

“…The viscosity and resistance of the blood flow are decreased by erythrocyte deformability. This characteristic is especially significant during the transition across capillaries smaller than the diameter of erythrocytes (6). In contrast to the platelets, RBCs aggregate spontaneously.…”

“…(Hashimoto and Aldridge., 1970). Polyacrylamides have various applications such as, paper strengthening, waste water treatment, production of biomedical and scientific enquiry materials like electrophoresis gels and personal care products such as lotions, cosmetics and deodorizers, hence a major source of occupational poisoning (Arihan et al, 2011). Acrylamide is also formed in foods that are rich in carbohydrates when they are cooked above 120C especially by the reaction of reducing sugars and amino acids like asparagine (Mottram et al, 2002;Stadler et al, 2002).…”
