Changes in food caused by deep fat frying--a review.

TLDR
The purpose of this study was to review literature findings on changes in food caused by the frying process, and to identify potentially toxic compounds developed in the oxidized oil.
Abstract
SUMMARY. Deep-fat frying is widely used in food industries because of its low cost and high demand, since it produces convenient food of high acceptability. The process is based on the oil-food interaction at high temperatures, which cooks and dehydrates the food, leading to physical and chemical changes, such as starch gelatinization, protein denaturation, flavoring and color production via Maillard reaction. Some food and oil compounds are lost in the frying process, and potentially toxic compounds are developed in the oxidized oil. Although widely studied, many of these compounds have not been fully identified. The purpose of this study was to review literature findings on changes in food caused by the frying process.

Portable Electronic Nose Based on Electrochemical Sensors for Food Quality Assessment.

TL;DR: A prototype of a portable, modular electronic nose intended for food analysis is described, and it was possible to classify samples of poultry meat based on shelf-life with 100% accuracy and detect adulterations of extra virgin olive oil with rapeseed oil with 82% overall accuracy.

A Review on Frying: Procedure, Fat, Deterioration Progress and Health Hazards

TL;DR: In this article, a collection of the results obtained from previous studies about product deterioration and safety issues due to the frying process, along with related tables, are of prime importance, and it can be concluded that a vacuum, oil replenishment, frying temperature, and time of process are the most important parameters affecting the quality of oils and fried products; hence, it is possible to prevent the formation of toxic compounds and loss of nutritional components to a considerable extent during frying operation.

Self-Assembly of Monodisperse Carbon Dots into High-Brightness Nanoaggregates for Cellular Uptake Imaging and Iron(III) Sensing.

TL;DR: Without the conjugation of the fluorophore to the CDs, the particle aggregation-induced red-shifted emission enables the development of the CD-based ratiometric sensor for FeIII ions and pyrophosphate based on FeIII-induced aggregation of the monodisperse CDs.

Acrylamide from Maillard reaction products

TL;DR: It is shown that acrylamide can be released by the thermal treatment of certain amino acids (asparagine, for example), particularly in combination with reducing sugars, and of early Maillard reaction products (N-glycosides).

Mechanism and reduction of fat uptake in deep-fat fried foods

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that fat uptake is determined by two mechanisms: the condensation effect and the capillary effect, and major reductions claimed in literature and patents are found for coating and batter formulations using various types of biopolymers.
