In really large doses, acrylamide totally is toxic.

在非常大的剂量下，丙烯是有毒的。

There are other things you can do to limit your exposure to acrylamides.

另外，你还可以采取其他途径减少丙烯的摄入量。

And it's being estimated that french fries account for nearly a quarter of all the acrylamide in our diets.

据估计，薯条中丙烯的量占我们饮食中丙烯量的近四分之。

So far, based on the research, it looks like acrylamide isn't very likely to cause cancer in humans.

截至到目前，根据研究，看起来丙烯不太可能导致人类癌症。

And the International Agency for Research on Cancer also listed acrylamide as a “probable carcinogen”.

另外国际癌症研究机构也把丙烯列入“可能致癌的物质”。

Probably the worst ingredient eating just chips would put into your body is a chemical known as acrylamide.

也许因为吃薯条而吃进身内的最糟糕的种物质是丙烯的化学物质。

Acrylamide is considered a heat generated food toxic in and is known to be a mutagen neurotoxin and carcinogen.

丙烯被认为是种因受热而产生的食物毒素，已知是种神经毒素的诱变因素和致癌物。

Coffee companies have resisted calls to remove acrylamide from their products, saying it would change the taste of the drinks.

针对从产品中去除丙烯声，咖啡公司表示拒绝，他们称将改变饮品的口感。

Research shows that, compared with traditional deep-frying, air frying can reduce acrylamide by 90 percent.

研究表明，与传统油炸相比， 空气炸制可减少 90% 的丙烯。

And other work on rats has also shown that acrylamide could attach itself to parts of red blood cells, and ultimately damage DNA.

而对老鼠的实验结果也表明，丙烯可以附着在红细胞上，最终导致DNA损伤。

The agency is also urging people to eat fewer high-calorie foods like potato chips, French fries and cookies -- all of which have acrylamides.

该机构还吁人们少吃高热量如薯片、薯条和饼干等有丙烯的食品。

Scientists have launched other studies to better understand how acrylamide forms in some overcooked foods and how cooking traditions may affect people.

为更好地理解丙烯在过度烹饪的食物中产生的原理及烹饪习惯对人健康的影响，科学家们还进行了其他研究。

Blanching is heating food briefly in water. This will remove the potato skin and half the sugar, resulting in lower levels of acrylamide.

焯就是将食物快速地放入沸水中加热。样可以去除马铃薯表皮和半的糖分，丙烯的量也将大大减少。

Some studies also show that cooking with an air fryer reduces the formation of harmful compounds, such as the carcinogen acrylamide.

些研究还表明， 用空气炸锅烹饪可以减少有害化合物的形成， 例如致癌物质丙烯。

But all of that is when acrylamide is used as a sealant, not when it's a byproduct of toasting your bread for too long.

但所有些情况都是丙烯用作密封剂的结果，不是烤焦面包上的副产物。

Researchers found that eating three small bags or even handfuls of chips every day for seven days increases acrylamide levels in your body by 46%.

研究人员发现，连续七天每天吃三小袋或者每天把薯片会使你内的丙烯水平提高 46%。

The Food Standards Authority(FSA )has issued a public warning about the risks of a compound called acrylamide that forms in some foods cooked at high temperatures.

英国食品标准局(FSA)发布了项公开警告：某些以高温烹制的食物中存在种叫作丙烯的化合物，它会带来风险。

Because if french fries are going to kill you, it's probably not the acrylamide… and also, research shows that those things are definitely good for you.

因为即使炸薯条损害了你的健康，很有可能也不是因为丙烯… … 此外，研究表明做些事绝对有助于健康。

In 2015, a meta-analysis of 32 studies was also unable to find any causal link between acrylamide and an increased risk for a variety of cancers… including pancreatic.

在2015年，针对32项研究的综合分析都没发现丙烯与多种癌症（包括胰腺癌）风险增加之间存在任何因果关系。

In many cases, the reaction is similar to, but distinct from, the Maillard reaction between amino acids and sugars, which also causes food to brown during cooking.

很多时候，个反应类似于美拉德反应，氨基酸和糖在烹饪过程时也会让食物变成棕色，但丙烯与美拉德的产物有区别。
