Among them, monitoring programs were conducted in many countries worldwide by official bodies as well as by the food industry. National and international bodies set up monitoring databases. In 2003, both the European Commission and the World Health Organization posted calls for data and placed their spreadsheets for the submission of data on the Web. The goal of the databases is to collect data for a reliable estimation of the exposure of consumers to acrylamide via the food chain. This paper describes the assessment of the data quality and outlines the composition of the data ain the 2 databases, to date. }, title = {Overview of Acrylamide Monitoring Database}, type = {}, url = {}, volume = {88}, number = {}, journal = {JOURNAL OF AOAC INTERNATIONAL}, pages = {246-249}, issn = {}, publisher = {AOAC INTERNATIONAL}, doi = {} }
