title: [Toxicity study for acrylamide].
abstract: Acrylamide is one of the most important chemical materials, which has been widely used in industry. It is one kind of many contaminants in occupational environments. However, it has been reported that starchy foods cooked at high temperature contain a certain amount of acrylamide.
