Abstract:The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of raw materials and processing factors on the levels of N-nitrosamine in surimi products. The contents of nine N-nitrosamines in the raw materials for fish tofu and quantitative changes in these compounds during the processing of fish tofu were determined by gas chromatography (GC), and their correlations with nitrite, thiobarbituric acid reaction substances (TBARs) and volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) were analyzed. The results showed that contents of TVB-N and nitrite in the raw materials were decreased by 7.6 and 0.2 mg/100 g, respectively after processing into fish tofu, and the content of TBARs was increased by 0.8 mg/kg. N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA) (0–3.23 μg/kg) and N-nitrosoethylmethylamine (NMEA) (0–8.62 μg/kg) but not N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) were detected in the raw materials. N-nitrosopiperidine (NPIP) and N-nitrosopyrrolidine (NPYR) were detected at levels of 6.35 and 2.28 μg/kg, respectively in flavor enhancer I + G. The levels of NMEA and NDEA increased with added fat during the chopping process, but decreased significantly after cooking and frying to (17.76 ± 0.50) and (0.10 ± 0.00) μg/kg, respectively, and a small amount of NDMA ((0.15 ± 0.00) μg/kg) was retained after frying. In addition, NDMA and NDEA were positively correlated with frying temperature and TVB-N, and NMEA was positively correlated with TBARs.
