As acrylamide is considered a carcinogen and neurotoxic, its level in food raises great concern although it still does not exist a legal limit for its concentration in foodstuffs. Acrylamide is a process contaminant, absent in raw foods and only formed during thermal processing due to Maillard reaction among reducing sugars (glucose, fructose) and L-asparagine (Mottram et al., 2002; Stadler et al., 2002). This work focuses on the development of a method for acrylamide determination in dried fruits based on a QuEChERS (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, and Safe) approach for sample preparation (Schenck et al., 2004) and HPLC-ESI-MS-Triple Quadrupole for sample analysis.

Abstract
As acrylamide is considered a carcinogen and neurotoxic, its level in food raises great concern although it still does not exist a legal limit for its concentration in foodstuffs. Acrylamide is a process contaminant, absent in raw foods and only formed during thermal processing due to Maillard reaction among reducing sugars (glucose, fructose) and L-asparagine (Mottram et al., 2002; Stadler et al., 2002). This work focuses on the development of a method for acrylamide determination in dried fruits based on a QuEChERS (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, and Safe) approach for sample preparation (Schenck et al., 2004) and HPLC-ESI-MS-Triple Quadrupole for sample analysis.
