ABSTRACT
The massive consumption of fritters has been increasing. The National Survey of Income
and Family Expenditures for 2009-2010 showed that a third of Guatemalans buy food outside the
home. The main objective of this study is to identification, whether sales of fried chicken in the
urban center of Tiquisate, Escuintla use oils suitable for human consumption; using
physicochemical analysis methods such as: acidity index, peroxide index, p-anisidine index and
totox index.
In order to establish the bases of this study, pilot surveys were carried out in the National
Hospital of Tiquisate, Escuintla, where it was possible to identify that the inhabitants consumed
most of them; Fried chicken, fried gizzards and French fries, at least once a week. It was also
observed that the consumption of these foods has been an important factor for the development of
chronic noncommunicable diseases that is scientifically proven according to FAO and WHO.
Two types of analysis were performed; as primary analyzes acidity indexes and peroxide
indexes; and as secondary analyzes p-anisidine index and totox index, verified under the Codex
Alimentarios standards, using the methodologies of the AOCS (American oil Chemists'Society)
with the objective of identifying if the oils are suitable for human consumption according to the
established parameters.
The results of this investigation, it was idicate that 99% of the samples are not suitable
for human consumption. |
