Protein Pyrolysis

Pyrolysis is an incomplete burning reaction. It is produced due to an extensive heating. This compound are produced due to ciclization of tryptophan and glutamine resulting in production of very toxic CARBOLINES.

 Produce imidazole quinolones, which are heterocyclic amines, which are mutagenic substances, meaning that they can change the genetic material of a cell, so they can change a cell into a cancer cell. They all have mutagenic properties. They are also called the hamburger mutagens, produced during grilling of meat due to very high temperatures (more than 100°). To produce it, very high temperatures are needed, usually on surface of grilled meat.
