The inhibitory effects of amino acids and their combinations on the formation of heterocyclic amines were investigated in this study. The great potential in the inhibition of HAs was observed in amino acid combinations compared with that of single agents. At a mass ratio of 1:1, a His-Pro combination achieved a maximum inhibitory rate of 80 %, and the total HAs content decreased to 4.70 +/- 0.18 ng/g relative to the control (24.49 +/- 2.18 ng/g). However, the inhibitory rate of triple combinations showed no obvious increase compared with the binary combinations. Benzaldehyde, phenylacetaldehyde, methylglyoxal, and glyoxal were positively correlated with HAs formation, and His-Pro combination (1:4) led to a significant reduction of benzaldehyde and phenylacetaldehyde at scavenging rates of 79 % and 92 %. Thus, the synergistic inhibition was achieved by simultaneously scavenging these aldehyde intermediates, and other inhibitory target, such as competition with precursors and elimination of final products can serve as supporting factors. These results provide a new perspective for approaches to enhance the suppression of HAs and control the formation of flavor compounds.
