Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are widespread contaminants representing an important group of mutagens and carcinogens that have been detected in various foods – cereals, oils, fats, smoked meat and fish products. The contents of the PAH4 were analyzed from traditionally smoked fish and meat products using method of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The highest mean content of PAH4 was detected in canned smoked sprats (50.43 μg/kg). The analyzed smoked meat products showed mean content of PAH4 – 2.6 μg/kg and smoked fish products without smoked sprats mean content of PAH4 – 5.4 μg/kg. The results of our research confirms that maximum permissible limit of PAH4 for canned smoked sprats shall be establish higher in comparison with other smoked fish products.
