Abstract

Aims: This study aimed to determine influence of post-harvest treatments on PAH's formation in raw cocoa. Study Design: A total of 370 samples were analyzed during 2014 and 2015 cocoa harvesting. Methodology: A method based on a solid-liquid and liquid-liquid extraction followed by an HPLC- Fluorescence assay was optimized and validated for PAHs analysis in cocoa. Results: Whatever the post-harvest treatment, cocoa PAH's contents were under 6.19 ± 0.30.
