Much to the surprise of the analysts, all of them had measurable amounts of acrylamide in their blood. While smokers were expected to have some acrylamide in their bodies, because it is a component of cigarette smoke, non-smokers should not have had any, and yet there it was. Blood samples were collected from more people, including those from other countries, and they too had this dangerous chemical circulating around their bodies.
