The study aimed to evaluate the effects of olive cultivar (cvs. Manzanilla Cacereña and Hojiblanca) and the sterilization intensity/time-period (F0 of 10–25 min at 121 ± 3 °C) on the formation of acrylamide in table olives and brine. Olive cultivar and thermal sterilization had a significant impact on the amount of acrylamide produced (varying from 228 ± 94 to 286 ± 110 and 336 ± 126 to 373 ± 159 ng g−1, for table olives and brine, respectively, determined by HPLC-MS-QQQ). Moreover, for both cultivars, linear positive relationships (0.931 ≤ R2 ≤ 0.994) were found between the acrylamide concentration in olives and respective brine solutions, allowing to foresee a non-destructive indirect methodology for quantifying acrylamide in table olives. Finally, a potentiometric E-tongue was used to quantify acrylamide in both matrices. The lipid sensor membranes comprised on the sensor device showed potentiometric semi-logarithmic responses (0.962 ≤ R2 ≤ 0.999) towards the acrylamide concentration for aqueous standard solutions, permitting the establishment of accurate multiple linear predictive models for the quantification of acrylamide in olives and brine solutions (repeated Kfold- CV: 0.97 ± 0.03 ≤ R2 ≤ 0.99 ± 0.01; 12 ± 8 ≤ RMSE ≤ 28 ± 14 ng g−1) for both olive cultivars. Etongue could be used as non-destructive indirect detection method of acrylamide, based on the brine solution evaluation, and so, a complementary analytical tool to the conventional chromatographic analysis.
