Nitrates and Nitrites in Food and Water
Nitrate and nitrite are potentially dangerous substances which can have a detrimental effect on the ecological balance of rivers and lakes, and can cause harm to human health. This book puts into context the magnitude and complexity of the problems caused by nitrate and nitrite, and provides advice and information on ways to combat it.
Nitrates and Nitrites in Food and Water
From the Introduction With regard to nitrate and nitrite, the perceived hazards are to the ecological balance in rivers and lakes, and to human health. Increased nitrate levels in river water lead to increased growth of algae and consequent decrease in the level of biologically available oxygen (BAO). In extreme forms, the algae form unsightly blooms on the water surface, and the BAO level falls below that necessary to support fish and other animal life. At this extreme, there is little dispute that efforts should be made to restore the ecological balance, and this is best achieved by reversing the increase in nitrate concentration that caused the problem. The health hazards are less clear, ...

Nitrates and Nitrites in Food and Water
Nitrate and nitrite are potentially dangerous substances which can have a detrimental effect on the ecological balance of rivers and lakes, and cause harm to human health. EC legislation to determine acceptable levels of nitrate and nitrite in food and water means that all water and food companies will need to be fully aware of the ramifications. These two factors have prompted this book, which puts into context the magnitude and complexity of the problems caused by nitrate and nitrite, and provides advice and information on ways to combat it.
Nitrite and Nitrate in Human Health and Disease
This fully revised and updated new edition provides a comprehensive look at nitrite and nitrate and their effect on human health and disease. The first section describes the biochemical analysis of nitrite and nitrate and its role in human physiology. The book then shifts to sources of human exposure of nitrite and nitrate, including environmental and dietary. Finally, the last section discusses nitric oxide-based therapeutics and how nitrite and nitrate biochemistry can be safely harnessed to improve human health. Each chapter provides a balanced, evidence-based view and heavily cites the most recent published literature. They follow a strict chapter format which includes keywords, key poin...
Health Hazards of Nitrite Inhalants
This monograph is based upon papers and discussion from a technical review on the extent of use and health hazards of nitrate inhalents that took place on March 31, 1987, in Rockville, MD. The meeting was sponsored by the Office of Science and the Division of Clinical Research, National Institute on Drug Abuse.
