Accurate quantification of dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) has been a challenge due to the cumulative analytical errors in the conventional method via subtracting dissolved inorganic nitrogen species (DIN) from total dissolved nitrogen (TDN). Size exclusion chromatography coupled with an organic nitrogen detector (SEC-OND) has been developed as a ...

Sodium nitrite has several industrial applications however its accidental or intentional ingestion has been associated with severe toxicity and death. We present a series of 20 cases over 2 years in which evidence of sodium nitrite ingestion was found at the scene and supported by biochemical analysis of post-mortem blood nitrite and nitrate levels...

NO2- is commonly found in foods and the environment, and excessive intake of NO2- poses serious hazards to human health. Thus, rapid and accurate assay of NO2- is of considerable significance. Traditional instrumental approaches for detection of NO2- faced with limitations of expensive instruments and complicated operations. Current gold standards ...

Dietary nitrate ingestion extends endurance capacity, but data supporting endurance time-trial performance are unclear. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the evidence for dietary nitrate supplementation to improve high-intensity endurance time-trial performance over 5-30 min on the premise that nitrate may alleviate peripheral fati...

In this work, a colorimetric analysis of adulterated tuna samples is carried out using both a spectroradiometer and a smartphone as capture devices. Yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) slices were treated with nitrate and nitrite salts, as well as with two different vegetable extracts (beetroot and radish), and the resulting NO2- and NO3- concentrat...

N-Acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) is an endogenous cysteine metabolite. The drug is widely used in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and as antidote in acetaminophen (paracetamol) intoxication. Currently, the utility of NAC is investigated in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), which is generally considered associated with inflammation and oxidative stre...

Control and n-3 PUFA enriched raw material was used to manufacture clean label and conventional salami; the former were added with a phytocomplex having iron chelating, DPPH, and FRAP activity, obtained from olive vegetation water, oregano, green tea and blueberry leaves, and with acerola powder. Salami were dried at 3 ± 1 °C until an established d...

In blood, the majority of endothelial nitric oxide (NO) is scavenged by oxyhemoglobin, forming nitrate while a small part reacts with dissolved oxygen to nitrite; another fraction may bind to deoxyhemoglobin to generate nitrosylhemoglobin (HbNO) and/or react with a free cysteine to form a nitrosothiol. Circulating nitrite concentrations in healthy ...

Nitrite, as a part of nitrogen cycle, is one of the most common toxic compounds in aquatic ecosystems. Since skeletal development is an essential process during amphibian metamorphosis, exposure of larval amphibians to nitrite might disrupt skeletal development. To evaluate whether nitrite affects skeletal development of amphibian larvae, Bufo garg...

Statements that naturally cured meat products may contain lower residual nitrite levels compared to classical variants led to a closer examination of emulsion-type sausage products in this study, where the input of nitrate from plant extracts (red beet and Swiss chard) was adjusted to typical input levels of nitrite from nitrite curing salt (0.5% N...
