Reproduction in the guinea pig as affected by chronic administration of potassium nitrate and potassium nitrite.
Toxicosis produced by nitrates and related compounds is a problem in man and in domestic animals. The most prominent effect of nitrate and nitrite is the conversion of hemoglobin to methemoglobin. Nitrate must be reduced to nitrite before excessive -methemoglobinemia occurs. Nitrites are therefore several times more toxic than nitrates. -· Pharmacologically, KN03 had been used as a diuretic, an...
متن کاملA Review of Nitrate and Nitrite Toxicity in Foods
Agricultural advancement and population growth have prompted increases in food supplies, and higher crop yields have been made possible through the application of fertilizers. Large quantities of livestock and poultry on farms, along with the accumulation of biomass and agricultural residues, can cause contamination of ground water resources and other water sanitation concerns in both developin...
متن کاملDifferential expression of nitrate reductase in response to potassium and sodium nitrate: real- time PCR analysis
Cucurbita pepo L. plants were grown in plastic pots with 2 kg washed sand per pot at three levels of potassium and sodium nitrate supplies to investigate the effects of nitrate supply on nitrate reductase activity and nitrate reductase expression in the leaves of the plants. Results demonstrated that starvation leads to decrease nitrate reductase activity and nitrate reductase expression. Suppl...
متن کاملSusceptibility of Clostridium difficile to the food preservatives sodium nitrite, sodium nitrate and sodium metabisulphite.
Clostridium difficile is an important enteric pathogen of humans and food animals. Recently it has been isolated from retail foods with prevalences up to 42%, prompting concern that contaminated foods may be one of the reasons for increased community-acquired C. difficile infection (CA-CDI). A number of studies have examined the prevalence of C. difficile in raw meats and fresh vegetables; howe...
متن کاملL-Arginine Supplementation Influenced Nitrite but Not Nitrate and Total Nitrite in Rabbit Model of Hypercholesterolemia
Background: The assessment of altered nitric oxide (NO) availability is of potentially important diagnostic and prognostic significance. The present study is aimed to investigate the effect of L-arginine (as a natural NO donor) supplementation on NO metabolite in a rabbit model of hypercholesterolemia to find a reliable marker for endothelial NO production. Methods: White male rabbits (n = 30)...
