formation of n-nitroso compounds under simulated gastric conditions from kashmir foodstuffs. | several foodstuffs and teas from an area of high esophageal cancer risk in kashmir (india) were studied under simulated gastric conditions with a realistic nitrite concentration for the formation of n-nitroso compounds. n-nitrosodimethylamine (ndma), n-nitrosoproline (npro), n-nitrosothiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid (ntca) and n-nitrosopipecolic acid (npic) were the main products in different foods. significant amounts of ndma were formed from dried fish (20 micrograms/kg), dried and pickled veget ... | 1988 | 3359419 |
