Studiul nivelului de nitraţi/nitriţi in produsele lactate din judeţul Braşov | [Study of the level of nitrates/nitrites in milk products from Braşov county]

Abstract

Although animals can ingest large amounts of nitrates in feed and water, however, nitrate and nitrite content of meat and eggs is very low. This is explained by the fact that nitrates are absorbed inside the small intestine easily pass into the bloodstream and are excreted through the kidneys. If herbivorous ruminant animals, most of the existing nitrates in feed are used as feedstock for nitrogenous organic substances by organisms that inhabit their stomachs. A small amount of nitrates can secrete the milk. In general, concentration does not exceed 40-50 mg/liter.
