Nitrosamine is the derived from nitrate and it seems
as one of the factors and causes of gastrointestinal
cancer in adults and methemoglobinemia (blue baby
syndrome). Eighty percent of nitrate enters to the body through vegetables and
fruits; so in this study, nitrate concentration in available vegetables and fruits in
Egypt was determined and compared with standard limit. Nitrate reading was done
using HPLC, and Excel was used to draw diagrams and statistical calculations.
Daily intake estimates were based on a national food consumption and
nitric/nitrate content in various foodstuffs. The mean intake of nitrite from Squash
was exceeded the ADI among 110 vegetable commodity, with EDI value of
o.1mg/kg for children body weight and Fresh strawberry with EDI value of 3.6 for
adult body weight. And the water commodity with high and significant EDI for both
nitrate and nitrite.
