The ADIs established by the SCF (1997) and by JECFA (2002) for nitrite were 0–0.06 and 0–0.07 mg/kg bw per day, respectively. The available information did not indicate in vivo genotoxic potential for sodium and potassium nitrite. Overall, an ADI for nitrite per se could be derived from the available repeated dose toxicity studies in animals, also considering the negative carcinogenicity results. The Panel concluded that an increased methaemoglobin level, observed in human and animals, was a relevant effect for the derivation of the ADI. The Panel, using a BMD approach, derived an ADI of 0.07 mg nitrite ion/kg bw per day. The exposure to nitrite resulting from its use as food additive did not exceed this ADI for the general population, except for a slight exceedance in children at the highest percentile. The Panel assessed the endogenous formation of nitrosamines from nitrites based on the theoretical calculation of the NDMA produced upon ingestion of nitrites at the ADI and estimated a MoE > 10,000. The Panel estimated the MoE to exogenous nitrosamines in meat products to be < 10,000 in all age groups at high level exposure. Based on the results of a systematic review, it was not possible to clearly discern nitrosamines produced from the nitrite added at the authorised levels, from those found in the food matrix without addition of external nitrite. In epidemiological studies there was some evidence to link (i) dietary nitrite and gastric cancers and (ii) the combination of nitrite plus nitrate from processed meat and colorectal cancers. There was evidence to link preformed NDMA and colorectal cancers. © 2017 European Food Safety Authority. EFSA Journal published by John Wiley and Sons Ltd on behalf of European Food Safety Authority.

Sodium (E 250) and potassium (E 249) nitrites are authorised as food additives in the European Union (EU) according to Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 on food additives and they were previously evaluated by the EU Scientific Committee for Food (SCF), the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). The acceptable daily intake (ADIs) for sodium and potassium nitrite (expressed as nitrite ion) established by the SCF (1997) and by JECFA (2002, 1996) were 0–0.06 and 0–0.07 mg/kg body weight (bw) per day, respectively. The Panel was not provided with a newly submitted dossier and based its evaluation on previous evaluations and reviews, additional literature that became available since then and the data provided following public calls for data. Not all original studies on which previous evaluations were based were available for re-evaluation by the Panel. Sodium and potassium salts of nitrite are commonly used in curing mixtures to develop and fix the colour of meat, to inhibit microbial growth and/or to develop characteristic flavours (IARC, 2010; Sindelar and Milkowski, 2012). Specific purity criteria on sodium and potassium nitrites are defined in Commission Regulation (EU) No 231/2012. The studies of toxicokinetics of sodium nitrite in animals and humans showed that the substance was absorbed to a great extent (nearly 100%) and did not undergo first pass metabolism (Hunault et al., 2009). In humans, the volume of distribution was larger than the body water indicating that nitrites were distributed at higher concentrations in some tissues compared with the blood. Nearly, all of nitrite was converted to nitrate, which then was excreted in the urine. Further metabolites of nitrite were nitric oxide (NO) and reactive oxygen species which were also formed during the conversion of nitrite to minor metabolites. Small amounts of nitrite were found in the urine (0.02% of the administered dose). The most important source of nitrite raised from the consumption of food and water containing nitrate and the conversion of nitrate to nitrite in saliva by oral nitrate-reducing bacteria (Witter and Balish, 1979b; JECFA, 2003a). This conversion of nitrate to nitrite was estimated to range from 5% to 36% (Wagner et al., 1983; Bartholomew and Hill, 1984; Spiegelhalder et al., 1976; Bos et al., 1988; Granli et al., 1989; Shapiro et al., 1991; Jin et al., 2013; Bondonno et al., 2015; Woessner et al., 2016; Hohensin et al., 2016; Montenegro et al., 2017). The available studies provided clear evidence of the genotoxic activity of sodium and potassium nitrite in vitro, with positive results in tests for gene mutations in bacteria and in tests for the induction of structural chromosomal aberrations, gene mutations, aneuploidy and cell transformation in mammalian cells. In vivo negative results were obtained in well-performed micronucleus assays in mice and rats, with measurable systemic exposure, after acute and subchronic administration of sodium nitrite. Limited negative data were also available at the site of contact. Overall, the Panel concluded that the available information did not indicate an in vivo genotoxic potential for sodium and potassium nitrite, and thus did not preclude the possibility to establish a health-based guidance value (ADI). Acute toxicity effects of sodium and potassium nitrite included relaxation of smooth muscle, vasodilation, and consequently, lowering of blood pressure, and methaemoglobinaemia. The oral LD50 in experimental animals was in the range of 100–220 mg/kg bw. In humans, oral lethal nitrite doses have been reported to be in the same order of magnitude as in animals, however in a wider range, likely due to wide variabilities in individual sensitivity (Health Canada, 2013). Short-term, subchronic and chronic toxicity studies in rats and mice using sodium and potassium nitrite primarily confirmed that the main observed effect is the formation of methaemoglobin. Methaemoglobin prevents normal oxygen delivery to the tissues, thus high concentrations of methaemoglobin can cause tissue hypoxia (Mensinga et al., 2003). The normal background concentration of methaemoglobin is 1–3% of total blood haemoglobin concentration (Goldsmith et al., 1976).

  • Toxicological Profile for Nitrate and Nitrite
    NITRATE AND NITRITE 9 2. RELEVANCE TO PUBLIC HEALTH 2.1 BACKGROUND AND ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURES TO NITRATE AND NITRITE IN THE UNITED STATES Nitrate and nitrite can be organic or inorganic chemicals depending on their chemical structures. This profile pertains to inorganic nitrate and nitrite, specifically the nitrate anion and the nitrite anion. Nitrate and nitrite occur naturally in the environment as part of the nitrogen cycle, and are produced both endogenously and exogenously. Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria convert ammonia into nitrite; nitrite- oxidizing bacteria convert nitrite into nitrate in aerobic environments. This two-stage process is known as nitrification. Main sources of ammonia in the environment are decaying organic matter and human and animal wastes. Nitrification, atmospheric fixation, and nitrogen fertilizers contribute to nitrite and nitrate concentrations in the environment. In nature, salts of nitrate and nitrite completely dissociate and these anions typically exist as ionic species. In the environment, nitrite is readily oxidized to nitrate. Nitrate is generally stable in the environment; however, it may be reduced through biotic (living systems; plants, microbes, etc.) processes to nitrite under anerobic conditions. Nitrate and nitrite are ubiquitous in the environment and people are exposed to them primarily through the ingestion of food and drinking water. Significant uptake of nitrate and nitrite occurs in all varieties of plants; internal storage of nitrate (rather than metabolic conversion to ammonium and amino acids) can occur in some plants, especially leafy vegetables such as lettuce and spinach. Vegetables account for about 80% of the nitrate in a typical human diet. Nitrate and nitrite are also produced in the body as part of the natural nitrate-nitrite-nitric oxide cycle.

  • Prohibited and Restricted Chemical List
    School Emergency Response Plan and Management Guide Prohibited and Restricted Chemical List PROHIBITED AND RESTRICTED CHEMICAL LIST Introduction After incidents of laboratory chemical contamination at several schools, DCPS, The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and DC Fire and Emergency Management Services developed an aggressive program for chemical control to eliminate student and staff exposure to potential hazardous chemicals. Based upon this program, all principals are required to conduct a complete yearly inventory of all chemicals located at each school building to identify for the removal and disposal of any prohibited/banned chemicals. Prohibited chemicals are those that pose an inherent, immediate, and potentially life- threatening risk, injury, or impairment due to toxicity or other chemical properties to students, staff, or other occupants of the school. These chemicals are prohibited from use and/or storage at the school, and the school is prohibited from purchasing or accepting donations of such chemicals. Restricted chemicals are chemicals that are restricted by use and/or quantities. If restricted chemicals are present at the school, each storage location must be addressed in the school's written emergency plan. Also, plan maps must clearly denote the storage locations of these chemicals. Restricted chemicals—demonstration use only are a subclass in the Restricted chemicals list that are limited to instructor demonstration. Students may not participate in handling or preparation of restricted chemicals as part of a demonstration. If Restricted chemicals—demonstration use only are present at the school, each storage location must be addressed in the school's written emergency plan.
