The reactions between sodium nitrite and the polyamines spermidine and spermine were investigated. When reacted at 80°C for 1 hr at pH 3.5 with a 1:3 molar ratio of amine groups to sodium nitrite, five volatile nitrosamines were identified as products in the nitrosation of spermidine. 3HC1, and two...
