The formation of 3-hydroxy-N-nitrosopyrrolidine from decarboxylation
of 4-hydroxy-N-nitrosoproline was demonstrated in model
heating system designed to simulate the conditions of frying bacon.
The identification of the nitrosamine was achieved by comparison of
its TLC R [subscript f] value, gas chromatographic retention time, and mass
spectral fragmentation pattern with those of...
