Creator:

Hotchkiss, Joseph H.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to characterize the nonvolatile, water soluble, bis(hydroxyalkyl)N-nitrosamines produced from the reaction of spermidine and nitrite. The biologically occurring polyamine spermidine was reacted with nitrite in the presence of acid. The reaction products were isolated and converted to trimethylsilyl (TMS) derivatives. The derivatized products were...
