시판 식육제품 중 N-Nitrosamine 의 생성 - 제 1 보 . 시판햄 및 소시지 중 N-Nitrosamine 의 검출

This experiment was conducted to study occurrence of N-nitrosamine (NA) and its precursors such as nitrate and nitrite. For the experimental samples, 26 kinds of commercial hams and 30 kinds of sausages produced in Korea were purchased. The nitrate and nitrite were positive in all of the collected samples; nitrate levels were by average 4.4-9.2 mg/kg and nitrite ones were by average 1.3-3.6 mg/kg. The contents of nitrate and nitrite were detected higher in sausage than in ham. Especially, nitrate contents were contained higher in lyoner sausage prepared with the mixture of meat and fish, while nitrite contents were contained higher in the meat only mixture. N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) among the analyzed 7 kinds of NA was detected only in ham and sausage; its contents were outstanding in lyoner sausage which was prepared with only meat and pork sausage, and then regular ham was the next one in its order, but its contants were detected by average $lt;0.5 ug/kg in press hams added vegetable.
