Nitrite and nitrate in meat processing: Functions and alternatives
Meat and meat products are important foods in the human diet, but there are concerns about their quality and safety. The discovery of carcinogenic and genotoxic N-nitroso compounds (NOCs) in processed meat products has had serious negative impacts on the

Reducing Effects of Whey Protein Hydrolysate on Coloration of Cured Sausages
Curing produces a characteristic pink color during meat processing through the production of nitrosyl myoglobin (NOMb), which requires nitric oxide (NO).
