Transformation of Nitrite and Nitric Oxide Produced by Oral Bacteria to Reactive Nitrogen Oxide Species in the Oral Cavity

Improving wastewater management using free nitrous acid (FNA)

“…The decomposed products of FNA, and a variety of other reactive nitrogen intermediates (RNIs) that derive from their interactions with various organics in the presence of oxygen, such as peroxynitrite (ONOO -), NO-derived metal nitrosyl complexes, and S-nitrosothiols (RSNO) could have cytotoxic properties to bacterial cells (Duncan et al 1995, Dykhuizen et al 1996, Fang 1997, Jiang et al 2011a, Klebanoff 1993, Phillips et al 2004, Yoon et al 2006) (Takahama and Hirota 2012), as will be discussed in details in section 2.3.…”
