Air-water and ether-water distribution of N-nitroso compounds: implications for laboratory safety, analytic methodology, and carcinogenicity for the rat esophagus, nose, and liver.
The air-water distribution ratio K1, ether-water distribution ratio K2, and solubility in water were measured for 17 nitrosamines, 3 nitrosamides, and 1 nitrosocyanamide. For K1, air was analysed… Expand
