Nitr-Navigator - A comprehensive Nitrate, Nitrite and Nitrosamine Database

Aggregated food nitrate content table (as of Apr 2024)

By Liezhou Zhong (Updated on 11 May 2024)

Introduction

The nitrate table presented here is derived from the comprehensive Nitrate, Nitrite, and Nitrosamine Database (Nitr-Navigator), utilizing global data. Each food item included in this table is sourced from more than two unique data sources (references). Therefore, it's important to note that not all foods within the database are represented here. For a complete list of included foods, please refer to the combined food table.

The Nitr-Navigator allows for the aggregation of data from multiple sources to derive a comprehensive nitrate content for specific food categories. For instance, data from various lettuce cultivars such as "Lettuce", "Lettuce, Butterhead", "Lettuce, Iceberg", "Lettuce, Loose Leaf", and "Lettuce, Romaine" can be combined to obtain a generalized nitrate content for all lettuce varieties.Please CONTACT US to discuss the data extraction and calculation procedures tailored to your specific requirements. Our team has developed a nitrate/nitrite calculator (as Jupyter Notebook, access through team) that can automatically and efficiently assign content values to food records while applying multiple protocols, and a Nitr-Navigator data portal (NitriXplorer) that can filter and visualize data.
