| Résumé : |
Volatile nitrosamines are low-molecular-weight compounds formed by the reaction of a secondary, tertiary, or quaternary amine with a nitrosating agent such as nitrous acid, nitrite, or various nitrogen oxides (1). They are of concern because they have been shown to be carcinogenic to labaratory animals even at very low concentrations (2, 3). There is considerable literature concerned with the presence of nitrosamines in foods (4, 5). Airborne nitrosamines have also been reported in a variety of industrial environments (6) as well as urban air (7).
In 1978, during the Air Pollution Control Assoviation's annual meeting, a contractor for the National Institute for Occupational Health and Safety (NIOSH) reported finding a volatile nitrosamine, N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) in the air of tannery (8). While no incidence of human cancer has been attributed to nitrosamines to date, the finding of this compound caused representatives of the tanning industry to request that our laboratory (ERRC) investigate the NIOSH finding and to determine the source of the nitrosamine. The results of this study are reported in this paper. |
