  • Further assuming that the anion of such inorganic zinc compounds can be regarded as "inert" with regard to repeated dose toxicity, the subsequent discussion focuses on the zinc cation. (europa.eu)
  • Thus, the assessment of the health risk of nitrate to humans should encompass the toxicity of both nitrite and N-nitroso compounds, and the animal species used for safety evaluation should be closely related to humans with respect to the toxicokinetics of nitrate and the conversion of nitrate to nitrite.
