Contrary to volatile N-nitrosamines, about representatives and mechanism of arrising of non-volatile nitrosamines in brewing industry is known only a little. In the first part of this article are therefore given the basic information about their incidence, mechanism of arrising and method of estimation in beer and other foodstuff.Contrary to volatile N-nitrosamines, about representatives and mechanism of arrising of non-volatile nitrosamines in brewing industry is known only a little.
