Translation examples
For centuries, it was common practice to cure meats and sausages with large quantities of nitrite salts.
Jahrhundertelang war es daher Brauch, Fleisch- und Wurstwaren zur Konservierung mit viel Nitritsalzen zu pökeln.
Use of nitrites for food preservation has been highly regulated since the 1980s, due to concerns about possible negative effects on human health. In the United States, sausage and cold meat products must contain no more than 156 parts per million of nitrite salt, approximately one-fifth of the level allowed twenty-five years ago. Rates of stomach cancer have fallen considerably since these regulations were introduced.
Im Jahr 1980 schließlich wurde die Verwendung von Nitrit wegen eventueller gesundheitlicher Risiken stark eingeschränkt. Wurstwaren enthalten nun nicht mehr als 100 Milligramm (ein tausendstel Gramm) Nitritsalz pro Kilogramm Fleisch. Seither erkranken auch sehr viel weniger Menschen an Magenkrebs.
