Effects of NaNO2 on VTEC reductions were dependent of level. No
difference in VTEC reductions were obtained between sausages with
100 ppm NaNO2 and corresponding sausages without NaNO2 added to
the batter (not shown). Increased VTEC reductions were obtained at
higher NaNO2 levels (300 and 500 ppm) compared to 100 ppm
containing sausages.
