Survey of finfish and shellfish for volatile N-nitrosamines.
A variety of finfish and shellfish obtained on the local retail market were analyzed for 14 volatile N-nitrosamines by using a gas-liquid chromatographic method demonstrated to be sensitive to 10 ppb (microng/kg). A total of 78 samples (fresh, frozen, and canned), representing 26 varieties of fish, were analyzed. No nitrosamines were found.
