title: [The effect of low concentrations of sodium nitrites and nitrates on respiration and oxidative phosphorylation in rat liver mitochondria].
abstract: Nitrite incubation in mitochondria and nitrate intoxication of rats have been studied for their effect on aerobic energetic processes in the liver. Sodium nitrite in concentration of 2 mg/l causes an inhibition of ADP-stimulated respiration and provides uncoupling processes of oxidative phosphorylation and respiration in mitochondria, when adding succinate as a substrate. Low doses of nitrate in vivo promote oxygen economization in mitochondria. Intoxication of rats with nitrate in a dose of 50 mg/l for 30 days induces a decrease of the respiration rate after ADP-phosphorylation and an increase of the coefficient of oxidative phosphorylation efficiency (ADP/O). Intraperitoneal administration of adrenalin in a dose of 25 micrograms/100 g to rats after 30-day nitrate intoxication in a concentration of 10 mg/l induces no typical increase of ADP-stimulated respiration and rate of oxidative phosphorylation and succinate oxidation.
