Until recently the public water supply to Worksop contained high concentrations of nitrate. An epidemiological study has revealed that, compared with low nitrate control towns, Worksop has an increased death rate from gastric cancer. The possible role of the bacterial production of nitrosamines in the aetiology of these stomach cancer deaths is discussed.
直到最近,沃索普的公共供水还含有高浓度的硝酸盐。一项流行病学研究表明,与硝酸盐含量低的对照城镇相比,沃索普的胃癌死亡率有所上升。文中讨论了细菌产生亚硝胺在这些胃癌死亡病因中的可能作用。
