Due to the fact that carcinogenic N-nitrosamines have the ability to be synthesized both exogenously and endogenously from the so-called precursors (nitrites, nitrates, secondary amines), a study was carried out of drinking and waste water, as well as some products in samples taken in a number of areas of the Upper Volga basin. The amount of nitrites that a person can get from drinking water and food containing precursors of N-nitrosamines has been calculated.
