Nitrate and nitrite concentrations in rabbit saliva Comparison with rat saliva.

Abstract

The purpose of this work was to investigate the interest of rabbits for studying pharmacology and toxicology of dietary nitrate. Twenty-one females were given 1, 300 and 600mg/l nitrate in drinking water for 11 weeks. Saliva and blood were analysed for nitrate/nitrite. There is a linear relationship between the amounts of nitrate ingested and amount of nitrate in saliva, contrary to what is observed in rats. However, salivary nitrite concentrations remain low, and nitrate reductase activity in the oral cavity of the rabbit seems very weak.
