N-Nitrososarcosine ethyl ester (N-NSE) is a potent mutagen and carcinogen that has been extensively studied for its toxic effects. It is a direct-acting alkylating agent that reacts with DNA to form adducts, leading to mutations and tumor formation. N-NSE is formed as a by-product of the nitrosation of sarcosine ethyl ester, which can occur in food processing, particularly in the presence of nitrite. N-NSE has been detected in various food products, such as cured meats, and its presence is considered a public health concern. The study of N-NSE is important for understanding its carcinogenic potential and for developing strategies to minimize its formation in food products. Research on N-NSE has focused on its mechanism of action, its mutagenic and carcinogenic effects, and its occurrence in food.'
