Nitrites: Salts of nitrous acid or compounds containing the group NO2-. The inorganic nitrites of the type MNO2 (where M=metal) are all insoluble, except the alkali nitrites. The organic nitrites may be isomeric, but not identical with the corresponding nitro compounds. (Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed)

Diseases in Twins: Disorders affecting TWINS, one or both, at any age.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The administration of "sweet spirits of nitre" (4% ethyl nitrite CH3CH2ONO in 70% ethyl alcohol) was followed by acute methemoglobinemia and severe anoxic metabolic acidosis in infant twins, Methylene blue administration reversed methemoglobinemia in both, but one twin died from the consequences of hypoxemia."3.65Sudden death in an infant from methemoglobinemia after administration of "sweet spirits of nitre". ( Baehner, RL; Chilcote, RR; Williams, B; Wolff, LJ, 1977)
