(4) The relation of the ingested potassium nitrate to the nitratesfound to be present in the urine is not clearly understood, thedata showing that ingested potassium nitrate has an inhibitoryaction on the formation of nitrates in the body. In all cases theurinary nitrate was found to be present in larger amounts thanthat ingested except in one case. (5) In no case was it deffinately proven that nitrates are presentin feces. (5) Neither urine nor feces were found to contain nitrites.(7)
