+ UTI (urinary tract infection)
Positive nitrite in a urine test generally indicates the presence of bacteria that convert nitrates to nitrites, suggesting a possible urinary tract infection. This finding is often confirmed with additional tests or clinical evaluation to determine the specific cause of the positive result.
Nitrite is a polyatomic ion with an overall charge of -1. The formula for nitrite is NO2-.
Lead I nitrite= PbNO2 Lead II nitrite= Pb(NO2)2 Lead III nitrite= Pb(NO2)3 Lead IV nitrite= Pb(NO2)4
Amyl nitrite is not typically included in standard drug tests as it is not a controlled substance. However, it is important to note that amyl nitrite can cause a false positive result for drugs like amyl nitrate, amphetamine, and ecstasy on some drug tests due to chemical similarities.
Nitrite is typically found in its charged form as NO2-.

Sodium nitrite is typically produced by reacting sodium nitrate with nitrous acid under acidic conditions. This reaction results in the formation of sodium nitrite and water. Sodium nitrite is commonly used in meat curing and preservation processes.
Low amounts of nitrite and high amounts of nitrate in soil results can occur due to the rapid conversion of nitrite to nitrate by soil bacteria. This process is known as nitrification, where nitrite is converted into nitrate as part of the nitrogen cycle. It is common to see low nitrite levels and high nitrate levels in well-drained, aerobic soils.
That's its whole purpose. Note that "true results" does not necessarily mean "results you like". If you're testing positive, there's a reason for it.
No, the blood can't cause this. High levels of nitrite indicate the presence of bacteria (e.g. E. coli) which convert nitrates into nitrites. Therefore high nitrite levels may be a sign of an urinary tract infection (sometimes there are false postive results nevertheless).
Poisoning by nitrite, or nitrate after its conversion to nitrite, results in the inability of hemoglobin to carry oxygen throughout the body. This condition can be seen by the blue color of the skin.

Yes, almost Enterobacteriae are positive for nitrate reduction.
