1. Food Industry: Sodium nitrite is primarily used as a food additive, serving as a preservative and color fixative in processed meats such as bacon, ham, hot dogs, and sausages. It helps prevent bacterial growth, which can cause botulism. Additionally, it contributes to the characteristic pink color and flavor of cured meats.
2. Industrial Applications: Sodium nitrite is utilized in various industrial processes, including metal surface treatment to inhibit corrosion and as a chemical reagent in the synthesis of organic compounds. It is also employed in the production of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and other chemicals.
3. Medicinal Use: In medicine, sodium nitrite has been used in the treatment of cyanide poisoning due to its ability to convert hemoglobin to methemoglobin, which binds cyanide and facilitates its excretion from the body.
