CONCENTRACIÓN DE NITRATOS EN DOS TIPOS COMERCIALES DE LECHUGA (Lactuca sativa L.) CULTIVADAS CON DISTINTAS FUENTES NITROGENADAS

Abstract: RESUMENLos nitratos (NO 3 -) ingeridos por el hombre pueden convertirse a nitritos (NO 2 -) formando metahemoglobina y nitrosaminas carcinogénicas. La lechuga se encuentra entre las hortalizas con mayor capacidad de acumulación de nitratos. El objetivo del estudio fue evaluar la respuesta del cultivo de lechuga a dosis crecientes de nitrógeno aplicado como urea y al agregado de lombricompuesto, sobre la concentración de nitratos en dos tipos comerciales (hoja suelta y mantecosa). En un ensayo se incorporó abon… Show more

“…A similar effect occurs in plants nurtured with high amounts of N: the concentration of this ion in the sap tends to be higher. However, Ollúa et al (2016) point out that applying 75 kg doses of N ha 1 to butterhead lettuce reduces the NO 3 concentration in the sap. This behavior is possibly the result of a dilution effect, since the plants obtained a higher biomass.…”

“…The accumulation of NO 3  in plants depends on the amount of N applied (Liu et al, 2014) and the size of the biomass of the plants. Ollúa et al (2016) pointed out that as the N dose increases, the concentration of NO 3  in the loose-leaf lettuce also tends to increase. These findings match the results found in this research for the plants that were developed in the soil to which alfalfa had been added.…”

“…However, in both seasons, it was found that the higher the N rate, the higher the nitrate content in the arugula leaves (Figure 3). Nitrate content in arugula is an attribute that may compromise the quality of the vegetables, since, according to Maynard et al (1976), Khan et al (2013) and Ollúa, Logegaray and Chiesa (2016), that this compound is associated with the possibility of formation of carcinogenic and mutagenic compounds in the human organism.…”

“…When the absorption by the plant is greater than actual demand, characterising the excess, the nutrient is stored as nitrate (NURZYŃSKA-WIERDAK, 2009). Nitrate is not harmful to man, but under potentiating conditions present in the human organism, nitrate can combine with amines, and producing nitrosamines that are mutagenic and carcinogenic, or possibly achieving the bloodstream and cause methaemoglobinaemia (KHAN et al, 2013;OLLÚA;LOGEGARAY;CHIESA, 2016).…”

“…Quanto à adubação, o nitrogênio (N) é para a maioria das culturas o principal nutriente que limita o crescimento e a produtividade das lavouras (Chowdhury & Das, 2015), principalmente hortaliças, as quais apresentam relativamente rápido desenvolvimento (ciclo curto) e produção elevada. (Ollúa et al, 2016).…”
