Description
Lithium nitrate is an exogenous inorganic compound with the formula LiNO3 and an average molecular weight of 68.95 g/mol. At room temperature, this substance exists as a solid. Lithium nitrate belongs to the alkali metal nitrates, a subclass of alkali metal oxoanionic compounds within the inorganic compounds. It is further classified as a mixed metal/non-metal compound. Chemically, lithium nitrate functions as an oxidising agent. It has been recorded as being found in or released from electrical and electronic equipment, specifically antennas and adjustable resistors. The compound is associated with two recorded protein targets: hemoglobin subunit beta (HBB) and hemoglobin subunit alpha (HBA1). Nitrite causes the autocatalytic oxidation of oxyhemoglobin to methemoglobin and hydrogen peroxide. This process results in an elevation of methemoglobin levels, a condition known as methemoglobinemia. Because methemoglobin cannot bind oxygen, this condition is characterized by tissue hypoxia.

Toxicity Profile
Toxicity ValuesNot Available
Toxicity / Toxin ClassNot Available
Mechanism of ToxicityNitrate's toxicity is a result of it's conversion to nitrite once in the body. Nitrite causes the autocatalytic oxidation of oxyhemoglobin to hydrogen peroxide and methemoglobin. This elevation of methemoglobin levels is a condition known as methemoglobinemia, and is characterized by tissue hypoxia, as methemoglobin cannot bind oxygen. (1, 4)
Carcinogenicity (IARC Classification)Ingested nitrate or nitrite under conditions that result in endogenous nitrosation is probably carcinogenic to humans (Group 2A). (2)
Minimum Risk LevelNot Available
SymptomsNitrate and nitrite poisoning causes methemoglobinemia. Symptoms include cyanosis, cardiac dysrhythmias and circulatory failure, and progressive central nervous system (CNS) effects. CNS effects can range from mild dizziness and lethargy to coma and convulsions. (3)
TreatmentMethemoglobinemia can be treated with supplemental oxygen and methylene blue 1% solution administered intravenously slowly over five minutes followed by IV flush with normal saline. Methylene blue restores the iron in hemoglobin to its normal (reduced) oxygen-carrying state. (4)
