| dc.description.abstract | Given the increasing amount of exposure of nitrosamines through different products like processed food, rubber products like condoms it is very important to avoid or reduce the amount of nitrosamine exposure. And in this project we test different condom samples with artificial sweat and artificial saliva where the amount of nitrosamines released when treated with artificial sweat is higher than the nitrosamines released when treated with artificial saliva. Condoms are intended for close contact with skin and mucous membranes of the genitalia. The removal of nitrosamines from the condoms does not assure reliability, efficacy and safety of condoms. | en_US |
