Intracellular Conversion of Environmental Nitrate and Nitrite to Nitric Oxide with Resulting Developmental Toxicity to the Crustacean Daphnia magna

BACKGROUND: Nitrate and nitrite (jointly referred to herein as NO(x)) are ubiquitous environmental contaminants to which aquatic organisms are at particularly high risk of exposure. We tested the hypothesis that NO(x) undergo intracellular conversion to the potent signaling molecule nitric oxide res...
