Nitraattipitoisuutta
Nitraattipitoisuus refers to the concentration of nitrate (NO3-) in a substance or environment. Nitrate is a naturally occurring compound containing nitrogen and oxygen. In the context of water, high nitraattipitoisuus can be a concern for environmental and human health. Sources of nitrate in water bodies include agricultural runoff containing fertilizers, human and animal waste, and natural decomposition processes.
Elevated nitraattipitoisuus in drinking water can pose risks, particularly to infants, leading to a condition known
