Sodium nitrite (NaNO2) is a white or slightly yellowish crystalline powder that is widely used as a food preservative and color fixative, particularly in cured meats like bacon and hot dogs. It inhibits the growth of bacteria, especially Clostridium botulinum, which causes botulism. It also contributes to the characteristic pink color and flavor of cured meats. Beyond food, sodium nitrite is used in pharmaceuticals, as a corrosion inhibitor, and as an antidote for cyanide poisoning
