nitrate: 1. an ion with the formula NO3. 2. a chemical compound containing the nitrate ion, e.g., sodium nitrate. 3. a natural constituent of plants. Beets, cabbage, cauliflower, and broccoli can contain up to 1mg/kg. Nitrates are a source of nitrogen for plants, essential for their growth and development.
