Amine oxide surfactants contaminated with nitrite are treated under acidic conditions with materials such as maleic acid and diethylenetriaminepentaacetate (DTPA) to reduce nitrite levels below 1 ppm. Thus, C.sub.12-13 dimethyl amine is oxidized with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of maleic acid and DTPA to reduce nitrite levels. The resulting nitrite-free amine oxide is employed in various detergent compositions.
