#If the dry mixture which had nullification was later cooked together it becomes forbidden.<ref>The Rashba (Torat HaBayit 17a, responsa 1:272) holds that once the mixture is cooked together it is forbidden even though it is a mixture of one type since once it is cooked together the entire mixture shares the taste of the forbidden food. This is also the opinion of the Ran (Chullin 36a s.v. garsinan). The Rosh (Chullin 7:37) and Smak (Siman 214) argue that it is permitted even if it was cooked together. Shulchan Aruch YD 109:2 rules like the Rashba, while the Rama adds that in a case of a major loss one may rely on the Rosh.</ref>

#When a mixture is permissible because of nullification one person may eat the entire mixture at different intervals and not all at once. It is preferable for one Jew not to eat the entire mixture but rather leave one piece and let another person eat it. It is even more meritorious to be strict to discard one piece or to give it to a non-Jew. <ref>S”A YD 109:1, The Laws of Kashrus (Rabbi Binyamin Forst; pg 54-6) </ref>

#Certain prohibited foods require a higher ratio for nullification. For example, Trumah, [[Challah]], and Bikkurim require a 1 (forbidden) to 100 (permitted) ratio and Orlah and Kelayim require a 1 to 200 ratio. <ref>Rambam Machalot Assurot 15:13-4 </ref>
#Some have the practice to boil 3 eggs at a time so that if one is found with a blood spot, it will be nullified and not make the pot non-kosher. Some note that this practice is not necessary nowadays when the eggs are not fertilized.<ref>[http://www.kashrut.com/articles/eggs/ Halachically Speaking vol 4 issue 18]</ref>
