Plasma and erythrocyte folate in iron deficiency and folate deficiency.
I T WAS SHOWN by Toennies et a!.1 that most of the blood folate is within the erythrocytes. The erythrocyte folate level may be reduced in either folate or vitamin B12 deficiency,25 and it can be used as an index of the folate content of body tissues.4 The present paper reports that in iron deficiency anemia there are abnormalities in distribution of folate between plasma and erythrocytes which...
متن کاملErythrocyte folate analysis: a cause for concern?
Neural tube defects can be prevented by adequate intake of periconceptional folate, and inverse associations between folate status and cardiovascular disease and various cancers have been noted. Thus, there is renewed interest in the analysis of red cell folate (RCF) as an indicator of folate deficiency risk. Assessment of the assumptions that underpin RCF assays indicates that many are false. ...
متن کاملValidation of the folate food frequency questionnaire with serum and erythrocyte folate and plasma homocysteine.
The aim of the present study was to develop and validate a folate food frequency questionnaire (FFQ)1 designed to measure dietary folate equivalents. The self-administered FFQ containing 39 items and a reference period of 1 month (i.e. the previous month), was validated against three biomarkers: serum and erythrocyte (RBC) folate, and plasma homocysteine (Hcy). Subjects were women (n=99) betwee...
متن کاملEvaluation of folate status by serum and erythrocyte folate levels and dietary folate intake in Taiwanese schoolchildren.
The folate status and dietary folate intake of Taiwanese schoolchildren was investigated by analysis of both serum and red blood cell (RBC) folate levels and dietary folate intake in 1105 boys and 958 girls aged 6-13 years sampled from the Nutrition and Health Survey in Taiwan Elementary School Children 2001-2002 (NAHSIT Children 2001-2002). Mean serum folate levels were 18.3+/-8.8 nmol/L (8.1+...
