Trivalent Iodine Compounds and Periodonium Salt as PAG.

Perchlorate, iodine supplements, iodized salt and breast milk iodine content.

This study was undertaken to determine if increasing maternal iodine intake through single dose tablets will decrease breast milk concentrations of the iodine-uptake inhibitor, perchlorate, through competitive inhibition. We also sought to determine if the timing of supplementation influences the fraction of iodine excreted in milk versus urine and to compare the effectiveness of iodized salt a...

Reaction of Trivalent Organophosphorus Compounds with Selenium

Over the years, evidence has been accumulating [1, 2] that selenium is an essential nutrient in animals, preventing various serious deficiency diseases. On the other hand, no such firm proof for the need of selenium in human nutrition has been established, although several instances of beneficial effects as a result of selenium supplementation of human diet have been reported [3-5]. Although va...

Estimation of iodine in salt fortified with iodine & iron.

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE The National Institute of Nutrition (NIN), Hyderabad has developed double fortified salt (DFS) containing both iodine and iron to control the twin problems of iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) and iron deficiency anaemia (IDA). When the iodine content of DFS was estimated by the conventional iodometric titration using sulphuric acid (H(2)SO(4)), problems such as wide vari...

Iodine content in bread and salt in Denmark after iodization and the influence on iodine intake.

OBJECTIVE To measure the iodine content in bread and household salt in Denmark after mandatory iodine fortification was introduced and to estimate the increase in iodine intake due to the fortification. DESIGN The iodine content in rye breads, wheat breads and salt samples was assessed. The increase in iodine intake from fortification of bread and the increase in total iodine intake after for...
