Iron and Zinc Treatment in Iron Deficiency
The recent report by Özhan et al. was very interesting [1]. Özhan et al. concluded that “iron and zinc treatment instead of only iron replacement may be considered in cases of iron deficiency” [1]. The results from their study might support this suggestion. Nevertheless, we would like to add some comments.

Four groups were supplemented for 12 weeks: (1) weekly iron and folic acid (IFA); (2) weekly IFA and 30 mg zinc; (3) daily IFA; (4) daily IFA and 15 mg zinc. Effect...
متن کاملZinc, Iron, and Chlorophyll Metabolism in Zinc-toxic Corn.
Zinc toxicity and Zn-Fe interactions were studied in corn (Zea mays L. var. Barbecue hybrid) grown in hydroponic culture. High Zn greatly reduced the root and shoot fresh weights; increasing Fe largely, but not completely, restored normal growth. Correlation analyses of root and leaf Zn and Fe contents suggested that Zn may interfere with the translocation of Fe; however, Zn toxicity was not as...
