Iron Loss and Iron Requirement

  • Chapter
Iron Metabolism

  • 270 Accesses

Abstract

Measurement of iron loss is technically difficult. Chemical iron balances require meticulous technique to avoid contamination, and they do not allow the differentiation between nonabsorbed iron and iron excreted through the gastrointestinal tract. Isotope techniques require knowledge of the distribution of the radioiron within the organism and the extent of the various iron pools.
