Iron fortificants wheat flour and iron bioavailability on rats
Keywords:
Anaemia, fortification, iron, rat, wheat flower
Abstract
Wheat flour fortification with iron has long been recognized as an effective tool in the global problem against iron deficiency anemia. Fe absorption in rats and humans are similar thus the use of rat in this experiment helps to predict human responses. This study evaluates the in vivo bioavailability of iron from wheat flour fortified with iron and iron absorption promoters.
