Studies on Mineral Metabolism (2)

Mineral metabolism on rice diets.

Over half the population of the world eats a diet in which rice predominates and such a diet usually has a low mineral content. This is certainly true for the diets consumed by most of the people of Ceylon (Nicholls, 1936; Nicholls & Nimalasuriya, 1939; Bibile, Cullumbine, Watson & Wickramanayake, 1949; Cullumbine, ~gqga), and it is difficult to understand how these people can grow and maintain...

The use of stable isotopes in studies of mineral metabolism

In recent years stable isotopes of metallic and semi-metallic elements have become popular as tracers in studies of nutrition and metabolism. There are several recent reviews on the use of stable isotopes of the mineral elements (Janghorbani & Young, 1980; Janghorbani et af . 1985). The orientation of these reviews has tended toward neutron-activation analysis in conjunction with the faecal iso...
