Sažetak
Conclusions : Human nutritional status of Fe may be reliably assessed by analyzing its frequency distribution in the hair with median derivatives bioassay. Hair iron is a rare case between the bioelements we have tested thusafar where wholeblood concentrations were higher than that in the hair. Our exploration indicates that the so called iron subclinical deficiency may be adequately quantified. Indeed, continuous subliminal iron supplementation may be a better therapeutic option than current supplementation with high doses associated with the unwanted side effects.
