The objective of this study is to evaluate the relative bioavailabilities (RBA) of iron in Soybean meal and egg yolk powder by means of the rat hemoglobin repletion method, and to analyse their iron contents by the atomic absorption spectrometric determination.The iron content of soybean meal is 159.78 ppm, RBA is 67.24%; the iron content of egg yolk powder is 128.65ppm, RBA is 70.90%. This means that both soybean and egg yolk are of high iron contents, and their RBAs are not too inferior, indicating that the absolute amounts of available iron are still high. So both of them should be considered a rather good source of dietary iron.Using the total iron consumption and the final total hemoglobin of each animal during the hemoglobin repletion period as a dose-response index to calculate the RBA is thought to be reasonable.

Objective To understand the effects of stove-improvement measures in coal-burning-induced fluoride poisoning area in Luoyang.Methods Dynamic monitoring on the fluoride concentration in indoor air,grain(corn and wheat),vegetable(chili,radish and Chinese cabbage),and the urine fluoride concentration and prevalence of dental fluorosis among8-12year old children was conducted after the performance of stove-improvement measures in coal-burning-induced fluoride poisoning area,Jiangzhuang village,Xinan county,Luoyang,during1991-2000,while the obtained data were compared with those in1990.Re sults After the performance of stove-improvement measures,all of the fluoride contents in indoor air,grain and veg-etable,the urine fluoride concentration and the prevalence of dental fluorosis of8-12aged children revealed a trend of decrease on the whole,and accorded with the corresponding standards for non-fluoride poinsoning area,despite of the fluctuating data in different years.Conclu sion The stove-improvement measures could effectively prevent the indoor air,grain and vegetable from fluoride pollution,and control the prevalence of fluoride poisoning in coal-burning-induced fluoride poisoning area.
