Diets with a higher proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids (i.e., linoleic acid) have decreased iron absorption and utilization
compared with diets containing a higher proportion of the saturated fatty acid stearic acid (e.g., beef tallow). However,
less is known regarding the influence of other polyunsaturated or monounsaturated fatty acids, along with higher dietary iron,
on iron absorption and utilization. The present study was conducted to compare the effects of dietary fat sources known to
vary in (n-3), (n-6), and (n-9) fatty acids on iron utilization and liver mineral concentrations. Male weanling rats were
fed a diet containing 10, 35, or 100 μg/g iron in combination with saffower oil, flaxseed oil, olive oil, or beef tallow for
8 wk. Indicators of iron status, iron utilization, and liver iron concentrations were unaffected by an interaction between
the fat source and iron concentration. Plasma copper was the only variable affected by an interaction between the fat source
and dietary iron. Findings of this study demonstrate that flaxseed oil and olive oil may alter tissue minerals and affect
iron utilization. Further studies should be conducted to establish the effect of varying (n-3), (n-6), and (n-9) fatty acids
on trace mineral status and iron utilization.

The balances and content of essential elements (iron, copper, zinc, chromium and manganese) in the body of Wistar, Zucker lean and Zucker obese rats fed a reference or cafeteria diet from day 30 to 60 after birth have been studied. Intestinal iron absorption compensated for low iron content of the cafeteria diet and the extra needs of growth and fat deposition. It can be assumed that the altered energy regulation processes that afflict the genetically obese rat are not directly related to altered iron metabolism. Obese Zucker rats had lower copper tissue concentrations than lean rats, but when fed a cafeteria diet the differences between Zucker rats strains disappear. This cannot be traced to large differences in diet copper concentration. A low diet availability of zinc—such as that of cafeteria-fed fa/fa rats—is easily compensated for by increasing absorption. So, as a consequence, we can conclude that genetic obesity did not impair zinc absorption. There was no deficit of zinc in any of the groups studied; the rats have enough capacity to extract zinc within a wide range of dietary concentrations. The absorption of dietary chromium was inversely proportional to its concentration. The ability to extract chromium from the diet and the very low urinary losses are a consequence of its scarcity in most dietary items. Despite wide variations in the manganese of the diets, the absorption rates were practically unchanged except for obese rats fed the cafeteria diet. It seems that this low absorptive capacity is enough to supply the rat with the manganese it needs, since a sizeable—but subjected to 8-fold-span variations-proportion is lost in the urine. This alone points towards a considerable excess of manganese in both diets studied. Obesity does not have a significant effect on the abilities to absorb and retain minerals, since these processes were more related to dietary availability. Management of essential metals by obese rats depends whether this condition is genetic or induced by diet. Most of the differences observed can be related to differences in diet concentration, to the excess fat content or different metabolic attitude to use substrates of obese animals. The data presented show that the cafeteria diet used adequately serves the mineral needs of the rat, since the rat adapts its absorbing and retaining strategies to match the dietary availability of these minerals. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to evaluate daily intake of minerals and concentrations of minerals in hair in women of reproductive age. The study included 77 menstruating women, aged 35.9?±?9.7?years. Subjects were divided into three groups according to age. All women were healthy. Hair samples were taken from several points of the occipital scalp. The content of minerals in hair samples was determined by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. Dietary intake of the analysed minerals was assayed on the basis of dietary intake interviews from three preceding days and evaluated using the dietetic computer programme. It was shown that calcium and iron daily intake by the women was below the recommended value. Only few women had low concentrations (below reference values) of magnesium, copper and zinc in hair. Statistically significant differences were shown between age groups. Generally, the concentrations of minerals in hair in the younger (19-30?years) and the older women (41-50?years) were higher than in hair of middle-aged women (31-40?years). The content of calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc in daily diets of women correlated inversely with copper level in their hair. Food products with good bioavailability of iron and calcium should be recommended for women of childbearing age in all age groups. 相似文献

The solubilities of zinc, iron, copper, magnesium, calcium, inorganic phosphate, and citrate in milk decreased when acidic milk preparations were neutralized. In decaseinated bovine milk soluble zinc, iron, and copper were reduced 90%, 60%, and 50%, respectively, as the pH was raised from 4 to 7. Simultaneous precipitation of minerals and citrate was confirmed by analysis of washed precipitate. We propose that the diminished solubilities of zinc, iron, copper, magnesium, and citrate are linked to the precipitation of calcium phosphate through one or more mechanisms of coprecipitation. Such control on mineral solubility may have an impact upon mineral absorption from milk. 相似文献

Copper absorption was measured at two levels of dietary zinc in six healthy young men who were confined to a metabolic unit
for a 75 d study of zinc utilization. A diet of conventional foods was fed, providing either 16.5 or 5.5 mg zinc and 1.3 mg
copper daily. Copper absorption was determined by feeding 65Cu, a stable isotope of copper, once during the 16.5 mg Zn diet and near the beginning and end of the 5.5 mg Zn diet. Apparent
copper absorption averaged 48.1% when the 16.5 mg Zn diet was fed. This was significantly higher than the averages of 37.2
and 38.5% when the 5.5 mg Zn diet was fed. Absorption also differed significantly among subjects. Fecal copper did not differ
between diets or among subjects. All subjects were in positive copper balance at both levels of dietary zinc. These results
suggest that a dietary zinc intake slightly above the Recommended Dietary Allowance of 15 mg/d does not increase fecal copper
loss and does not interfere with copper absorption. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to measure the content of calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, and copper and determine the bioavailability of these ingredients in gluten-free breads fortified with milk and selected seeds. Due to the increasing prevalence of celiac disease and mineral deficiencies, it has become necessary to produce food with higher nutritional values which maintains the appropriate product characteristics. This study was designed for gluten-free breads fortified with milk and seeds such as flax, poppy, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds or nuts, and flour with amaranth. Subsequently, digestion was performed in vitro and the potential bioavailability of the minerals was measured. In the case of calcium, magnesium, iron, and copper, higher bioavailability was observed in rice bread, and, in the case of copper and zinc, in buckwheat bread. This demonstrated a clear increase in bioavailability of all the minerals when the bread were enriched. However, satisfactory results are obtained only for the individual micronutrients. 相似文献

Mineral and trace element interactions were studied in a balance trial with rats. Calcium, copper, and zinc were supplied
to a rapeseed meal diet in a factorial design. Animals were fed ad libitum, and absorption, excretion, and retention of the elements were evaluated either as fractions of total intake or in relation
to nitrogen retention to account for differences in food intake and lean body mass increment. The intrinsic content of minerals
and trace elements was sufficient to support growth at a rate that could be expected from the rapeseed protein quality. However,
when calcium was included in the diet, the intrinsic dietary level of zinc appeared to be limiting, despite the fact that
the zinc level was twice the recommended level. Additional zinc supply reversed growth impairment. This calcium-zinc interaction
is believed to be owing to the formation of phytate complexes. Calcium addition influenced the calcium, phosphorus, magnesium,
zinc, and iron—but not the copper—balances. The addition of calcium reduced the availability of the intrinsic zinc, whereas
no effect was seen in the zinc-fortified groups. The availability of intrinsic copper was in a similar way significantly impaired
by addition of dietary zinc, where-as copper-supplied groups were unaffected by zinc addition. Intrinsic iron availability
was also dependent upon zinc addition, although in a more ambigouus way. Thus, addition of extrinsic minerals to a diet high
in phytate can result in significant impairments of growth and mineral utilization. 相似文献

The interactions between copper, zinc, and iron intake in rats were investigated with regard to copper status. Weanling male rats were fed purified diets containing two levels of each of the three elements in a 2 3 factorial design. The added amounts of copper, zinc, and iron in the diets were 5, 12, and 35 mg/kg feed or were 10 times as high. After feeding on the experimental diets for 4 wk, the rats were killed and copper concentrations in plasma and organs measured. Plasma copper concentration was lowered by high zinc and iron intakes but this was seen only in the rats fed the normal-copper instead of the high-copper diets. In essence, the effects of zinc and iron were additive. Neither in rats fed the normal-copper diets nor in those fed the high-copper diets did extra iron or zinc intake alter copper concentrations in liver, spleen, kidney, and tibia. 相似文献

Tissue and organ deposition and blood parameters were evaluated as indices of mineral and trace element absorption in rats.
The absorption of elements was quantified in relation to nitrogen retention, i.e., considering the weight gain and new tissue
synthesis. A rapeseed meal diet was supplied with three levels of calcium, two levels of zinc, and two levels of copper in
a factorial design. In general, an increase in dietary mineral content increased the relative absorption, which in turn, increased
the tissue deposition progressively. Striated muscle, however, did not respond to either an increased calcium or zinc supply.
Furthermore, an increased calcium absorption caused a depression of the fractional phosphorus and magnesium content of femur
bones. The copper content of the kidneys and the heart muscle was directly proportional to the amount of absorbed zinc and
iron, respectively. The iron content of tissues was, in general, inversely proportional to zinc absorption and showed a tendency
to be directly proportional to copper absorption. The zinc level in tissues was, in a similar way, inversely correlated to
measured calcium absorption. In conclusion, interactions between elements do not only affect the intestinal element absorption,
but also the distribution of already absorbed elements in tissues and organs. 相似文献

Rats were fed diets containing starch, sucrose, glucose, or fructose as the carbohydrate source, and the influence of these carbohydrates on copper, iron, and zinc status was determined. It was found that copper absorption was reduced in animals receiving glucose. This reduction was exaggerated when a high level of iron was present in the diet, indicating a possible antagonism between iron and copper at the site of absorption. Iron and zinc status of the animals also appeared to be influenced to some extent by dietary carbohydrate. 相似文献

Experiments were conducted with broilers and layers with the aim of reducing manure content of zinc, copper and manganese by using lower supplemented levels of mineral proteinates. Broilers were fed maize-soy diets containing conventional levels of trace minerals provided by inorganic salts. Other treatments involved use of mineral proteinates fed at from 70–20% of the control diet levels. Diet generally had no effect (P>0.05) on body weight or feed efficiency to 42 d. A total collection procedure showed that at the lowest level of mineral proteinate supplementation excretion of zinc, manganese and copper was reduced by 38%, 52% and 21%, respectively. In a second study, layers were fed either conventional sources and levels of trace minerals, no trace minerals, or 20% of regular levels as mineral proteinates. Diet had no effect on egg numbers from 38–70 weeks. Egg size was always reduced in birds fed diets devoid of supplemental trace minerals. Using the lower levels of diet minerals, there was a 66% reduction in excretion of zinc and 78% reduction in excretion of manganese. It seems as though we are overfeeding trace minerals, and that with judicious use of mineral proteinates, it is possible to maintain performance while concomitantly reducing mineral content of manure. 相似文献

The objectives of the study were to determine dietary zinc bioavailability by using a double label stable isotope technique, and to identify the zinc content and levels of some possible factors which may affect zinc utilization in a typical representative Chinese urban diet. Twenty urban women of childbearing age were fed a diet extrinsically labeled with 67Zn and received intravenous (i.v.) injections of 70Zn. Fecal monitoring, urine monitoring and chemical balance technique were used simultaneously for comparisons. Isotopic enrichment in feces and urine after oral and i.v. administration of stable zinc isotopes was measured to determine the ways of zinc absorption. The mean (+/-SD) zinc intake from the representative Chinese diet was 10.22+/-0.80 mg/day, which is lower than the reference nutrient intake (RNI) level (11.5 mg/day), and mainly came from the subsidiary foods (63%). The mean dietary Fe/Zn weight was 1.1+/-0.1. The phytate/zinc molar ratio in the diet was about 3:1. The phytic acidxCa/zinc molar ratio in the diet was about 45:1. The apparent and true absorption rates of 67Zn were 36.2+/-9.7% and 38.2+/-10.1%, respectively, which were higher than the apparent absorption determined by balance technique (29.7+/-10.6%). The mean fractional absorption (FA) determined in urine was 35.7+/-13.3. In conclusion, the subsidiary food is the main source of dietary zinc in this typical diet. The extrinsic labeling technique by use of stable isotopes was more reliable and accurate to determine zinc absorption. Moreover, the double isotopic tracer ratio (DITR) technique applied to urine samples was a more practical and valuable way to evaluate zinc absorption than other methods. It can be speculated that iron and phytic acid might not be the main inhibitors in the representative Chinese diet. 相似文献

Many investigators have reported changes in mineral status with age but conflicting observations were done concerning mineral absorption. This study was conducted to clarify the effect of aging on intestinal absorption and status of minerals, using a stable isotope approach. To do so, 40 rats of different ages: 9, 22, 44, and 88 weeks were fed with a semi-purified diet for a total of 30 days. At the beginning of the 4th week, the rats received a stable isotope solution containing (44)Ca, (25)Mg, (67)Zn, and (65)Cu. Individual feces and urine were then collected during 4 consecutive days in order to measure stable isotopes by inductively coupled plasma/mass spectrometry (ICP/MS) and blood and tissues were sampled for mineral status determination. Intestinal absorption of (44)Ca and (67)Zn considerably decreased with age, whereas intestinal (25)Mg absorption decreased only moderately and intestinal (65)Cu absorption was unaffected. Plasma and bone calcium (Ca) were not modified with age whereas urinary Ca excretion considerably increased. Plasma and erythrocyte magnesium (Mg) levels were unaffected with age whereas urinary Mg excretion and Mg bone level decreased. Plasma zinc (Zn) level decreased and bone Zn level increased with age whereas red blood cell and liver Zn level and urinary Zn excretion remained unchanged. Plasma Cu level increased with age whereas liver and bone Cu levels and urinary Cu excretion remained unchanged. These results show that the effect of aging on the intestinal mineral absorption and status differ largely according to the mineral considered. Further studies are required under different nutritional conditions to explore the underlying mechanisms during aging and to adjust a better nutrition of the elderly. 相似文献

Zinc and iron are crucial mineral components of human diet, because their deficiency leads to several disorders, including
alterations of the immune function. It has been demonstrated, in both humans and rodents, that a diminished number of lymphoid
cells and a loss of lymphocyte activity accompany deprivation of these essential minerals. The aim of this work was to analyze
if iron and/or zinc imbalances regulate lymphocyte activity and the intracellular signals involved in the effect. Mice from
the BALB/c strain were fed with iron- and/or zinc-deficient or mineral-supplemented diets, according to the American Institute
of Nutrition Rodent Diets. Levels of iron and zinc were assessed in blood, liver, or bone samples. Selective mitogen stimulation
of T- and B-lymphocytes were performed. We found a diminished proliferative response in T- and B-lymphocytes from zinc- and/or
iron-deficient animals with respect to controls. These effects were related to decreased mitogen-induced translocation of
protein kinase C (PKC) activity to cell membranes on both cell types from all animals fed with deficient diets. Our results
demonstrate that iron and zinc deficiencies affect both T- and B-lymphocyte function by PKC-dependent mechanisms. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to assess the metabolic and physiological changes in rats fed a diet high in fat, fructose, and salt, and with excess iron level. Mineral status was also estimated. Wistar rats were assigned to groups fed either a standard control diet (C) or a diet high in fat, fructose, and salt. The noncontrol diets contained either normal (M) or high level (MFe) of iron. After 6 weeks, the length and weight of the rats were measured, and the animals were euthanized. The kidneys and gonads were collected, and blood samples were taken. Serum levels of insulin, nitric oxide, and iron were measured. The iron, zinc, copper, and calcium concentrations of tissues were determined. It was found that the M diet led to a significant increase in the relative kidney mass of the rats compared with the control group. Among the rats fed the M diet, markedly higher serum level of iron and lower levels of zinc and copper were observed in tissues, while significantly higher calcium levels were found in the gonads. The MFe diet resulted in decreased obesity index, insulin level, and nitric oxide serum concentration in the rats, when compared with both the M and C diets. The high iron level in the modified diet increased the relative mass of the gonads. The excess iron level in the diet disturbed the zinc, copper, and calcium status of tissues. The decrease in insulin and nitric oxide in rats fed the diet high in iron, fat, fructose, and salt was associated with disorders of zinc, copper, and calcium status, as well as with an increase in the relative mass of the gonads. 相似文献

Background and AimsThe three-dimensional distributions of mineral elements in potato tubers provide insight into their mechanisms of transport and deposition. Many of these minerals are essential to a healthy human diet, and characterizing their distribution within the potato tuber will guide the effective utilization of this staple foodstuff. MethodsThe variation in mineral composition within the tuber was determined in three dimensions, after determining the orientation of the harvested tuber in the soil. The freeze-dried tuber samples were analysed for minerals using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Minerals measured included those of nutritional significance to the plant and to human consumers, such as iron, zinc, copper, calcium, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium and sulphur. Key ResultsThe concentrations of most minerals were higher in the skin than in the flesh of tubers. The potato skin contained about 17 % of total tuber zinc, 34 % of calcium and 55 % of iron. On a fresh weight basis, most minerals were higher in tuber flesh at the stem end than the bud end of the tuber. Potassium, however, displayed a gradient in the opposite direction. The concentrations of phosphorus, copper and calcium decreased from the periphery towards the centre of the tuber. ConclusionsThe distribution of minerals varies greatly within the potato tuber. Low concentrations of some minerals relative to those in leaves may be due to their low mobility in phloem, whereas high concentrations in the skin may reflect direct uptake from the soil across the periderm. In tuber flesh, different minerals show distinct patterns of distribution in the tuber, several being consistent with phloem unloading in the tuber and limited onward movement. These findings have implications both for understanding directed transport of minerals in plants to stem-derived storage organs and for the dietary implications of different food preparation methods for potato tubers. 相似文献

Enriched stable isotopes used as tracers have proven to be valuable in studies of the absorption and metabolism of minerals. Unlike radioisotopes, they can be used in high-risk population groups such as infants, children, and pregnant or lactating women. Estimates of mineral absorption can be made from the oral administration of a single tracer or from two tracers, one given orally and the other intravenously (IV). It is possible to determine the metabolism of the mineral with modeling based on the amount of the tracer or tracers in different biological samples. One of the key decisions in studies of this type is determining which enriched isotope and what amount to use. An example is given of calculations to estimate and compare the amounts of tracers needed for an absorption study. Methods for calculating the amounts of tracer in oral and IV doses are presented, and limits of detection and quantitation are discussed in terms of percent of enrichment and related to isotope ratio measurement precision. A general review of the use of mass spectrometric instruments for quantifying various stable isotopes is given. 相似文献

Changes in some trace minerals concentrations (calcium, inorganic phosphorus, magnesium, zinc, iron, copper, sodium and potassium) in blood plasma were investigated during a three-year period in Shetland pony mares. Blood plasma mineral concentrations were determined by the atomic absorption method and colorimetric method. The three-year averages were in micrograms/ml; Na 4630 +/- 168; K 277 +/- 3.8; Ca 171 +/- 3.8; P 31.5 +/- 0.74; Fe 1.92 +/- 0.14; Zn 1.07 +/- 0.04 and Cu 1.06 +/- 0.02. Two trace minerals (magnesium in inorganic phosphorus) showed only long-term tendency changes--upward or downward trends were not connected with the season. Most of the investigated minerals showed both a long-term change tendency and more or less marked seasonally related concentration changes, being higher during autumn or winter (zinc, sodium), or during spring and summer (calcium, copper, iron and potassium). Some interrelationships between particular trace mineral concentrations in blood plasma were also observed. 相似文献

Dietary copper in the U.S. often is lower than that proved insufficient for men and women under controlled conditions. Iron overload can have adverse effects on copper nutriture and can produce cardiac disease in people. The hypothesis that iron can interfere with copper utilization to produce adverse effects related to cardiovascular function was tested. Rats were fed a diet high in iron and marginal, but not deficient in copper for comparison with similar diets containing iron at the recommended amount. Copper and iron were measured by atomic absorption spectroscopy; cholesterol was measured by fluorescence, ceruloplasmin was measured by oxidase activity and hematology was done by an automated cell counter. When dietary copper was 2.0 mg/kg of diet, high iron decreased (p<0.008) cardiac and hepatic copper, plasma copper and ceruloplasmin, and increased (p<0.02) cardiac weight, hepatic iron and plasma cholesterol. When dietary copper was increased to 2.5 mg/kg, copper in heart and plasma decreased (p<0.04) and hepatic iron increased (p=0.001) with high iron but other effects disappeared. No harmful changes in hematology, such as hematocrit, mean corpuscular volume, etc. were found. High iron increased the dietary copper requirement of the animals. People with iron overload may benefit from copper supplementation, particularly if they habitually consume a diet low in copper. 相似文献
