Bioavailability of nanoparticles of ferric oxide when used in nutrition. Experimental results in rats
AbstractBioavailability of iron (Fe) introduced in the form of nanoparticles of ferric oxide and ferric sulphate was characterized in rats receiving Fe-deficient semi synthetic diet. Shown that nanoparticles of ferric oxide as well as the traditional form of this trace element (soluble salt of Fe) can restore the status of this trace element disturbances due to its scarcity in the diet.
