| Description | A significant influence of an extraordinarily high bromide intake in the rat on the whole-body biological half-life of iodine was established. The observed changes were caused by an increase of iodine elimination by kidneys due to an excess of bromide. The overall picture of iodine elimination in animals fed the low-iodine diet was similar to that in animals maintained on iodine-sufficient diet. |
