| Abstract: | This project was undertaken with the aim of developing a method for the assay of iodoamino acids in human serum. The iodoamino acids were separated by an ion exchange technique, and the resulting solutions analyzed for iodine using neutron activation analysis. This analytical system was applied to the analysis.of a number of serum samples from hypothyroid and hyperthyroid subjects. This allowed the division of each of these conditions into a number of classes in terms of the deviation of the individual iodoamino acid concentration from their normal ranges. |
