Results
Pilot study
Renal iodine excretion depended on the
intake (Figure 1). The mink ate sufficient of
the diets, and the methods for analysis gave
reliable results in respectively diet, urine and
faeces within the levels used.
Balance study
Due to analytical problems, iodine intake is
based on calculated feed content (Figure 2)
Extrapolating the linear regression to zero
feed intake gives a renal excretion of 21.2 g
iodine/kg0.75/24 hours. The average faecal
excretion of iodine is 3.7 g/kg0.75/24 h,
resulting in an estimate of minks iodine
requirement for maintenance as 24.9 g/
kg0.75/24h. The surrounding temperature
was 15.9C.
