The present study reviewed the effects of excess iodine intake on thyroid function and the incidence of thyroid disease and discussed the scientific basis for establishing a tolerable upper intake level (UL) of iodine for Koreans. ULs are defined as "the highest level of daily nutrient intake that is likely to pose no risk of adverse effects to almost all individuals in the general population." Koreans consume excess iodine from seaweed, and iodine intake is strongly influenced by seaweed consumption. However, no dose-response data derived from subjects consuming excess iodine frequently but not continuously during a lifetime are available. Therefore, the Korean DRI committee set the iodine UL to reduce the risk of adverse health effects by excess iodine intake for Koreans with distinctive seaweed-eating habits.

한국인은 많은 양의 염류를 섭취하며 저단백식을 주로 한다는 사실이 1960년대로부터 알려져왔다. 일련의 연구로부터, 한국인이 많은 양의 염류를 섭취하는 것은 저단백식과 관계가 있는 것으로 여겨져왔다. 지난 30년간 한국인의 식사중 단백성분은 크게 증가해 왔다. 본 연구는 1990년 현재 한국 농촌지역 거주자의 소변 중에 배설되는 나트륨과 칼륨의 양 및 총 소변 배설량을 측정하여 유의할 만한 변화가 있었는지를 알아보기 위하여 실시되었다. 또, 도시지역 거주자와의 비교를 위해 34명의 농촌지역 거주자와 9명의 도시지역 거주자를 대상으로 하였다. 조사기간중 조사대상자를 일상생활을 그대로 영위하도록 하였다. 34시간 동안 배설된 소변을 수집하여 그중의 나트륨, 칼륨, 크레아티닌 농도를 측정하였다. 마지막 뇨 수집 시에는 정맥혈을 채취하여 혈장 중의 나트륨, 칼륨, 총단백 농도를 측정하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 혈장 중의 나트륨, 칼륨, 총단백 농도는 정상범위 내에 있었다. 2) 농촌인구에서는 24시간 소변중의 나트륨, 칼륨 배설량은 각각 $255{\pm}95.6$mEq/day, $45{\pm}15.1$mEq 이었으며 24시간동안 수집된 소변의 총량은 $1800{\pm}514.3$ml/day이었다. 이 수치를 1960년의 자료와 비교할 때 수집된 나트륨 배설량은 감소추세를 보였으나 칼륨과 총 소변배설량에 있어서는 별 변화를 발견할 수 없었다. 3) 농촌거주자의 소변중 Na/K 비는 도시거주자에 비해 유의하게 높았으며 도시지역거주자에 있어서 소변중 나트륨 배설량의 감소추세가 더욱 두드러졌다. 4) 이 수치를 서양인의 수치와 비교하면 아직도 한국 농촌지역 거주자의 염분 섭취가 높음을 보이고 있는 반면 칼륨에 있어서는 서양인에 비해 훨씬 낮음을 알 수 있다. 5) 염분과 단백의 섭취 사이에 있을 수 있는 관계를 고찰했다.

An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of phytase supplementation to the diets containing different levels of non-phytate phosphorus (NPP). A $3{\times}2$ factorial arrangement of treatments was employed. There were three dietary NPP levels of control (C) (0.45% for starter diet and 0.35% for grower diet), C-0.1% NPP (0.35% for starter diet and 0.25% for grower diet), and C-0.2% NPP (0.25% for starter diet and 0.15% for grower diet) and two phytase levels (0 and 500 U/kg). Reduced dietary NPP decreased feed intake and weight gain and increased mortality whereas dietary phytase increased feed intake and weight gain and decreased mortality. Supplemental phytase improved availabilities of dry matter, crude fat, ash, P, Zn, Mg, and Cu whereas dietary NPP level did not affect availabilities of nutrients except decreased Zn availability and increased Cu availability in reduced NPP diets. Nutrient retention of N, ash, Ca, P, Mg, and Zn were linearly decreased as dietary NPP levels reduced but dietary phytase increased their retention. Reduced dietary NPP increased ash excretion but decreased P and Cu excretion while dietary phytase decreased N excretion. Weight, length, girth and contents of ash, Ca, P and Mg of tibia linearly decreased as dietary NPP levels reduced. Dietary phytase increased length and ash content of tibia. It is concluded that dietary phytase can reduce P excretion and alleviate adverse affects caused by feeding low dietary NPP. Effects of phytase were greater in the lower NPP diets.

To estimate the amount of daily salt intake by source of food and urinary sodium excretion, a dietary survey was conducted from August 27th to September 3, 1980. The salt concentration of six kinds of food was measured. The families of 25 womens' club leaders and 25 families of hypertensive patients were studied after they had been given a short course of education on lowsalt diet. The results were as follows: 1. The average amount of high-salt foods eaten daily by the study group were as follows: 4.5 Gm. in the form of table salt 16.8 ml of home-made soy sauce 6.20 ml of commercial soy sauce 11.9 Gm. of home-made red-pepper bean paste 12.0 Gm. of home-made soy-bean paste 120.7 Gm. of Kimchi 2. The average NaCl concentration of each food was as follows: 99.5% in table salt, 22.5% in home made soy sauce, 11.9% in Commercial soy sauce, 6.8 Gm% in home made red pepper bean paste, 9.2 Gm% in home-made soy-bean paste and the average concentration of various kinds of Kimchi was 2.7 Gm%. 3. The total amount of daily salt intake per adult was calculated as 14.3 Gm. By sources of food 4.5 Gm from table salt, 3.9 Gm from home-made soy sauce and 3. 3 Gm from Kimchi were taken daily Three other kinds of food were also minor sources of salt intake.4. The average amounts of individual daily salt intake were not significantly different between the hypertensive group and the normotensive group: the median of the normotensive group (11.7Gm.) was significantly lower than that of the hypertensive group (14.9Gm.). Therefore the womens' club leaders appeared to respond more quickly than the hypertensive group after low-salt diet education. 5. The average amount of sodium excretion in the 24 hour urine specimen was 234.7 mEq. From this finding the daily NaCl intake was estimated to be 15.8Gm.

식이단백질(食餌蛋白質)과 칼슘의 섭취량(攝取量)이 뇨중(尿中) 칼슘 배설량(排泄量)에 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위하여 7명의 백인성인남자(白人成人男子)를 연구대상자(硏究對象者)로 하여 실험하였다. 연구대상자가 7 일동안 섭취한 식이(食餌)의 측량(測量) 기록(記錄)에 의거하여 단백질(蛋白質)(동물성(動物性) 및 식물성(植物性)), 칼슘과 인(燐)의 1 일평균(日平均) 섭취량을 분석하고 24시간의 뇨중(尿中) 칼슘양을 분석하였다. 단백질(蛋白質)과 칼슘의 1 일평균(日平均) 섭취량은 각각 103g과 1,237mg이었다. 뇨중 칼슘의 24시간 배설량은 식이(食餌)에 따라 다양하여 121mg부터 258mg에 달하였다. 모든 실험대상자의 단백질섭취량(蛋白質攝取量)을 4단계로 나누었을 때 : 저(低)(53g), 중(中)(87g), 상(上)(117g)과 고(高)(153g)이었으며, 이때 뇨중 칼슘배설량은 179mg, 189mg. 184mg과 264mg이었다. 단백질(蛋白質) 섭취수준이 고(高)로 증가함에 따라 뇨중칼슘양은 현저히 증가되었다. 특히 동물성단백질 섭취량이 뇨중칼슘양에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났으며 식물성단백질 섭취량은 유의한 영향을 미치지 않았다. 한편 식이(食餌)칼슘의 1 일평균(日平均) 섭취량을 4단계로 나누었을 때 : 저(低)(544mg), 중(中)(842mg), 상(上)(1,232mg)과 고(高)(1,834mg) 이었으며, 이때 뇨중칼슘 배설량은 169mg, 196mg, 222mg 과 197mg이었다. 식이칼슘 섭취량이 저수준(低水準)에서 상(上)으로 증가되었을 때 뇨중칼슘양에 유의적 차이가 있었으나 상(上)에서 고수준(高水準)으로 증가되었을 때는 유의적 차이가 없었다. 이상의 결과에서 뇨중칼슘 배설량은 식이(食餌)칼슘 섭취량의 변화보다 단백질(蛋白質) 섭취량의 변화에 더 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났으며 특히 고단백식(高蛋白食)에 의해서 크게 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 그러므로 상수준(上水準)(117g) 이상의 단백질 과잉섭취는 바람직하지 못하다고 볼 수 있다.

The effect of the level of casein phosphopeptide (CPP) on mineral (Ca and P) bioavailabilties and bone biomarker of aged ovariectomized (OVX) Sprague-Dawley rats were studied as a model for postmenopausal bone loss. Forty five Spargue dawley rats, 220-230 g of body weight were fed a control diet (AIN 93M) or containing different level of CPP diet for 7 weeks: $0\%$ (sham control; SC, OVX control; OC), $1\%$ (OVX low CPP diet: OL), $2\%$ (OVX medium CPP diet; OM), $3\%$ (OVX high CPP diet; OH) Ca absorption was unaffected by increasing CPP content from 0 to $3\%$. Urinary Ca excretion was increased by OVX, and decreased by CPP significantly (p < 0.05) with no evident doserelationship. The urinary P excretion was increased by CPP intake in OVX rats. The fecal excretion of P given CPP decreased in OVX with dose dependent manner. Ca and P contents of femur significantly increased by adding 2 or $3\%$ of CPP when compared with OC group and OL group (p < 0.05). There were no significant differences in serum alkaline phosphatase activity and c-terminal telopeptide excretion in experimental groups. Although ovariectomy induced the increase in urinary c-terminal telopeptide excretion, 2 or $3\%$ of CPP in the diet decreased urinary c-terminal telopetide excretion significantly. These finding suggest the usefulness of CPP in the prevention of postmenopausal bone loss by decreasing urinary Ca excretion and bone resorption. Over 2 percent of CPP in the diet was effective to prevent postmenopausal bone loss.

A group of 101 women, aged 40-65 years consisted of 48 premenopausal subjects and 53 postmenopausal ones living in Daegu and Gyeongbuk area in Korea were evaluated with their general characteristics, lifestyle factors, nutrient and phytoestrogen intakes, blood and urinary indices concerning antioxidant status and bone metabolism. Body mass index (BMI), waist hip ratio (WHR) and systolic blood pressure (SBP) of the postmenopausal women were significantly higher (23.8, 0.86, and 126.9 mmHg, respectively) than those of the premenopausal women (22.6, 0.82, and 115.9 mmHg; respectively). Nutrient intakes of the postmenopausal and premenopausal groups were not different except lower fat intake and higher dietary fiber and iron intakes in the postmenopausal group. Daily total phytoestrogen intake was significantly higher in the postmenopausal group (48.54 mg) than the premenopausal (31.41 mg) and was resulted mostly from higher intakes of daidzein and genistein from soy and soy products (45.42 mg vs 28.91 mg). Serum genistein level and excretion of enterolactone, major lignan metabolite, were not very different between the two groups. Serum retinal and ${\alpha}$- tocopherol levels were higher in the postmenopausal group but TBARS levels were not different between the two groups. Serum osteocalcin (7.18 ng/mL) and urinary deoxypyridinoline (7.15 nmol/mmol creatinine), in the postmenopausal group were significantly higher than those in the premenopausal group (4.80 ng/mL, 5.95 nmol/mmol creatinine). Urinary excretion of enterolactone was positively correlated with serum osetocalcin in premenopausal women and serum genistein negatively correlated with the urinary DPD in postmenopausal women. Dietary phytoestrogen intake was negatively correlated with serum level of TBARS in all subjects. It is concluded that the effect of total phytoestrogen intake is beneficial on body antioxidant status in all middle-aged women regardless of menopause but the effect on bone metabolism appears different by the type of the phytoestrogen and the menopausal state.

본 연구의 목적은 바이오어쎄이 측정오차의 통계적 분포가 섭취량 추정값에 미치는 영향을 분석하여 오차의 분포를 선정하는데 필요한 기준을 제시하는데 있다. 이를 위하여 본 연구에서는 오차가 정규분포와 대수정규분포를 따른다고 가정한 경우에 대해 최대우도법을 사용하여 섭취량을 평가하였고 그 결과를 서로 비교해 보았다. 본 연구의 결과에 따르면, 검출한도보다 약간 높은 값을 갖는 폐 잔류량 측정결과의 경우 두 분포사이에서의 차는 거의 무시할 수 있을 정도로 작게 나타났다. 그러나 일일 소변 배설률에 대한 측정결과의 경우 오차가 대수정규분포를 따른다고 가정하였을 때의 결과가 정규분포를 따른다고 가정하였을 때의 결과보다 거의 10 % 정도 높게 평가되었다. 이러한 사실로 비추어 볼 때 불착도 요소가 계측통계 오차에 주로 기인되는 경우 오차의 분포가 섭취량 추정값에 거의 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 사료되나, 불확도 요소에서 그 이외의 오차가 지배적인 경우에는 대수정규분포를 가정하여 섭취량을 추정하는 것이 바람직하다고 판단된다.

Objective: This study was conducted to provide models to accurately predict nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) excretion of dairy cows on smallholder farms in Indonesia based on readily available farm data. Methods: The generic model in this study is based on the principles of the Lucas equation, describing the relation between dry matter intake (DMI) and faecal N excretion to predict the quantity of faecal N (Q_FN). Excretion of urinary N and faecal P were calculated based on National Research Council recommendations for dairy cows. A farm survey was conducted to collect input parameters for the models. The data set was used to calibrate the model to predict Q_FN for the specific case. The model was validated by comparing the predicted quantity of faecal N with the actual quantity of faecal N (Q_FNACT) based on measurements, and the calibrated model was compared to the Lucas equation. The models were used to predict N and P excretion of all 144 dairy cows in the data set. Results: Our estimate of true N digestibility equalled the standard value of 92% in the original Lucas equation, whereas our estimate of metabolic faecal N was -0.60 g/100 g DMI, with the standard value being -0.61 g/100 g DMI. Results of the model validation showed that the R² was 0.63, the MAE was 15 g/animal/d (17% from Q_FNACT), and the RMSE was 20 g/animal/d (22% from Q_FNACT). We predicted that the total N excretion of dairy cows in Indonesia was on average 197 g/animal/d, whereas P excretion was on average 56 g/animal/d. Conclusion: The proposed models can be used with reasonable accuracy to predict N and P excretion of dairy cattle on smallholder farms in Indonesia, which can contribute to improving manure management and reduce environmental issues related to nutrient losses.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the effect of calcium levels(50, 100 and 200% of requirement) on metabolism of Ca, Na and K in Young and adult female rats for 3 weeks. There was no significant difference in feed intake, body weight gain and feed efficiency ratio among the groups of different Ca intake level. Serum Na level of high-Ca group was significantly lower than that of low-Ca or normal-Ca group in Young rats. There was no significant difference in liver Ca and K contents among the groups of different Ca intake levels. But, Na content in liver was decreased by the increase of dietary Ca intake. Ca content in kidney of high-Ca group in young rats and normal-Ca group in adult rats were significantly higher than those of other groups. Na content in kidney of low-Ca group was lower than those of normal-Ca and high-Ca groups. Urinary excretions of Na and K and fecal excretion of Ca were increased by the increase of dietary Ca intake. But, fecal excretions of Na and K were not affected by dietary Ca intake. According to this study, it was found that the high Ca consumption promotes excretions of fecal Ca and urinary Na and K in rats. The study verifies the need for more study on the interrelationship among Ca, Na and K metabolism and bood pressure.
