Undesirable low molecular weight iron complexes, at concentration about 3% in the pharmaceutical formulation, can be easily determined with good accuracy and precision. This methodology can be proposed as a viable, environmentally sustainable substitute for the conventional Normal Pulse Polarographic method in US Pharmacopeia, with better analytical figures of merit, and reduced Hg consumption. A deeper insight in Fe(Ⅱ) and Fe(Ⅲ) composition can be gained by the combined use of a new potentiometric technique after chemical decomposition of the complex.展开更多

IgG subclass deficiencies were found in 28 (59.6%) cases with the frequency in order as IgG4 (27.7%, 13 / 47), IgGl (21.3%, 10/47), IgG3 (14.9%, 7/47), and IgG2 (2.1%, 1 / 47). Compared with age-atched healthy children, the mean concentration of serum IgG4 and IgGl, and PnPs specific IgGl, IgG2 antibodies were decreased in children with iron deficiency. Decreased CD4 cells and CD4 / CD8 ratio in peripheral blood, low interleukin? (IL-6) activity, reduced lymphocyte proliferative responsiveness and increased recurrent respiratory tract infections (RRTI) were found in iron deticiency children. These results suggested that serum IgG subclass and PnPs specific IgG subclass antibody deficiencies caused by dysfunction of the regulation of T lymphocyte on B lymphocyte may be related to the susceptibility to RRTI in children with iron deficiency.展开更多
