IRON BINDING PROTEIN EVALUATION IN
FOODS OF ANIMAL ORIGIN
T
he study of heme and non-heme iron binding proteins in food products
is benefical in assessing the potential of bioavailable iron. The individual
methods of separating and extracting these proteins from tissues have allowed
quantitative estimation of these. The heme protein myoglobin (Mb) was sepa-
rated from other liver proteins by extraction with acetone, 94%. The non-heme
protein conalbumin was separated from other egg albumin proteins due to its
absolute solubility in ethyl alcohol. The non-heme protein ferritin being located
in the egg yolk serum first requires the separation of the yolk serum. The iden-
tification of iron in protein preparations was performed by optical methods.
The amount of iron in the composition of
oxymyoglobin
(MbO
2
) from animal
liver ranged from 3.7 to 6.8 g /%. Detailed knowledge of the protein forms of
bioavailable iron from animal sources will allow for proper monitoring of the
cooking processes, anticipating the antianemic effect of diets.
