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.
