Indian Journal of Medical Research. 1992 Jun; 96(): 168-70http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/21344The iodine content of fresh and processed marine fish collected from different parts of coastal India was analysed. It was found that Indian marine fish are rich in iodine content (mean of 193 +/- 82 micrograms/100 g on wet weight basis). Also the iodine contents of shell fish and crabs (0.7-2.5 mg/100 g on wet weight basis) were higher than that of other fish. No significant regional differences were noted in the iodine content of marine fish. Further, no differences were observed in case of either salted or sun-dried fish indicating that curing did not influence the iodine content.engAnimalsFishes --metabolismIndiaIodine --analysisSeawaterJournal Article
