- 1. Iodine balance was studied in 3-day periods for 15 days on three subjects, nine on a fourth, and six on a fifth.
- 2. The combined urine and stool iodine may account for less than 50 per cent of the iodine intake.
- 3. There was a fairly uniform output of iodine for an individual on a monotonous diet.
- 4. The fecal iodine was higher in these studies than in those of Scheffer and von Fellenberg.
- 5. In two subjects studied Scheffer's observation of an increased fecal iodine in hyperthyroidism was confirmed.
