11. Intake and dietary sources of heme and non-heme iron in children and adolescents: recommendations for preventing iron deficiencyC. JuliánAlmárceguiA.L.M. HeathL. HarveyB. SarriaI. Huybrechts
Summary.The abilityof various haem- and non-haem-iron-containingcompoundsto support the growth of iron-limited cultures of Haemophilus ducreyi was assessed in a plate bioassay. Only haemin or the haem-containing proteins, bovine haemoglobin, human haemoglobin and bovine catalase, but not equine cytoc...
There are two types of iron from food: heme and non-heme. Heme iron comes from hemoglobin. It's found only in animal foods that originally contained hemoglobin, like red meats, fish, and poultry. This type is easiest for your body to absorb. Most nonheme iron is from plant sources or...
Heme compounds as iron sources for nonpathogenic Rhibozium bacteria.Examines the use of heme compounds as iron sources for nonpathogenic Rhibozium bacteria. Indications that the use of hemoglobin as iron source is not restricted to animal-pathogenic microorganisms; Study of the use of hemin, ...

Corynebacterium diphtheriae was examined for the ability to utilize various host compounds as iron sources. C. diphtheriae C7(-) acquired iron from heme, hemoglobin, and transferrin. A siderophore uptake mutant of strain C7 was unable to utilize transferrin but was unaffected in acquisition of iron...

Iron Benefits - Functions in the Body Iron is essential for life. It is necessary for the production of haemoglobin. Haemoglobin is composed of four iron-containing heme groups. The heme is responsible for the characteristic colour and the oxygencarrying capacity of the blood. Iron thus ...
