Abstract
- The article discusses research that evaluates the correlation between a woman's daily intake of iodine and perchlorate and the concentrations of each in her breast milk. While a 20% proportion of iodine enters breast milk, this is true for 50% of perchlorate. Purnendu Dasgupta and colleagues of the University of Texas Arlington studied this correlation via the urine of mothers aged 24 - 34. In vitro contamination effects are discussed.
