Serum transferrin measurement was performed by radial immunodiffusion for 274 female students in the department of food science in this university after getting the approval of the ethical committee and also the consent of the students. Serum transferrin concentration was measurable in 0.04μ 1 of serum and the average value in the students was 321.6±76.7mg/dl. Transferrin concentration had statistically negative correlation (p<0.01) for MCV (mean corpuscular volume of erythrocytes), transferrin saturation or serum ferritin concentration within the subjects. The 10〜90 percentile range within 256 students, who were in normal Hb value, was 240〜386mg/dl. The estimated percentage, who suffered from iron deficiency in the subjects, was 10.2% in MCV, 19.3% in transferrin saturation and 11.0% in serum ferritin concentration. Provided that 386mg/dl of transferrin concentration was cut-off value of iron nutrition, the percentage beyond that value was 12.8%. Serum transferrin measurement seemed to be a reliable method for evaluating iron status, which canbe practicedby less than 10μ 1 of sera.
