Folic acid absorption in various gastrointestinal disorders.

In a consecutive study of 228 patients with folate deficiency originating from various gastrointestinal and haematological disorders, the clinical value of the folic acid absorption (TRIFA) test is assessed. It is concluded that the test is a simple, rapid, and reliable index for folic acid malabsorption of importance as well as a research tool as in daily practice.

A modified fecal excretion test for assaying intestinal absorption of 3H-folic acid.

A method for determination of the intestinal absorption of folic acid is described. It is based on the principle of double tracer technique in assay of fecal samples using gas proportional counting for 3H determinations. As the procedure is simple, reliable, and inexpensive, it is considered to be of value for laboratories without advanced equipment for radiochemical assay.
