ABSTRACT
Previous data have demonstrated that thyroid gland thyroxine secretion rate in suckling rats is high and correlated with the hormonal needs of the young. Non-hormonal iodine metabolism is more elevated in the young than in the adult. The object of the present work was to measure rates of iodine transfer in 10-day old families of rats equilibrated with 125I or not. Reciprocal iodine exchange between mother and young occurred in such a way that the dam recovered about 60 p. 100 of the iodine lost in the milk. Moreover, a large store of extrathyroidal iodine was constituted in the young, particularly in the pelt.
