Influence of stable iodine on the transfer of 131I into cows' milk.
The effect of supplying three different stable iodine levels (about 70, 80, and 160 mg day-1) in the daily feed of four dairy cows has been studied for the excretion pattern of 131I. None of the different treatments had a statistically significant effect. A mean milk transfer coefficient of 0.015 +/- 0.001 d l-1 was determined for all iodine supply levels investigated.
