title: [A study on the bioavailability of fluoride added into milk].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To assess the bioavailability of fluoride added into milk.
  
  
  METHODS
  Eight subjects were studied by testing fluoride levels in blood and urine samples collected after drinking fluoridated milk and fluoridated water respectively, according to pharmacokinetics and cross control method.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The bioavailability of fluoride in fluoridated milk reached 80.2% in blood analysis and 84.8% in urine analysis. The result was about 20.0% lower as compared with fluoridated water.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Fluoride bioavailability in fluoridated milk is still high and sufficient.
