title: [Study on normal ranges of thyroglobulin of total population in iodine-replete region of China].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To deduce normal ranges of thyroglobulin of total population in iodine-replete region by determining the human serum thyroglobulin in normal population of part full iodine region.
  
  
  METHODS
  Typical survey was used in this present study. Children aged 8-10 years, adults aged 18-45 years, pregnant woman and lactating women were chosen as our subjects. Morning fasting blood samples of subjects were collected. Thyroglobulin and thyroid function were determined, and the measured value of those subjects with normal thyroid function was analyzed.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The normal ranges of thyroglobulin of the subjects were as following: Children aged 8-10 years: male (1.40, 10.18) microg/L,female (1.41, 11.44) microg/L, adults aged 18-45 years: male (1.55, 39.88) microg/L, female (1.44, 23.22) microg/L, pregnant woman: (0.94, 11.91) microg/L, lactating women: (0.12, 15.05) microg/L.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The research confirmed the serum Tg normal reference of different populations under the adequate iodine level, regarding this, Tg was adviced to be involed in the IDD survey indicators.
