The authors present the investigations concerned the Iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) elimination in children living in South-East of Poland in last 15 years. To achieve the full success, what, as we know is possible, the monitoring and the exact control of the salt iodine supplementation according to the National Program of Iodine Deficiency Elimination (1999-2003) should be maintained. To avoid any negligence, the prompt education of the whole population is necessary, but yet especially the pregnant women. It is important to instruct them about the direct influence of iodine deficiency on the mental development of the fetus and the newborn.

Iodine is a key micronutrient essential for the synthesis of thyroid hormone, which regulates metabolic processes and maintains overall health. Despite its importance, iodine deficiency is a global health issue, leading to disorders such as goiter, hypothyroidism, and developmental abnormalities. Biofortification of crops with iodine is a promising strategy to enhance the dietary iodine intake, providing an alternative to iodized salt.

Non-metallic iodine single-atom catalysts with optimized electronic structures for efficient Fenton-like reactions.

Nat Commun

January 2025

State Environmental Protection Key Laboratory of Environmental Health Impact Assessment of Emerging Contaminants, School of Environmental Science and Engineering, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, P.R. China.

In this study, we introduce a highly effective non-metallic iodine single-atom catalyst (SAC), referred to as I-NC, which is strategically confined within a nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) scaffold. This configuration features a distinctive C-I coordination that optimizes the electronic structure of the nitrogen-adjacent carbon sites. As a result, this arrangement enhances electron transfer from peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to the active sites, particularly the electron-deficient carbon.
