| Research Abstract |
Iodine is an essential mineral for human, however excess intake of iodine results in thyroid disorder. Edible blown algae, Konbu or Laminaria sp., are rich in iodine, and only 1 g of dried konbu contains about 2 mg of iodine, which correspond to the tolerable upper intake level. In this study, a new method for reducing iodine in konbu keeping their quality has been developed. By this method, about 90% of iodine could be removed from konbu with a yield of 90%.
