In a study by Yeung et al (2005) rats received EDTA-FeNa at a level of 1200 mg Fe per kg diet for 39 days. Taking into account a consumption of ca. 25 g per day, and a mean weight of ca. 250 g during the study, rats received 30 mg Fe per day or 120 mg Fe per kg bw per day. This corresponds to: 421/56 x 120 =900 mg EDTA-FeNa.3H2O per kg bw/day. At this level no changes in growth rate were seen. If this study would be used to set a DNEL (But this has not been done due to lack of reporting other parameters than growth rate), the DNEL would be ca. 10 times higher. This would also apply to EDTA-FeNH4(NH4)OH.
