Assessment of iron bioavailability from twenty elite latematuring tropical maize varieties using an in vitro digestion/Caco2 cell model

An in vitro digestion/Caco-2 cell model was used to assess iron bioavailability of twenty elite late-maturing tropical maize varieties grown in three diverse agroecologies in West and Central Africa (WCA). Kernel-iron concentration of the varieties, averaged across locations, varied from 19.2 to 24....
