Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the use of wheat dietary fibre preparations and soy protein isolate as iodine salt carriers in the production of processed meats. The effect of thermal processing (steaming and roasting) and storage conditions on changes in the iodine content in meat products fortified with iodine using the above mentioned preparations and table salt was studied. The stability of two most popular iodine compounds used to fortify foodstuffs, i.e. potassium iodide (KI) and potassium iodate (KIO3) were also compared.
