Iron supplementation: Oral tablets versus intramuscular injection
Article Abstract:
A study is conducted to examine and compare the effect that the two commonly administered forms of iron supplementation, oral tablets and intramuscular injections, have on returning iron stores to a normal range over a short time period. The results show that a course of intramuscular iron injections can quickly raise ferritin levels in iron depleted, but non-anaemic females.

Comparison of erythrocyte and skeletal muscle creatine accumulation following creatine loading
Article Abstract:
A study was conducted to determine the relationship between creatine (Cr) accumulation in human skeletal muscle and erythrocytes following Cr supplementation. It was concluded that erythrocyte response to Cr loading was not a reliable measure of skeletal muscle Cr/Total Cr accumulation.

Creatine supplementation: a comparison of loading and maintenance protocols on creatine uptake by human skeletal muscle
Article Abstract:
Determination of the impact of three different creatine (Cr) loading procedures on skeletal muscle total Cr (TCr) accumulation is done. Evaluation of the effectiveness of 2 maintenance regimes on retaining intramuscular TCr stores is done.
