McMahon FG. Comparison of the effect of Fe 3-specific (N, N-dihydroxyethylglycine), versenol, and calcium disodium versenate on urinary iron excretion in a patient with hemochromatosis. J Lab Clin Med. 1956; 48:589-602. (CA51:3027c) [Ca ethylenediaminetetraacetate enhanced urinary Fe excretion 2-fold when given intravenously. Versenol, orally given, produced a 2-fold increase in Fe excretion; given intravenously produced more than a 4-fold increase. N,N-Dihydroxyethylglycine by mouth had little effect on Fe excretion; intravenously it approx. doubled urinary Fe excretion. Phlebotomy remained the treatment of choice.
