Abstract		Iron is found in virtually all cells of the human body and has different homeostatic functions. As cells can not readily extract it from insoluble oxydes, the body developed mechanisms to gather iron from food and to store it, but no mechanisms for its active excretion in case of iron overload. In this paper beside mechanisms of iron absorption, transport and its preservation, also necessary laboratory investigations for iron deficiency are represented.
Summary		Železo se pri človeku nahaja v vseh celicah, kjer vzdržuje številne pomembne homeostatske mehanizme. Ker ga celice le stežka pridobijo iz netopnih oksidov, je organizem razvil številne mehanizme za njegovo absorpcijo, shranjevanje in uporabo iz rezerv, medtem ko pravih mehanizmov za izločanje ob preobremenitvi ni znanih. Poleg mehanizmov pridobivanja, prenosa in shranjevanja železa v telesu, so predstavljene potrebne laboratorijske preiskave za ugotavljanje pomanjkanja železa.
