Abalone is one of the most valuable marine products found in East Asia because it is rich in nutritious substances including iodine. In this study, the in vitro dialyzability approach was used to assess the bio‐available iodine species in abalone. Iodide, iodate, 3‐iodo‐L‐tyrosine (MIT), and 3,5‐diiodo‐L‐tyrosine (DIT) were separated by high‐performance liquid chromatography hyphenated with inductively coupled plasma‐mass spectrometry (HPLC‐ICP‐MS). To assure the consistency, reliability, and accuracy of the data, the method was validated. Comparison of the total iodine in abalone muscle and viscera indicated that abalone muscle showed greater digestion/absorption efficiency than abalone viscera (digestion efficiency: 68.13 ± 2.59% and 47.88 ± 5.76% and absorption efficiency: 59.78 ± 2.93% and 35.12 ± 1.43% for abalone viscera and muscle, respectively). However, evaluation of the sum of the analyzed iodine species targeted in this study by HPLC‐ICP‐MS indicated that abalone muscle showed lower digestion efficiency and similar absorption efficiency compared to that of abalone viscera (digestion efficiency: 35.52 ± 5.41% and 28.84 ± 1.83%; absorption efficiency: 23.56 ± 4.38% and 27.56 ± 1.51% for abalone viscera and muscle, respectively). The main forms of iodine detected in abalone muscle were iodide and MIT, whereas iodide was the major form in abalone viscera. Practical Application The bio‐available iodine in abalone was quantified via an in vitro method employing HPLC‐ICP‐MS. The results of this study indicated that abalone is feasible as a new iodine source and may prospectively find application in iodine‐fortified foods.
