Beginning in 1999 this survey became continuous. Interviewers collect detailed information about use of dietary supplements during the household interview. Unlike in the past, the current survey does not limit the types of supplements respondents can report. Dietary supplements include vitamins, min

Abstract
We present a rapid and sensitive flow injection method for the determination of arginine in dietary supplements. Detection was based on the chemiluminescence reaction of arginine with alkaline hypobromite. The response is proportional to analyte concentration over the calibration range, from 2.5 Γ 10^β6^ to 1 Γ 10^β4^ M, and a relative standard deviation of 1% was calculated (1 Γ 10^β5^ M, n = 12). Samples required only aqueous dilution prior to analysis, and over 100 samples could be analysed per hour, which is superior to that achieved with conventional colorimetric and enzymatic procedures. The results obtained with the flow injection methodology were concordant with those achieved using highβperformance liquid chromatography employing preβcolumn derivatisation and fluorescence detection.

The arginine electrode is based on a coupled enzymatic system consisting of arginase and urease with an ammonia gas sensor; conditions of immobilization are optimized. Arginine in the range 3 x lo-'-3 x 10e3 M gives a linear potential vs. log (concentration) plot with a response time of 5 min over
