*Iodide trapping is the process by which Iodide molecules (I-) are concentrated in the colloid at a level up to 250x greater than the plasma level.

*The Na+/I- symport in the basal membrane of the follicular cells moves the iodine from the plasma, into the cell. From here is is transported into the colloid.
