Über den Calcium-, Kalium- und Natriumgehalt der Frauenmilch

Summary

With help of flamephotometric method the milk examples of 39 women were analized on their calcium, potassium and sodium contence.

Each 25 milk experiments were made on colostrum and transitional milk, 14 on mature milk.

During birth-bed the calcium contence rises from 26,1 mg% (colostrum) to 32,0 mg% (transitional milk). The calcium contence of mature milk (27,1 mg%) is likely to be the same as colostrum.

Also potassium contence reaches in transitional milk with 69,2 mg% the top power. Potassium contence of colostrum (58,1 mg%) and mature milk (55,3 mg%) underlies this value significantly.

Sodium contence drops from colostrum to mature milk. 95,6 mg%-53,6 mg%-18,9 mg% is the scala for the different milk qualities.
