The content of elements in infant formulas and drinks against mineral requirements of children.
[phenylketonuria]
The
present
study
aimed
at
analysing
the
content
of
fluorine
(
F
)
,
calcium
(
Ca
)
,
magnesium
(
Mg
)
,
iron
(
Fe
)
and
zinc
(
Zn
)
in
the
drinks
for
children
and
infant
formulas
,
a
popular
supplement
or
substitute
for
breast
milk
produced
from
cow
milk
on
an
industrial
scale
.
Ca
,
Mg
,
Zn
and
Fe
concentrations
were
determined
using
atomic
absorption
spectrophotometer
,
while
F
levels
using
a
potentiometric
method
.
F
levels
in
the
examined
formula
samples
increased
with
the
intended
age
range
,
until
the
intended
age
of
1
Â
year
,
and
then
decreased
.
A
lower
content
of
Ca
,
Mg
and
Zn
was
observed
in
formulas
intended
for
children
<
1
Â
year
of
age
and
higher
for
older
children
.
Fe
content
increased
with
the
age
range
.
A
statistically
significant
higher
content
of
Ca
,
Mg
,
Zn
and
Fe
in
samples
intended
for
children
with
phenylketonuria
in
comparison
to
those
intended
for
healthy
children
or
children
with
food
allergies
was
noted
.
The
content
of
the
analysed
elements
in
juices
and
nectars
showed
the
highest
contents
in
products
intended
for
infants
(
under
6
Â
months
of
age
)
.
The
lowest
levels
of
elements
tested
were
found
in
drinks
for
children
over
6
Â
months
of
age
.
In
conclusion
,
the
concentrations
of
the
examined
elements
in
infant
formulas
and
juices
for
children
were
decidedly
greater
than
the
standards
for
the
individual
age
groups
.
Although
the
absorption
of
these
elements
from
artificial
products
is
far
lower
than
from
breast
milk
,
there
is
still
the
fear
of
consequences
of
excessive
concentrations
of
these
minerals
.
