Selenium intake, renal and fecal excretion, and retention were determined in 11 breast-fed term infants and in 9 term infants fed with an adapted cow's milk formula. In most cases three-day-balances were determined five times at the age of 2, 5, 8, 12, and 16 weeks. Analytical determination of selenium was by atomic absorption spectroscopy with a selenium hybrid system after wet ashing of samples. The mean breast milk concentrations of selenium show a significant decrease in the course of lactation from 31.0 micrograms/L in the first collecting period to 17.6 micrograms/L in the last one. The two formula milks contained 11.8 and 7.7 micrograms/L. Intake in the breast milk group was higher than in the formula group, whereas absolute renal and fecal excretion were essentially the same. This leads to a higher selenium retention in the breast-fed infants than in the formula-fed infants, where most of the balances are negative. |
