  • Title: Aluminum in parenteral products: analysis, reduction, and implications for pediatric TPN.
    Author: Rabinow BE, Ericson S, Shelborne T.
    Journal: J Parenter Sci Technol; 1989; 43(3):132-9. PubMed ID: 2499670.
    Abstract:
    Performance and cost of the best available analytical methodology for the measurement of aluminum in parenteral products are presented. Typical levels of aluminum in representative solutions are summarized. A methodical approach to the minimization of aluminum contamination in the manufacturing process is considered in light of aqueous aluminum chemical considerations. Results of long-term clinical follow-up studies of infants maintained on currently manufactured TPN solutions indicate no adverse pathology arising from aluminum.
