  • Title: Chromium in human milk from American mothers.
    Author: Casey CE, Hambidge KM.
    Journal: Br J Nutr; 1984 Jul; 52(1):73-7. PubMed ID: 6743643.
    Abstract:
    The chromium concentration was determined in 261 samples of breast milk collected by manual expression from forty-five American women. Cr was measured in whole, liquid milk by graphite-furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometry, using the method of standard additions. The mean Cr content of the breast milk samples was 0.30 ng/ml. The range of individual values was 0.06-1.56 ng/ml and did not change significantly with duration of lactation. The Cr content of breast milk from these American women is similar to levels reported recently in milk from Finnish women.
