  • Title: Fetal and maternal mineral concentrations in dairy cattle during late pregnancy.
    Author: Wilson GD, Hunter JT, Derrick GH, Aitken WM, Kronfeld DS.
    Journal: J Dairy Sci; 1977 Jun; 60(6):935-41. PubMed ID: 874132.
    Abstract:
    Concentrations of ionic and total calcium, magnesium, and inorganic phosphorus in plasma were determined in bovine fetuses and their mothers within the last month before delivery. Mean fetal concentrations were higher than corresponding maternal contents during the 22 days before delivery. Ionic and total calcium in plasma fell towards term in mother and fetus. Fetal phosphorus was elevated before parturition while maternal phosphorus fell. Maternal magnesium was elevated slightly at parturition.
