Polymorphisms of SLC30A2 and selected perinatal factors associated with low milk zinc in Chinese breastfeeding women.

Early human development - 1 Aug 2012

Qian Linxi, Wang Bei, Tang Ning, Zhang Weili, Cai Wei

Abstract excerpt

The variability of breast-milk zinc concentration is high among breastfeeding women, and it is known to be independent of dietary zinc intake. As a result, transient neonatal zinc deficiency is not rare in the breastfed infants due to low milk zinc concentration in their breastfeeding mothers. Up to now, SLC30A2 has been documented the only candidate gene showing correlation with human milk zinc trait. In this...
