The effect of pasteurization on trace elements in donor breast milk

OBJECTIVE: Premature infants often receive pasteurized donor human milk when mothers are unable to provide their own milk. This study aims to establish the effect of the pasteurization process on a range of trace elements in donor milk. STUDY DESIGN: Breast milk was collected from 16 mothers donatin...

RJ Pediatrics OBJECTIVE: Premature infants often receive pasteurized donor human milk when mothers are unable to provide their own milk.

STUDY DESIGN: Breast milk was collected from 16 mothers donating to the milk bank at the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital.
