The Study on concentrations of Plasma Zinc and Copper of Nonpregnant and Pregnant in Korea
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
Plasma concentration of zinc and copper were measured in 59 non-pregnant women and 105 pregnant women(12 : early pregant 93 ; late pregnant) to estimate and compared both groups and to detect the effect iron supplementation on the plasma zinc and
copper
concentrations in the pregant women.
The mean plasma zinc concentration of the early pregnant group was not significantly different with those of the non-pregnant group. But in contrast, the mean plasma zinc concentration of the late pregnant group was significantly lower than those
of the
non-pregnant and early pregnant group.
Mean plasma copper concentrations were significantly elevated in early pregnant group and doubled in late pregnant compared to non-pregnant.
In Fe supplemented group. It appeared that Fe supplementation had effects on the decreased of plasma zinc concentrations in pregnancy.
