To assess the molybdenum supply and requirements of preterm infants, Mo concentration was determined in milk from mothers of 6 term and 11 preterm newborns; no difference was found between fore- and hindmilk and no diurnal variations were found during 24-h collections. Respective values (means +/- SD) of term and preterm milks were 10.2 +/- 3.7 and 4.0 +/- 3.7 micrograms/L (106.2 +/- 38.5 and 41.7 +/- 38.5 nmol/L) at 3-5 d of lactation, 4.8 +/- 3.9 and 3.7 +/- 3.8 micrograms/L (50.0 +/- 4.6 and 38.5 +/- 39.6 nmol/L) at 7-10 d, 1.5 +/- 1.4 and 1.4 +/- 0.9 micrograms/L (15.6 +/- 14.6 and 14.6 +/- 9.6 nmol/L) at 14 d, 2.6 +/- 2.2 and 1.9 +/- 1.4 micrograms/L (27.1 +/- 22.9 and 19.8 +/- 14.6 nmol/L) at 1 mo, and 0.2 and 1.2 +/- 0.5 micrograms/L (2.1 and 12.5 +/- 5.2 nmol/L) at 2 mo. A statistical difference was found between term and preterm milk at 3-5 d of lactation. During lactation significant changes were found between the periods 3-5 d and 7-10 d, 14 d, 1 mo (p less than 0.01) and 2 mo (p less than 0.05) of lactation and between 7-10 d and 14 d (p less than 0.05). According to the requirements of the preterm infant, a supplementation of 2-3 micrograms.kg-1.d-1 by enteral route is suggested.

D007774 Lactation The processes of milk secretion by the maternal MAMMARY GLANDS after PARTURITION. The proliferation of the mammary glandular tissue, milk synthesis, and milk expulsion or let down are regulated by the interactions of several hormones including ESTRADIOL; PROGESTERONE; PROLACTIN; and OXYTOCIN.
