Abstract
The concentration of ceruloplasmin (CP) in human milk was obtained by measuring the increased absorbance of a solution containing apotransfe rrin and Fe2+ at 460 nm after adding the milk. The CP concentrations i n colostrum and mature milk at less than 1 month after parturition wer e 4.45+/-1.23 mg and 4.09 mg+/-1.47 mg/100 mi, respectively, In mature milk after more than one month,the CP concentration had decreased to 1.72+/-0.91 mg/100 mi.
