Milk levels of iron, the iron-binding protein lactoferrin, percentage of iron in this protein have been estimated in 288 milk samples of normal lactating women. Milk iron concentrations varied within the first day and declined with time of lactation. Similar patterns of change were characteristic for lactoferrin which was highest in milk during the 1st month of lactation but steadily fell by the end of lactation. Iron percentage in lactoferrin remained low during one year of lactation, suggesting a bacteriostatic function of milk lactoferrin.
已对288份正常哺乳期妇女的乳汁样本中的铁含量、铁结合蛋白乳铁蛋白水平及其在该蛋白中的铁含量百分比进行了估算。乳汁中铁的浓度在产后第一天内有所变化，并随哺乳期的延长而下降。乳铁蛋白也呈现出类似的变化模式，在哺乳期的第一个月乳汁中含量最高，但在哺乳期结束时稳步下降。在一年的哺乳期内，乳铁蛋白中的铁含量百分比一直较低，这表明乳汁中的乳铁蛋白具有抑菌功能。
