The purpose of this study was to measure the fluoride concentrations in ready-to-eat infant food, and to determine if significant differences exist among flavors and brands.
One hundred fifty samples of 5 infant food flavors from an organic infant food manufacturer and the largest infant food manufacturer were compared using the Taves microdiffusion method. Total fluoride ingestion per serving was calculated based on average amounts consumed and container size of individual products.
Fluoride concentrations ranged from 0.01 to 0.60 ppm (mean = 0.170 +/- 0.125 [SD] ppm) for all samples, with both the highest and lowest fluoride concentrations found in processed banana infant food (Gerber, mean = 0320 +/- 0.167 ppm; Earth's Best, mean = 0.030 +/- 0.013 ppm). Significant differences were noted when comparing the 2 infant food manufacturers for all flavors.
The fluoride concentrations in ready-to-eat infant food varied among the 5 flavors tested. All infant foods tested were found to provide less fluoride than the Institute of Medicine tolerable upper daily intake. No trends in fluoride concentrations for different flavors or brands were noted. Fluoride in infant foods should be considered when determining total fluoride intake.
本研究旨在测量即食婴儿食品中的氟化物浓度，并确定不同口味和品牌之间是否存在显著差异。
使用塔维斯微量扩散法对来自一家有机婴儿食品制造商和最大婴儿食品制造商的5种婴儿食品口味的150个样本进行比较。根据每种产品的平均食用量和容器大小计算每份食品的总氟摄入量。
所有样本的氟化物浓度范围为0.01至0.60 ppm（平均值 = 0.170 +/- 0.125 [标准差] ppm），加工香蕉婴儿食品（嘉宝，平均值 = 0.320 +/- 0.167 ppm；地球最好，平均值 = 0.030 +/- 0.013 ppm）中氟化物浓度最高和最低。比较两家婴儿食品制造商的所有口味时发现存在显著差异。
在所测试的5种口味中，即食婴儿食品中的氟化物浓度各不相同。所有测试的婴儿食品提供的氟化物均低于医学研究所可耐受的每日摄入量上限。未发现不同口味或品牌的氟化物浓度趋势。确定总氟摄入量时应考虑婴儿食品中的氟化物。
