The copper level in the blood serum of umbilical cord of the newborn infants was also determined. The copper levels were significantly elevated in both pregnant groups as compared to the non-pregnant group.

A significant correlation was found between the serum copper level of mothers and the cord blood in both, private and public groups. https://ijph.tums.ac.ir/index.php/ijph/article/view/2695 |
