title: Study on the composition of casein from individual human milks.
abstract: The study of the chemical composition and of the electrophoretograms of 21 different human whole casein samples confirms the presence of an important heterogeneity between the different samples. A very considerable variability of phosphorus and sugars contents and a correlation between the different sugars components of the casein have been demonstrated statistically. The study of 3 milk samples from the same woman showed a decrease of the amino-sugars of the casein after the birth.
