Abstract

We have studied growing conditions of thirty full term infants and fifteen premature infants. Fed on Viman milk. The body weight, height, head & chest circumferences of above babies were measured every fifteen days repeatedly for six months after birth. Hemoglobin and serum electrophoresis were also measured. The growth values of fullterm infants did not reveal any significant differences from Korean normal babies fed on other milk products. Wheras those on tested premature infants revealed somewhat rapid growth & lesser degree of initial weight loss. Serum electrophoresis & haemoglobin were within normal limits.
