Two products (Cow & Gate Growing-Up Milk and Cow & Gate Nutriprem 1) presented a wide range of values which suggested an inhomogeneous distribution of aluminium in these products.
Manufacturers' recommendations for preparing milks were used to estimate the concentration of aluminium in the ready-to-drink product and these ranged from 118 (Aptamil Hungrier) to 756 (Cow & Gate Soya Infant Formula) μg/L at birth and 106 (Hipp Organic Growing Up) to 755 (Cow & Gate Soya Infant Formula) μg/L at 6 months of age.
Manufacturers' recommendations for feeding were used along with the mean concentrations of aluminium to estimate daily exposures to aluminium from each product and these ranged from 64 (Aptamil Hungrier) to 408 (Cow & Gate Soya Infant Formula) μg Al/24 h at birth and 80 (Hipp Organic Follow-On) to 725 (Cow & Gate Soya Infant Formula) μg Al/24 h at 6 months of age (Table 2).
