The removal of fission products from milk: The use of the baby monkey (Macaca irus) for the nutritional evaluation of milk treated by 2 processes

Abstract: SummaryThe nutritional quality of milk treated by 2 previously described processes for the removal of cationic fission products has been evaluated by the use of the baby monkey (Macaca irus).The first process involves acidification of the milk to pH 5·2–5·3 and, when the treated milk was tested on baby monkeys, it was found to be nutritionally unsatisfactory. This result confirmed those previously obtained with baby pigs, from which it was concluded that the process cannot be recommended for the treatment of m… Show more

“…The milk was treated at 40°C with only a pH reduction from 6.8 to 6.2 and 97% of the I37Cs was removed. Nutritional evaluation of the milks obtained by acidification to pH 5.2 reveals an unexplained lower nutritional value as compared to the untreated milk, while the double-bed process was found nutritionally satisfactory (18). Moreover, regeneration of the resin is time consuming, costly, and laborious; the alternative of electrodialysis through ion-exchange membranes, which is a continuous process, has been proposed (19).…”

“…The removal of these isotopes may be effected by ion-exchange resins, but the procedure causes losses of some vitamins, particularly of thiamin, of which about two-thirds is lost, and these must be restored before use. The nutritional quality of milk treated by passage through a cation-exchange resin (Murthy, Campbell, Mazurovsky & Edmondson, 1962) was found to be adversely affected in tests with baby pigs (Braude, Glascock, Newport & Porter, 1969), but subsequent elaboration of the procedure through the use of a mixed-bed column containing anionic-and cationicexchange resins gave a product that allowed normal growth in young pigs, rats and monkeys (Glascock & Bryant, 1971 ;Cohen, Ashworth, Bryant & Glascock, 1973). …”
