Abstract

1. Serum prealbumin, transferrin and iron concentrations were measured in ninety-two north Cameroonian children under 5 years of age. The results were grouped according to the blood haemoglobin concentration range in order to show the interactions of anaemia with prealbumin and transferrin concentrations.
