Abstract：Objective: To understand the status of the nutrition of the five microelements with the whole blood of juveniles in Rui’an so as to provide basis for the nutrition improvement strategies of this group of people. Methods: The flame atomic absorption method was taken to test the five kinds of elements within the venous bloods of the 3 561 juveniles and analyze the contents of the five kinds of elements in different age phases and between different genders. Results: The contents of copper and calcium within the whole blood of juveniles tend to descend with the growth of ages while those of zinc and iron tend to ascend, but the content of magnesium tends to be remaining stable. The differences of the contents of zinc, calcium and iron in different age phases had all of statistical meaning (P<0.05); differences exist in the contents in some age phases (P<0.05); and it was quite common that among the five kinds of elements lack of zinc and iron exists in various age phases, especially in the babyhood and infancy when the lack rate of zinc reached 31.3% and 26.1% respectively, the lack rates of iron were 42.7% and 26.3% respectively; while in the babyhood and infancy there was over-nutrition of calcium at the rates of 4.1% and 6.3% respectively. Conclusion: The distribution levels of copper and magnesium in the venous blood of juveniles in Rui’an tends to be reasonable, and lacked zinc and iron to different degrees exists, while over-nutrition of calcium exists in the babyhood and infancy, so health care instructions on the lacking of zinc and iron should be intensified and blind supplement of calcium should be prevented.
