Objective: To characterize the macronutrient, energy, and zinc composition of pasteurized donor human milk pools and evaluate how composition varies based on pooling practices and "time postpartum" (ie, elapsed time from parturition to expression date) of individual milk donations.

Study Design: The Mothers' Milk Bank (Arvada, Colorado) donated 128 donor human milk pools. Caloric density was assessed via mid-infrared spectroscopy, and zinc concentration was measured by atomic absorption spectroscopy.

Non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis (NLCH) is a histiocyte disorder comprised of dermal dendritic histiocytes with a characteristic staining pattern. Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a subset of NLCH in which patients experience bone pain with corresponding changes on imaging. In addition, these patients show other evidence of systemic involvement, which can also be identified with imaging.
