Table 3. Spearman’s rank correlations of the concentration of TNC and anti-HIV activity in mature milk of HIV infected and uninfected women.

Breast milk of uninfected women

[TNC] vs. ID50, 2–4wks r = 0.40 p = 0.25
Virus: C.DU156.12 (tier 2)
[TNC] vs. ID50, > 4wks r = 0.65 p = 0.006
Virus: C.DU156.12 (tier 2)
[Lactoferrin] vs. ID50, > 4wks r = 0.58 p = 0.02
Virus: C.DU156.12 (tier 2)
[MUC-1] vs. ID50, > 4wks r = 0.84 p = 0.002
