Concentrations of the essential elements Zn and Fe and potentially toxic elements Pb and Cd in different milk formula samples and cereal based food with milk were measured, primarily to assess whether the intake comply with recommended desired levels for essential and permissible levels for toxic elements. The geometric mean concentrations of Pb, Cd, Fe and Zn in different types of  based milk formula (birth – 6 month)  were found to vary from 0.117 to 0.297, 0.00, 51.13 to 70.50 and 75.61 to 95.51mg/kg, while the same in follow up formula (6-12 month)  had values from 0.0483 to 0.6753, 0.000 to 0.003, 63.586 to 83.516 and 68.216 to130.506mg/kg, and from 0.704 to 1.737, 0.000 to 0.0026, 58.303 to 118.837and 54.496 to 72.176mg/kg, in white based food with milk but ranged from 1.383 to 1.490, 0.00, 53.313 to 73.543 and 47.623 to 75.283mg/kg, in rice based food with milk for infant  respectively. The concentration of Cd was found to be very low 0.0013 to 0.003 mg/kg and fairly constant in all samples test. The lead content in based milk infant formula was observed to be the lowest even in comparison with rice based food with milk for infant which recorded high concentration of this element. The based milk infant formula and rice based food with milk could not show any amount of toxic element Cd but high concentrations of essential Fe and Zn elements were found in white based food with milk for infant and follow up infant milk formula. The daily intake of Pb, Cd, Fe and Zn by infants through milk formula and infant cereals formula with milk marketed in Assiut city have also been estimated. The daily intake level of toxic element (Pb) for infants through most infant formulae was high than recommended tolerable levels but (Cd) was in the recommended limits.
