ABSTRACT
Malaria is an endemic parasitic disease that prevails particularly in warm tropical regions of the world.
Micronutrient malnutrition such as vitamin A and iron deficiencies which is a public health problem in Nigeria. It is usually highly prevalent in malaria endemic areas. Characterizing the relationship between micronutrient status (vitamin A and Zinc) and malaria infection among children in Okolobiri town (Nigeria), serum levels of zinc, and Vitamin A, were assayed in a total of 144 Nigerian children ( 60 controls and 84 malaria patients infected by plasmodium falciparum) less than six years old by colorimetric and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) techniques respectively showed a significantly lower vitamin A (P
