Maternal and line blood tests were taken at conveyance and zinc was assessed by endpoint nitro PAPS color restricting colorimetric technique. Results: It was discovered that line blood zinc levels were low in term SGA babies when contrasted with term AGA babies. There was likewise low maternal zinc levels in the term SGA babies when contrasted with moms of term AGA babies. In AGA 0.431 with the P VALUE of 0.002 demonstrates a noteworthy connection between's maternal zinc and string blood zinc levels.in SGA 0.472 with the P VALUE of 0.001 demonstrates a huge relationship between's maternal zinc and line blood zinc levels. Conclusion: Our investigation reasoned that Maternal and Cord blood zinc level lack can likewise one of the reasons for low birth weight babies.significantcorrelationof maternal zinc and line blood zinc levels are seen in AGA
