Effect of parenteral lipids on infant serum phospholipids and LCPUFAs
lIntravenous lipid emulsions, ≤28
EXTREMELY LOW BIRTH WEIGHT INFANT, ROBINSON
The strikingly different patterns observed for relative (mol%) and absolute (μmol lIntravenous lipid emulsions and fat-soluble vitamin supplements are emulsified with egg yolk phospholipids that contain some DHA and AA [As seen over the whole study period, infants on high parenteral lipids displayed lower relative levels of both DHA and AA. Robinson et al. showed that red blood cell (RBC) DHA, but not AA, decreased more in extremely low birth weight infants with prolonged exposure (>28 days) to a lipid emulsion based on soybean oil than in infants with shorter exposure (≤28 days) [
