Determinants of fatty acid content and composition of human milk fed to infants born weighing <1250 g

Determinants of fatty acid content and composition of human milk fed to infants born weighing <1250 g

Infants born at very low birth weight (VLBW) are vulnerable to deficits in fatty acids (FAs) but little is known of factors that influence the intakes or composition of their human milk feeds. We aimed to identify sources of variability in the fat composition of human milk fed to VLBW infants and ex...

Zusammenfassung:Infants born at very low birth weight (VLBW) are vulnerable to deficits in fatty acids (FAs) but little is known of factors that influence the intakes or composition of their human milk feeds. We aimed to identify sources of variability in the fat composition of human milk fed to VLBW infants and examine the impact of milk source (mother’s own or donor) on fat and FA intakes. Serial samples of mother’s milk (n = 476) and donor milk (n = 53) fed to infants born weighing
