摘要:
Medium chain triglyceride containing lipid emulsions for the nutrition of liver diseased or septicemic patients are improved by the inclusion in the emulsions of long chain triglycerides. The emulsions may also contain amino acids in proportions desirable for the nutrition of liver diseased patients, as well as carbohydrates, drugs, vitamins and electrolytes.
摘要:
A lipid emulsion is provided comprising water, an emulsifier, and a glyceride oil component. The weight ratio of the emulsifier to glyceride oil is approximately 0.04 to about 0.01. It has been found that intravenous lipid emulsions having a weight ratio of emulsifier to glyceride oil of approximately 0.04 to about 0.01 are more rapidly metabolically utilized.

摘要:
A method for the use of short chain fatty acids containing lipids in clinical nutrition to maintain gastrointestinal integrity and function in conditions where normal short chain fatty acid substrates, provided by bacterial fermentation of carbohydrates, is inadequate due to the clinical condition of the patient. By providing the short chain fatty acid in a lipid form of free fatty acid, triglyceride, diglyceride, monoglyceride, phospholipid, or cholesterol ester one is able to avoid the clinical defect and allow the gastrointestinal tract to continue to maintain its integrity and function. The short chain fatty acids of the present invention can be provided either in enteral preparations or parenteral preparations.The short chain fatty acids can be provided by hydrolysis of a structure such as: ##STR1## wherein R--COO--, R'--COO--, and R"--COO-- represent either the same or different short chain fatty acids.
