Plasma amino acid concentrations in parenterally fed preterm infants.
One hundred and nine sick preterm infants were studied, and the data obtained show that hyperphenylalaninaemia is an extremely rare occurrence as long as an adequate source of energy is provided. High concentrations of the other aromatic amino acid (tyrosine) on the other hand, were often encountered and seem to be due to immaturity of an isolated hepatic enzyme as there was no correlation betw...
متن کاملComparison of egg-yolk protein hydrolysate and soyabean protein hydrolysate in terms of nitrogen utilization.
Egg-yolk protein hydrolysate (YPp) is an alternative protein source in formulas for infants with intolerance to cow's milk or soyabean protein, or for patients with intestinal disorders. However, the nutritional value of YPp has never been investigated. YPp was prepared by enzymic hydrolysis of delipidated yolk protein, which led to an average peptide length of 2.6 residues. Three experiments w...
متن کاملIngestion of protein hydrolysate and amino acid-carbohydrate mixtures increases postexercise plasma insulin responses in men.
To optimize the postexercise insulin response and to increase plasma amino acid availability, we studied postexercise insulin levels after the ingestion of carbohydrate and wheat protein hydrolysate with and without free leucine and phenylalanine. After an overnight fast, eight male cyclists visited our laboratory on five occasions, during which a control drink and two different beverage compos...
متن کاملThyroid dysfunction in very low birth weight preterm infants
PURPOSE Thyroid dysfunction is common in preterm infants. Congenital hypothyroidism causes neurodevelopmental impairment, which is preventable if properly treated. This study was conducted to describe the characteristics of thyroid dysfunction in very low birth weight infants (VLBWIs), evaluate risk factors of hypothyroidism, and suggest the reassessment of thyroid function with an initially no...
متن کاملPlasma amino acids in small preterm infants fed on human milk or formula.
Plasma amino acids were measured in 35 preterm infants, of whom 11 weighed less than 1000 g and 24 weighed between 1000 g and 1500 g at the time of sampling. Repeat samples were obtained in 18 at least seven days later. Seventeen infants were fed with preterm formula milk and 18 with expressed maternal breast milk at one to two hourly intervals during the study period. Formula fed infants gaine...
