COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR NUTRIENT DELIVERY

摘要

The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for delivering nutrients to subjects requiring small-volume nutritional support, such as preterm infants. The compositions may comprise an emulsion of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid (ARA). The nutritional compositions are useful, for example, in correcting nutritional deficiencies by increasing a subject's intake of nutrients, such as ?-3 or ?-6 long-chain polyunsaturated acids. The nutritional compositions are suitable for enteral delivery as a nutritional supplement or for oral delivery as a human milk or infant formula fortifier.
