In solutions protected from light, MDA concentrations were low and were close to the serum MDA concentrations observed in orally fed neonates. Administration of all-in-one admixtures containing lipids in ambient lighting results in intravenous infusion of high levels of MDA which may present an additional source of morbidity in immature infants. This study confirms the need to protect parenteral admixtures from light.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
