Comparison of the lipid composition of breast milk from mothers of term and preterm infants

Abstract: Milk was collected from mothers of 18 very premature (26 to 30 wk gestation age), 28 premature (31 to 36 wk), and six term (37 + wk) infants on day 2 to 3 (colostrum), and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 wk postpartum. Fat content for 154 milk samples was 2.80 g/dl gravimetrically and 2.66 g/dl by quantitative thin-layer chromatography. Fat content increased during lactation, whereas phospholipids and cholesterol declined. Concentrations of medium-chain fatty acids increased from colostrum to mature milk and were highest i… Show more

“…But the level of PLs was lower in the PT colostrum, which does not agree with what was stated by Bitman et al (1983). On the other hand, the mean lipid content of PT-and FT-colostrum was, to some extent, higher (2.6 and 3.0 g/100 ml, respectively) than that reported by Ehrenkranz et al (1984) and Bitman et al (1983) for human PT and FT-colostrum (2.0 and 2.5 g/100 ml, respectively). It is worth noting that breast milk lipid content varies according to the dietary profile.…”

“…O conteúdo total de lipídeos e a composição de ácidos graxos do leite humano são variáveis, como pode ser comprovado em diversos estudos 2,[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] . Mandel et al 16 estimaram o conteúdo de gordura do leite humano pelo método do crematócrito, que consiste na mensuração das quantidades de creme e de soro após a centrifugação de capilares contendo uma alíquota de leite humano.…”

“…However, polyunsaturated acids amounts in the human milk depend on their ingestion by mothers, so that they may be liberated by the mammary glands (Martinez, 1991;Duchen and Bjorksten, 2001). Jensen (1978) reported that colostrum is richer than milk in unsaturated fatty acids, which are also found in higher amounts in preterm children's mother's colostrums (Bitman et al, 1983). Milk from strictly vegetarian women shows around 1/3 of the DHA amount found in milk from nonvegetarian women and lower seafood consumption also was associated with higher rates of postpartum depression.…”
