A mixture of amino acids designed to maintain normal plasma amino acid concentrations of
infants and children requiring parenteral nutrition was evaluated in 40 infants and children …

In 42 low-birth-weight infants (< 1,200 gm), we have compared the effects of intravenous
nutrition supplement versus conventional feedings on growth, morbidity, mortality, and …

To evaluate the influence of amino acid preparations on the metabolic response of
parenterally fed immature newborn infants, nitrogen retention and plasma amino acid …

Tyrosine and cyst (e) ine are amino acids that are thought to be essential for preterm
neonates. These amino acids have low stability (cyst (e) ine) or low solubility (tyrosine) and …

Two neonatal intravenous amino acid solutions (Aminosyn-PF and Troph-Amine) were
compared in 44 preterm infants. The rate of weight gain, nitrogen balance, and changes in …

Preprandial plasma and urine amino acid concentrations were measured in 28 growing,
very low birth weight, appropriate-for-gestational-age infants randomly assigned to either …

The composition of nutrient mixtures for the low birth weight infant is a matter of considerable
concern, and questions have been raised about the adequacy of the cystine and tyrosine …

To determine whether the general reluctance to begin amino acid administration to preterm
infants from birth onward might lead to loss of lean body mass and impairment of growth, we …

Modern infant formulas contain sufficient indispensable as well as dispensable amino acids
to support normal growth of both term and preterm infants. However, current parenteral and …
