Lipid Emulsion; MCT LCT Fish Oil Omega-3 Fatty Acid Lipid-Based Emulsion;
NCIt definition : A nutritional lipid emulsion consisting of coconut oil-derived medium chain triglycerides
(MCTs), soybean oil-derived long chain triglycerides (LCT), and the fish oil-derived
polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids. This lipid emulsion supplies essential fatty
acids and calories for energy. Omega-3 fatty acids may decrease the production of
certain pro-inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin 1 (IL-1), Il-6 and tumor
necrosis factor (TNF). The MCTs mainly provide calories for energy. In addition to
LCTs, MCTs, and omega-3 fatty acids, this lipid emulsion contains egg yolk lecithin,
glycerol, and the antioxidant alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E).;
