For 11 days, an odd-numbered medium-chain triglyceride (trinonanoin, C9TG)/long-chain triglyceride (LCT) emulsion was given parenterally to rabbits, providing 46.5% of total energy. In comparison with LCT or MCT/LCT fat emulsions, no negative effects on organ weights and liver lipid concentrations

To investigate the metabolic effects of intravenously administered odd-numbered medium-chain triglycerides in healthy non-stressed animals, trinonanoin/long-chain triglyceride (LCT) (7/3) fat emulsions were given in a high dose (46.5% energy) to rabbits (n = 8) for 11 days within a total

Odd-numbered medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) might combine the advantages of "usual" MCTs applied in clinical nutrition with lower ketogenic action and the release of three carbon units. To test subacute toxicity, trinonanoin/long-chain triglyceride (LCT) (7/3 wt/wt) fat emulsions were given to

Medium-chain odd carbon fats have been reported to be ketogenic as have medium-chain triglycerides (MCT). Such an odd carbon fat, tripelargonin, was compared to MCT for its effect on ketogenic and glucogenic intermediates when fed as a part of a

Premature newborn infants are born with limited stores of glycogen and fat. Energy, such as medium-chain triglycerides (MCT), which can spare the use of body protein as metabolic energy, may be beneficial. This study compares MCT containing C8, C9, or
