Abstract |
Free fatty acids, lipase activy and β-glucuronidase activity were measured in samples of breast
milk collected from mothers of infants with and without breast milk jaundice.
The free fatty acids, lipase and β-glucuronidase values in the breast milk from mothers with
jaundiced infants were 7.5 ±6.5 mM/L, 5.3 ±3.2 mM/min/ml and 14.6 ±9.6 nM/min/ml respectively.
In the group of mothers of infants without jaundice, free fatty acids, lipase and β-glucuronidase
values were 6.9±6.4 mM/L, 5.5±3.1 mM/min/ml and 17.8±11.6 nM/min/ml respectively.
Above findings showed no statistically signficant differences between jaundiced infants and normal
infants.
These results suggest that free fatty acids, lipase and β-glucuronidase in breast milk are not
responsible for the development of breast milk jaundice. |
