Effect of Diet on Fatty Acid Composition of Miniature Swine Adipose Tissue Lipids

G. L. BAKER 1, D. W. ANDERSON 1, and S. A. EASH 1

1 From the Department of Pediatrics, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa 52240

Serial samples of aspirated adipose tissue from miniature pigs either fed artificial diets or sow-fed were analyzed for fatty acid composition during the first 8 weeks of life. Those animals fed a medium-chain triglyceride diet were found to have an increased proportion of saturated fatty acids and greater concentrations of medium-chain fatty acids in adipose tissue lipids.

The newborn pig is similar in some respects to the low birth weight infant and may serve as a model for study of adipose tissue compartment growth.
