Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the effects of fish oil supplementation in
pregnancy on maternal erythrocyte fatty acid composition at different stages of pregnancy …

We aimed to investigate the effects of fish oil (FO) supplementation to pregnant women on
the maternal and fetal fatty acid profile in plasma and erythrocyte phospholipids (PL) and to …

This study was performed to investigate whether supplementation of docosahexaenoic acid
(DHA) and arachidonic acid (AA) to pregnant women would enhance their DHA levels, both …

To examine the effect of fish oil supplementation on the fatty acid (FA) composition of human
milk and maternal and infant erythrocytes, five lactating women were supplemented with 6 g …

OBJECTIVES:: We investigated the relationship between selected maternal erythrocyte
omega-3 and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and plasma lipids in early …

Healthy pregnant women (n 23) were supplemented with fish-oil capsules (2· 7 g n-3
polyunsaturated fatty acids/d) from the 30th week of gestation until delivery. Subjects in a …

Aim: To assess the modifications of the main fatty acids (FA) in plasma and red blood cells
during pregnancy. Methods: A longitudinal study of 36 normal pregnant women was carried …

It is well established that marine n-3 fatty acids measured in erythrocyte phospholipids of
non-pregnant subjects reflect the subjects intake of these fatty acids. In 135 pregnant women …

Background: Arachidonic (ARA), eicosapentaenoic (EPA), and docosahexaenoic (DHA)
acids are important in membrane glycerophospholipids. Higher maternal blood ARA, EPA …

Background: Although the pattern of the essential fatty acids (EFAs) changes considerably
from week 10 of pregnancy to term, no information is available on changes in EFA …
