Maternal-fetal transfer of free fatty acids during late gestation in the rat
Biomedica Biochimica Acta
|January 1, 1983
The maternal-fetal transfer of free fatty acids during late gestation in the rat has been investigated. The isotopic tracer technique and a mathematical model were used. From the results the conclusion can be drawn that the fetus from day 15 to 19 of pregnancy derives only 10% of the fetal fatty acids from the maternal circulation.
