Medium-chain triglycerides

2006-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) comprise saturated fatty acids with 6-10 carbons. Besides synthetic medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) oils there are natural sources, like coconut oil and dairy fat. Compared with long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs), the chemical and physical properties of MCFAs show substantial metabolic differences. MCFAs do not require binding to proteins such as fatty-acid binding protein, fatty acid...
