TABLE 3.

Lag time (min) for the peroxidation of LDL isolated before (time zero of day 1) injection of the lipid emulsion and the paired increase in such a lag time at different times after injection of the medium-chain triacylglycerol:long-chain triacylglycerol (MCT:LCT) and MCT:fish oil (MCT:FO) emulsion¹

	Emulsion
Time	MCT:LCT	MCT:FO	P
Day 1, hour 0	72.02 ± 3.10	74.25 ± 1.91	NS
Day 1, hour 1	+0.83 ± 1.10	+9.86 ± 1.66	<0.001
Day 1, hour 8	+5.94 ± 1.55	+16.75 ± 2.14	<0.001
Day 2, hour 0	+6.58 ± 1.34	+13.43 ± 1.86	<0.01
Day 3, hour 0	+4.63 ± 1.60	+10.34 ± 1.99	<0.04
Day 8, hour 0	+5.19 ± 1.52	+5.57 ± 2.12	NS

¹All values are means ± SEMs and refer to 12 individual determinations. P values for differences between results obtained in the MCT:LCT and MCT:FO series were determined by Student's t test.
