Effect of milk fatty acid (FA) composition during lactation on male pup FA status at weaning: medium-chain FA (MCFA) (a); linoleic acid (LA) (b); α-linolenic acid (ALA) (c); DHA (d); EPA (e); and arachidonic acid (ARA) (f) concentration of erythrocytes of male pups at postnatal day (PN) 28 (n 4–9) compared with milk MCFA, LA, ALA, DHA and ARA at PN13–15 (n 5) of dams fed a control (○), MCFA (Δ), n-3 long-chain PUFA (LCP) (▲), n-3 LCP/MCFA (█) or low-LA (☐) diet between PN2 and PN28. Concentrations are represented as wt% of total FA. Values are means, with standard errors represented by vertical bars.
