Median brain tissue levels of select fatty acids in the n-3 and n-6 pathways, expressed as mol% (± IQR)

Group	AA, 20:4,n-6	DHA, 22:6,n-3	EPA, 20:5,n-3
Birth	11.6 ± 0.2^a	7.2 ± 0.8^a	0.1 ± 0.03^a
Intralipid	12.0 ± 0.3^a	8.1 ± 0.5^a	0.06 ± 0.05^b
CLS1	11.9 ± 0.3^a	9.7 ± 0.5^b	0.05 ± 0.01^b
CLS2	12.0 ± 0.0^a	9.7 ± 0.2^b	0.06 ± 0.01^ab

Medians in a column for each group without a common letter differ, P < 0.05.

AA, arachidonic acid; DHA, docosahexaenoic acid; EPA, eicosapentaenoic acid; IQR, interquartile range
