Abstract
Dipeptides have been reported to be more efficiently absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract than free amino acids. The objective of this study was to compare prospectively a peptide enteral formula (PEF) with a standard enteral formula (SEF) for tolerance and nutritional outcome in acutely injured, hypoalbuminemic (Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition16:20-24, 1992)Keywords
