Abstract |
We evaluated plasma sulfur amino acid concentrations in children with short gut syndrome receiving home parenteral nutrition (n = 6). Cysteine HCl addition to solutions formulated with a pediatric amino acid product will increase plasma taurine concentrations to within the normal reference range. (J Pediatr 1999;134:358-61)
