Özet

Aim: We aimed to compare the macronutrient, antioxidant, insulin like growth factor 1 content of breast milk obtained from mothers of moderately premature and full-term infants. Materials and Methods: In this prospective study mature breast milk samples were collected and frozen from mothers of moderately premature (n=31, gestational age 32.16 +/- 2.42 weeks) and full term (n=14) infants who were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit. Frozen milk samples were thawed and macroonutrients (triglycerides, glucose, cholesterol, protein), antioxidants (TEAC: Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity, FRAP: ferric reducing ability of plasma, TOA: total antioxidant activity), TBARS (ThioBarbituric Acid Reactive Substances) and insulin like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) levels were analysed. Results: Macronutrient content, antioxidant properties, oxidative status and IGF-1 content of preterm and term breast milk were found similar. None of these parameters were related to necrotizing enterocolitis or achievement of total enteral feeds. Conclusion: The donor milk obtained from mothers of term infants may be safely used for the moderately preterm infants cared in NICUs since both groups have similar breast milk properties.
