A new routine infant formula has been developed and clinically tested. The clinical study reported here involved 337 normal newborns cared for by six private pediatric group practices. Infants were examined regularly by the investigators until six months of age. Serum biochemistries, hematology, and growth and tolerance variables were compared to infants fed control formulas and to reported values for breast-fed infants. This new formulation compared favorably, in all areas studied here, to controls and previously reported values.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
