Oleic and palmitic acids at concentrations above 1.1 mg percent (40 micrometer) are capable of displacing bilirubin from the serum albumin-bilirubin conjugates. The release of bilirubin is also demonstrated by thin layer gel chromatography. Since both oleate and palmitate constitute the major fatty acids in breast milk, the results may indicate that the development of jaundice in breast-fed infants could result at least in part from elevated levels of free fatty acids present in the blood serum of these neonates.
浓度高于1.1毫克百分比（40微米）的油酸和棕榈酸能够从血清白蛋白 - 胆红素结合物中置换出胆红素。薄层凝胶色谱法也证实了胆红素的释放。由于油酸和棕榈酸都是母乳中的主要脂肪酸，这些结果可能表明，母乳喂养婴儿黄疸的发生至少部分是由于这些新生儿血清中游离脂肪酸水平升高所致。
