[Partial parenteral feeding in infants with special reference to the amino acid levels (author's transl)].

12 infants aged between 6 weeks and several months were partially fed for a period of three days parenterally with a 6% amino acid solution adapted to breast milk as well as with an electrolyte solution with 10% glucose. The amino acid levels in the plasma were determined daily in the blood of fasting blood after an infusion period of 20 hours and after an interval of four hours.
