Fatty acid formula supplementation and neuromotor development in rhesus monkey neonates.

abstract：:Taurine is an essential amino acid during fetal life and appears to be vital for the growth of the fetus and for the development of the CNS. In intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), fetal plasma concentrations of taurine are reduced, and we tested the hypothesis that this is caused by altered placental transport of ...
