DictionarySeetriglyceridemedium-chain triglycerides
medium-chain triglyceridesTriglycerides with 8 to 10 carbon atoms. They are absorbed differently from long chain fatty acids (i.e., via the portal vein through the liver rather than as chylomicrons transported via the lymphatics) and therefore, have been used to treat malabsorption. See also: triglyceride |
