Achtergrond van het onderzoek
Prebiotics, galacto-oligosaccharides, are present in breastfeeding and are responsable for more favourable gutflora, and fecal consistancy compared to regular premature formula fed infants. concerns have been raised, that adding prebiotics to premature formula causing looser stools may disturb fluid balance in premature infants.
We speculate that the latter will not happen since the amount of prebiotics added is less than half present in breastfeeding.
Doel van het onderzoek
Prebiotics are present in breastfeeding and thusfar not in premture formula, we presume that adding prebiotics to premature formula, will be well tolarated, result in more loose stools compared to regular premature formula and will be responsable for gut flora which is present in breastfed infants.
