Abstract
A nutrient infusion preparation comprises a fat emulsion essentially consisting of fat particles having a mean particle size of 0.003 to 0.100 &mgr;m and a dispersion medium, and a solution containing electrolytes and amino acids. Also the nutrient infusion preparation comprises a fat emulsion (A) consisting essentially of fat particles having a mean particle size of 0.003 to 0.100 &mgr;m and a dispersion medium, and a solution (B) containing electrolytes and/or amino acids. A container having a plurality of chambers which are isolated from each other by partitions capable of being easily opened, whose respective chambers contain the fat emulsion (A) and said solution (B) and optionally a solution (C) containing saccharides. The infusion preparation of the present invention supplies various nutrient components including fatty acids required biologically to patients and enables amelioration or prevention of essential fatty acid deficiencies during TPN therapy. Further, the infusion preparation enables visual identification of insoluble foreign bodies present in an infusion container and can be administered to patients through a sterilization filter.
