What is Comparison of Vitamin E Isoforms Among Plasma, Breast Milk, and Dietary Intake Measure of Mother-Infant Dyads about?
## Abstract ## Objectives Vitamin E is a fat-soluble nutrient with four isoforms: α-, β-, δ-, and γ-tocopherol. These isoforms differentially modulate inflammation and are related to important perinatal outcomes such as preterm delivery and Apgar scores. Understanding the dietary consumption of these isoforms and their respective prevalence in biological samples is an important component to optimize nutritional recommendations. The purpose of this study is to compare tocopherol isoform proportions among maternal, cord, and neonatal plasma; maternal breast milk; and maternal dietary intake. ## Methods Samples of maternal breast milk and maternal, cord, and neonatal plasma were obtained within 1 month following delivery for maternal-infant dyads (N = 17) from the neonatal intensive care unit. Maternal dietary intake was assessed using the Harvard Willett Food Frequency Questionnaire. Relative proportions of α-, δ-, and γ-tocopherol in each sample type were measured and median tocopherol concentrations were compared using Kruskal-Wallis tests. A p-value < 0.05 was statistically significant. ## Results Total tocopherol concentrations were significantly different across sample groups (P
