Embodiment 1

[0094] Table 1 shows that the particles / crystals unexpectedly disappeared when the dry weight content was increased above 40% when assessed by microscopy. Keep all the ingredients the same except for the amino acid content. A similar experiment was performed by increasing corn syrup solids (digestible carbohydrates) while keeping all (al) other ingredients the same (with 20 g amino acids / 100 ml), with similar results. It was concluded that by increasing the dry weight to at least 40%, particulate matter unexpectedly disappeared from the product, thereby improving stability. Amino acid mixtures 1-3 together provide a complete amino acid profile according to the group of subjects (group of patients) to which the product is to be administered.

Abstract

The invention relates to a liquid or gelled pasteurized or sterilized composition comprising free amino acids, calcium, a digestible carbohydrate, and preferably an indigestible carbohydrate, wherein the free amino acids are present in a concentration between 5 and 30g / 100ml, and the dry weight of the total composition is at least 40g / 100ml, and preferably lower than 60 g / 100ml. The composition may in particular be used in the treatment of a human suffering from a disorder selected from the group consisting of phenylketonuria, homocystinuria, maple syrup urine disease, tyrosinaemia, propionic acidaemia, methylmalonic acidaemia, isovaleric acidaemia, urea cycle disorders and glutaric aciduria.

Description

Background technique [0001] The present invention relates to the field of amino acid-based liquid and gel-like compositions, in particular for administering such compositions to subjects suffering from inborn errors of metabolism. [0002] Dietary management of many inborn errors of metabolism requires the absence of specific amino acids. For example, phenylketonuria (PKU) patients require protein sources with as low a concentration of phenylalanine as possible. Over the years, enteral formulations based on free amino acids incorporated into nutritionally complete amino acid compositions without specific amino acids such as phenylalanine have been developed. Other inborn errors of metabolism may require different amino acid profiles. [0003] Almost all of these formulations are powder formulations that patients can mix with, for example, water, lemon juice, or other low-protein liquids. The problem with this recipe is that not all amino acids are readily soluble, and free ...
