Safe i.v. fat emulsions have a fat droplet size distribution similar to chylomicrons (upper limit size at about 5 μm).
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
Safe i.v. fat emulsions have a fat droplet size distribution similar to chylomicrons, with an upper limit size of about 5 μm. This means that the fat droplets in the emulsions are relatively small, similar to the size of chylomicrons, which are the largest lipoproteins in the body. This is important because smaller fat droplets are less likely to cause adverse effects such as embolism or blockage of blood vessels. Therefore, the statement is true.
