for example, olive, palm, cottonseed, peanut, soybean,
sesame, corn, sunflower seed, linseed, rapeseed, sardine,
menhaden, tung, safflower, poppyseed, rice bran, almond,
wheat germ oils, and the like. Oily dispersions of the
unsaturated fatty acids can be used. In the present
preparation it is preferred to use the edible unsaturated
oils having substantial percentages of linoleic acid, for
example, soybean oil, safflower oil, corn oil, sunflower
seed oil, and mixtures thereof.

Babayan describes “triglyceride preparations for enteral or
parenteral administration to prevent catabolism and to increase
protein synthesis in subjects undergoing severe metabolic stress”
(Babayan, p. 1, 1st para.), i.e., the “invention provides medium
chain and long chain fatty acids chemically synthesized into
structured triglycerides (lipids) for enteral or parenteral
administration as the lipid calorie source” (Babayan, p. 3, 1st
para.; emphasis added). Babayan states (Babayan, p. 3, l. 6, to
p. 4, l. 5):
The structural lipids of this invention are randomly
rearranged mixtures of medium chain triglycerides (MCT)
and long chain triglycerides (LCT). They may be represented
by the following formula,
