From: Metabolic phenotype of breast-fed infants, and infants fed standard formula or bovine MFGM supplemented formula: a randomized controlled trial

Figure 3

Untargeted plasma metabolome by GC-MS reveals a difference between breast-fed (BF, green) and formula-fed (Experimental Formula, EF, orange; Standard Formula, SF, red) infants at 6 months of age. (a) Principal component analysis (PCA) of generalized log transformed intensity data. The corresponding plasma metabolites significantly different between (b) BF and formula-fed, and between (c) SF and EF infants at 6 months of age. The 95% confidence interval was estimated using the normal distribution. The number of samples from each group is summarized in SI Table 3.
