研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of the study is to assess the acceptability of the two lipid-based nutrient supplement (LNS) formulations containing no zinc and a high amount of zinc (10 mg zinc / 20 g dose of LNS). The hypothesis is that both products will be equally accepted by children and mothers.
详细描述
We plan to conduct a series of acceptability studies to: 1) assess the amounts of zinc-free and high-zinc LNS consumed by children during direct observation, 2) compare their mothers' sensory assessments of the respective products, and 3) review maternal reports of their child feeding experiences during more prolonged home feeding trials.
