How many total calories are provided in 500 ml of a 20% dextrose solution with 500 ml of a 4% protein solution and 250 ml of a 20% lipid emulsion? How many grams of protein are provided in the above solution? What is the calorie: nitrogen ratio in the above solution?

Step 1
Given: - 500 ml of 20% dextrose solution (20 g in 100 ml) - 500 ml of 4% protein solution (20 g in 500 ml) - 250 ml of 20% lipid emulsion (20 g in 100 ml) Total calories from dextrose = 20 g * 5 = 100 g Total calories from protein = 20 g * 4 = 80 g Total calories Show more…
