"Trans fatty acid content of human milk in Spain."

This study found that trans fatty acids were present in the milk of
mothers tested, (.95% of the total fatty acids) and that this level was
related to the amount of hydrogenated fats consumed by the mother. It
also stated that this amount was lower than the trans fatty acid content
of the infant formulas in Spain.
