Composition and Fatty Acid Distribution of Bovine Milk Phospholipids from Processed Milk Products

Nutritional factors affecting the fatty acid composition of bovine milk.

The predominant fatty acids in milk are the long-chain fatty acids myristic, palmitic and stearic. These saturated fatty acids account for 75% of the total fatty acids, with a further 21% occurring as monounsaturated fatty acids of which the most prevalent is oleic acid. Only 4 g/100 g of the milk fatty acids are polyunsaturated, occurring mainly as linoleic and linolenic acids. All milk fatty ...

Fatty acid composition of Taiwanese human milk.

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to analyze quantitatively the fatty acid composition of the milk of Taiwanese women. METHODS Two hundred and sixty-nine human milk specimens were obtained from 240 Taiwanese mothers, aged 19-41 years, and subjected to chromatographic analysis. RESULTS Milk specimens were pooled by the mothers' districts of residence and lactation stages, at 0-11 days...

Fatty Acid Profiles of In Vitro Digested Processed Milk

Digestion of milkfat releases some long-chain (18-carbon) fatty acids (FAs) that can provide health benefits to the consumer, yet because they are found in small amounts and can be difficult to identify, there is limited information on the effects that common fluid milk processing may have on the digestibility of these FAs. This study provides FA profiles for raw and combinations of homogenized...

change in fatty acids composition of milk products during the traditional ghee-making process

seasonal variation of fatty acids composition of milk and various milk products have been subjected to many investigations.however ,most of the researches are concerned with a single product and apparantly there is no inforation about the extent and the factors which contribute to changes in fatty acids composition of lipids in the process of ghee-making by the  traditional methods.thus compara...
