Flax (Linum usitatissimum L
The archaeological evidence of flax cultivation dates back to >6000 BC and it is considered as one of the oldest and most useful crops. Components of flax have diverse uses. Cultivar development of flax is currently focused on enhancing the oil content and nutritional value to meet the demand of nutraceutical market supply, as an alternate source of fish oil, a rich source of eicosapentaenoic a...
متن کاملEffect of Raw and Heated Flaxseed (Linum Usitatissimum L.) On Blood Lipid Profiles in Rats
Flaxseed is a nutrient rich seed and lipid profiles improving effect of it has long been studied. Effect of heating as a part of food processing on its beneficial characteristics is not clarified in literature. This study aims to provide complementary information on effect of different dosages of raw and heated flaxseed on lipid profiles. Sprague Dawley rats were fed with 10%, 20% or 30% of eit...
متن کاملAnti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic activities of Linum usitatissimum L. (flaxseed/linseed) fixed oil.
The fixed oil of L. usitatissimum (flaxseed/linseed) inhibited PGE2-, leukotriene-, histamine- and bradykinin-induced inflammation. The oil also inhibited arachidonic acid-induced inflammation, suggesting its capacity to inhibit both cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase pathways of arachidonate metabolism. In tail immersion model, the oil raised the pain threshold to a lesser extent than morphine bu...
متن کاملImpact of dietary flaxseed (linum usitatissimum) supplementation on biochemical profile in healthy rats.
Flaxseed has been suggested play preventive and therapeutic roles in cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of flaxseed-supplemented dietary in healthy rats. We used 30 rats divided in three groups (n = 10): Control Group (C) was fed with a casein-based chow (10% protein; 5% fiber; 7% lipid); Flaxseed Group (F) was fed with the casein-based chow supplemented...
متن کاملBiotechnology of Flax (Linum usitatissimum)
Biotechnology can offer useful tools to complement conventional breeding programs. The techniques of in vitro selection, that exploit phenomenon, called somaclonal variation, by screening cell cultures for resistance to herbicides, different types of stress or diseases, already helped to obtain tolerant lines of flax (Linum usitatissimum), which were used in further commercial breeding programs...
