Lecithin is the key material attribute in soy bean oil affecting filamentous bioprocesses

Behavior of horses is affected by soy lecithin and corn oil in the diet.

To test the hypothesis that dietary fats may improve tractability of horses, the effects of four total mixed diets on behavior were compared. The control diet (CON) contained chopped hay, corn, oats, beet pulp, molasses and a mineral mix; the three test diets contained an additional 10% (by weight) corn oil (CO), soy lecithin-corn oil (SL-CO), or soy lecithin-soy oil (SL-SO). Eight horses were ...

The development of soy sauce from organic soy bean

Soy sauce with a high salt liquid-state fermentation process was prepared by using organic soy beans as raw material. Beidahuang organic soy bean was selected among different raw materials. Here, the best technique was determined. Firstly, the organic soy beans were soaked for 7 hours under 121°C , steamed for 15 min and mixed with the fried wheat (5:5, w/w). After inoculated with Aspergillus o...

Influence of Soy Lecithin Administration on Hypercholesterolemia

Recent studies suggest that lecithin-rich diet can modify cholesterol homeostasis and hepatic lipoprotein metabolism. Considering the phytotherapeutic impact of lecithin, this work hypothesizes that lecithin administration in hypercholesterolemic patients may reduce cholesterol concentrations by increasing biliary secretion. Total cholesterol and LDL were evaluated after soy lecithin administra...

Differential effects of dietary supplementation with fish oil or soy lecithin on human platelet adhesion.

To investigate the possible regulating role of omega-6 and of omega-3 fatty acids on platelet adhesiveness, we randomised 60 volunteers into three groups to take 20 ml (equivalent to 0.3 g omega-6, 3.6 g omega-3; omega-6/omega-3 ratio 0.1) per day of a fish oil supplement, or to take 25 g (equivalent to 1.5 g omega-6, 0.5 g omega-3; omega-6/omega-3 ratio 3) per day of a soy lecithin supplement,...
