Study on fatty acid composition and cholesterol content of cultured sturgeon (Bester sp.).

Consequences of the Combined α-tocopherol, Ascorbic Acid and α-lipoic Acid on the Glutathione, Cholesterol and Fatty Acid Composition in Muscle and Liver of Diabetic Rats

Evaluation of Oil Content and Fatty Acid Composition in Seeds of Different Genotypes of Safflower

Evaluation of four safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) genotypes for oil content and fatty acidcomposition showed that oil content varied from 22.16 to 34.39% and the highest seed oilcontent was obtained from Isfahan14 genotype (34.39%, respectively). Among those fatty acidswere detected, linoleic acid (75.81- 77.86%) was the predominant fatty acid followed by oleic(12.57–13.75%), palmitic (6.0...

Fatty acid composition and cholesterol content of beef and chicken meat in Southern Brazil

The aim of the present study was to analyze the fatty acid composition and cholesterol content of the beef and chicken meat most often consumed by a population of type 2 diabetic patients in Southern Brazil: for beef, semimembranosus and biceps femoris; and for chicken, drumstick and thigh. The moisture content (gravimetrically), protein content (Kjeldahl procedure), cholesterol content (HPLC o...

Short communication Fatty acid and cholesterol content, chemical composition and sensory evaluation of horsemeat

This study aimed to determine the fatty acid and chemical composition and cholesterol concentration of horsemeat, and to evaluate its taste acceptability by the Brazilian population. Horsemeat samples (M. longissimus dorsi) were obtained from a Paraná State slaughterhouse. The chemical composition revealed a low lipid (2.9%) and high protein content (22.5%). The concentrations of the nutritiona...

Fatty Acid Composition, Fat Soluble Vitamins and Cholesterol Content of Farmed Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

In this study, fatty acid composition, fat soluble vitamins (retinol, D2, D3, δ-tocopherol, α-tocopherol, K1, K2) and cholesterol content of farmed rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were investigated. The results show that there were significant differences in saturated fatty acids (SFAs) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) contents between trout muscle and diet (P<0.01 and P<0.05, respec...
