چکیده
Received: 30/01/2014 Revised: 25/02/2014 Accepted: 02/03/2014 Abstract Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are getting more attention due to their role in human health. Nowadays, a growing awareness of health benefits of omega-3 (ω-3 or also referred as n-3) fatty acid has been found. Present overview provides importance, source and different methods used for the production of PUFA concentrates. Recent developments on production of omega-3 PUFA have been reviewed.

Changes of fatty acid profiles in fillets of Cobia (Rachycentron canadum) during frozen storage
In this study changes in fatty acids profile during frozen storage at -18°C of Cobia (Rachycentron canadum), caught from the Persian Gulf (Bandar Abbas) were studied. Changes in saturated fatty acids (SFAs), monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), EPA+DHA/C16, n-3 PUFA/n-6 PUFA (n-3/n-6) and polyunsaturated fatty acids /saturated fatty acids (PUFA/SFA) were i...

متن کاملCurrent Trends and Future Perspectives on Omega-3 Fatty Acids
Eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid, the two main omega (ω)-3 fatty acids, have therapeutic and beneficial health effects (Figure 1). Recently these essential long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs) have received increased attention in both human and animal nutrition [1,2]. Currently, the principal source of EPA and DHA for human consumption is fish and fish oil. However, m...
متن کاملFatty acid composition and eating quality of lamb types derived from four diverse breed × production systems.
Carcass composition, muscle fatty acids and eating quality of loin chops were examined in ram lambs from four diverse breed × production system groups: pure Welsh Mountain off upland flora, pure Soays off lowland grass, Suffolk crosses off lowland grass and Suffolk crosses off concentrates. The two Suffolk groups had heavier and better muscled carcasses than the others and Soays were particular...
متن کاملMetabolic Effects of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Chickens: A Review
Chicken has been used as a suitable model for lipid metabolism studies, because dietary modifications especially dietary fat type can change chicken body composition. Fats act as a condense source of energy and certain fatty acids such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are required for both animal and human health. The n-3 PUFAs, especially, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic ...
