Lipidomic analysis of fats and oils - a lot more than just omega-3
نویسنده
چکیده
Edible oils and fats are among the most abundant cooking ingredients in the world, and are an important part of a healthy balanced diet, especially if they are high in omega-6 and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. Rather than just the total fatty acid compositions, the analysis of individual lipid species within these oils and fats have become increasingly important. Within the past decade several mass spectrometric lipidomics methods have been adapted and applied to the analysis of edible oils and fats. These methodologies are vital for the analysis of a plethora of lipid species that will be important for numerous health and sustainable issues in the future.

The influence of marine oil intake upon levels of lipids, alpha-tocopherol and lipid peroxidation in serum and liver of rats.
The effect of dietary intake of marine oils (CLO and SBO) on the lipids, alpha-tocopherol and TBARS in serum and liver was investigated in rats. In the dietary fats (8% in diet), the proportion of marine oils and corn oil was changed at five steps from 100:0 to 0:100. In the groups fed more than 50% CLO, serum cholesterol levels decreased while liver cholesterol increased as compared with the r...
