the effect of kaolin on fruit and oil of olive cv. `zard’ was evaluated in a commercial orchard in fasacity, fars province. mature olive trees cv. `zard’ were sprayed with 0, 3 and 6% kaolin after 60 days, 60and 90 days and 60, 90, 120 days after full bloom. results showed that kaolin concentration and sprayingtime had not significant effects on physicochemical parameters but they had significa...

Pistachio nut has high nutritional value. The fat and protein are the common part of pistachio. Major part (about 88%) of the fat content of pistachio includes unsaturated fatty acids. Unsaturated fatty acids are known to have positive effects on human health like preventing to heart diseases. This research has evaluated protein, fat and fatty acids content of some commercial pistachio cultivar...

the aim of the present study was to assess the effect of slaughter and carcass weight, age at slaughter and sex on the fatty acid profile of the greek boutsiko sheep breed. twenty lambs (ten females and ten males) were examined. the lambs were slaughtered at the age of 48 days. carcasses were chopped in nine specific cuts and a random sample of 100 g was taken from each cut, with a total of 180...

Background & Aim: Ocimum basilicum L. is belong to the Lamiaceae family which is cultivated as a culinary, industrial and medicinal plants in some countries from thousands years ago. The seed of this plant is rich in poly un-saturated fatty acids (PUFA) and produced a large amount of mucilage. Experimental: The oil of seed was extracted separately and converted to fatty acids...

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of using raw or microwave irradiated safflower seed on dry matter intake, milk production and composition, milk fatty acid profile, blood parameters, and nutrient apparent digestibility in early lactation cows. Nine multiparous Holstein cows at early lactation were randomly assigned to one of three treatments based on 3 × 3 balanced latin ...

the rapid expansion in world production of palm oil over the last three decades has attracted the attention of the oils and fats industry. oil palm gives the highest yield of oil per unit of any crop. palm oil is the major oil produced, with annual world production in excess of 50 million tonnes. throughout the world, 90% of palm oil is used for edible purposes (e.g., margarine, deep fat frying...

in order to investigate the effects of boron, zinc and sulfur on yield and fatty acid composition of rapeseed(hyola 401 cultivar), an experiment was conducted in rasht province in 2011. a field experiment withcompletely randomized block design was performed with eight treatments in three replications.maximum grain yield (4157.6 kg ha-1) and grain oil (1770.2 kg ha-1) was obtained from s+b+zntre...

Background: Liver fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP) is the main cytosolic binding site for long chain fatty acids in hepatocytes. FABPs enhance the uptake of fatty acids into the cell by increasing their concentration due to decreasing concentration of unbound fatty acids inside the cell. Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of dietary unsaturated to saturated fatty a...

the oil extracted from three major canola cultivars (hyolla401, hyolla420 and rgs003) grown in golestan province was analyzed for physico-chemical properties, fatty acid composition, minerals content, and stability during 16 weeks of storage. according to the results, the highest iodine value and refractive index belonged to hyolla401. the highest saponification value was observed in hyolla420....
