Fatty acids composition in edible parts of Blue Swimming Crab (Portunus pelagicus) caught in the Persian Gulf close to the Bushehr Province were investigated. Among saturated fatty acids (SFA), the 16:0 and 18:0 fatty acids were the most two dominant fatty acids in meat tissues that analyzed. 18:1n-9 and 16:1n-7 were the major fatty acids among the MUFAs of male and female crab. The main PUFAs ...

Owing to the favorable effects of essential fatty acids on human health, a great degree of interest on fatty acid profiles and nutritional quality of fish species have been of interest in the recent years. The present study investigated the lipid content, fatty acid profiles and nutritional quality in nine freshwater fish species from the Ganjiang River in the Yangtze basin, China. Results show...

the objective of this study was to investigate the effects of summer savory essential oil (sseo) with cereals (based on barley or corn) on performance, rumen volatile fatty acid concentrations and some blood parameters of west azerbaijan native kids. in a randomized complete block design with a 3×2 factorial (0, 200 and 400 mg/d of sseo × barley or corn grain based diets) arrangement with 6 rep...

Approximately 10-30% of tomatoes are wasted during processing. Tomato pomace consists of crushed skin and seeds of tomatoes. Seeds might be considered as a potential source of vegetable oil. The extracted oil is high in unsaturated fatty acids, namely linoleic acid. The extracted oil after purification or refining might be employed for consumption. The object of this study was to evaluate the e...

In this study, the oil contents, fatty acid composition and tocopherol contents of sesame seed and oils belong to different countries were determined. The oil contents of materials changed between 49.22% (India) and 56.16% (Nigeria-Kanu). The major saturated fatty acids in sesame seed oils were palmitic (6.06-9.03%), stearic (5.29-6.42%) acids with small 20:0 (0.19-0.71%) acids. The main un...

Shortenings are a mixture of one or more vegetable edible oil with partial hydrogenation in mixed with or without animal fat. In this study, three formulations of shortenings, with the best commercial and technological properties were prepared. Increasing consumption of shortenings at the human daily diet, with low adverse coronary effects in human daily diet, three formulations prepared using ...

Introduction: Gastric cancer is the fourth common cancer and the second leading cause of death from cancer worldwide. Omega fatty acids are a group of non-saturated fatty acids of long chains derive from linolenic, linoleic and oleic fatty acids. The current study aimed at examining the possible effects of oral administration of omega-3, -6 and -9 fatty acids on gastric cancer cell apoptosis in...

Chemically modified silicon nanoparticles were applied for the laser desorption/negative ionization of small acids. A series of substituted sulfonic acids and fatty acids was studied. Compared to desorption ionization on porous silicon (DIOS) and other matrix-less laser desorption/ionization techniques, silicon nanoparticle-assisted laser desorption/ionization (SPALDI) mass spectrometry allows ...
