This study evaluated the ability of fennel extract to improve the quality of refrigerated minced silver carp over a period of 16 days. Minced silver carp were treated with fennel extract (0.5, 1 and 1.5% w/w), and beta-hydroxy toluene (BHT 200 ppm). The control and the treated fish samples were analyzed periodically (every­4 days) by chemical analysis (Peroxide value (PV), thiobarbituric acid (...

the aim of this study was to develop a diet suitable for obtaining quail eggs enriched with omega-3 fatty acids with minimum disadvantages on egg quality. this 12 weeks study was performed to investigate the effects of fish oil (fo) and savory (satureja khuzestanica) essential oil (eo) supplementation in diets of laying quails at different ages, on their performance, egg quality, fatty acid com...

C75, an inhibitor of fatty acid synthase (FAS), induces apoptosis in cultured human cancer cells. Its proposed mechanism of action linked high levels of malonyl-CoA after FAS inhibition to potential downstream effects including inhibition of carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1 (CPT-1) with resultant inhibition of fatty acid oxidation. Recent data has shown that C75 directly stimulates CPT-1 increa...

BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) results in hypertriglyceridemia which is largely due to impaired clearance of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins occasioned by downregulation of lipoprotein lipase and very low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor in the skeletal muscle and adipose tissue and of hepatic lipase and LDL receptor-related protein in the liver. However, data on the effect of CKD on ...

Friedman, Mark I., Ruth B. Harris, Hong Ji, Israel Ramirez, and Michael G. Tordoff. Fatty acid oxidation affects food intake by altering hepatic energy status. Am. J. Physiol. 276 (Regulatory Integrative Comp. Physiol. 45): R1046–R1053, 1999.—Inhibition of fatty acid oxidation stimulates feeding behavior in rats. To determine whether a decrease in hepatic fatty acid oxidation triggers this beha...

introduction atherosclerosis is a disease which begins during childhood. oxidation of lipoproteins is an important factor implicated in atherosclerosis. vitamin c decreases blood serum lipids and may inhibit atherosclerosis. this study was designed to observe the effect of ascorbic acid on blood serum lipids in male rabbits fed high-cholesterol diet. methods twenty white male rabbits were weigh...

Fatty acid-binding protein is considered to play an important role in fatty acid oxidation. Since diabetes mellitus causes marked changes of this latter metabolic process, we compared the effect of this pathological condition on both parameters in a comparative investigation of different rat tissues. Palmitate oxidation capacity and content of fatty acid-binding protein were determined in liver...

introduction : pistachio (pistaciavera l.) is a tasty nut and a good source of nutrients. ithas a high content of numerous beneficial nutritive and bioactive compounds such as proteins, carbohydrate, moisture, vitamins, minerals, fiber and other micronutrients compounds, but the most exceptional components are the amount of fats and especially unsaturated fatty acids. therefore, this nut is hig...

Although considerable research has been conducted in recent years on the mechanisms of fatty acid synthesis and oxidation in animal tissues (1) and in microorganisms (2), no similar studies of higher plants have yet been reported, despite the great importance of fat-storing seeds and fruits in the economy of nature and the value to comparative biochemistry of an understanding of fatty acid biog...

this study was carried out to evaluate the effects of red onion (allium cepa l.) juice and green tea (camellia sinenses) extract on lipid oxidation and sensory characteristics of refrigerated (4ºc) sturgeon fillets (acipenser persicus). fresh fillets were tumbled in 1%, 2.5%, and 5% (v/v) aqueous solutions of onion juice (oj) and tea extract (te), and then stored for up to 8 days at 4°c in a re...
