In this study, seasonal variations of fatty acid amounts in muscle tissues of Capoeta caelestis were investigated. We have found that the ω3 contents of C. caelestis in spring, summer, autumn and winter were 17.43%, 15.29%, 17.54%, 13.63% in female and 16.96%, 19.25%, 18.66%, 14.76% in male, respectively. The amounts of ω3 polyunsaturated fatty acids were higher than those of ω6 polyunsaturated...

background and objectives: amygdalus with a number of endemic species grow vastly in iran. edible sweet almond (a. communis), is cultivated in many countries due to its pharmaceutical, nutritional and cosmetic importance; while almond oil which is rich in oleic acid is known for its economic interest. in the present study, the amount and constituents of oil of six amygdalus species including a....

  Eviscerated sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax were irradiated by Cobalt-60 at commercial irradiation facility at dose of 2.5 and 5 kGy at 2–4°C. The influences of the irradiation on proximate, fatty acid and amino acid composition in cultured sea bass were investigated. Significant differences (P < 0.0.5) were found between non-irradiated and irradiated sea bass in terms of moisture, protein, fa...

This study was conducted to determine optimal ratios of dietary linolenic acid (18:3n-3, LnA) to linoleic acid (18:2n-6, LA) for Tor tambroides. Juveniles were fed three trial diets with different ratios of LnA/LA (0.0, 0.5 and 1.0) for 10 weeks. Another diet contained 100% palm oil, which was similar tothe diet with 0.0 LnA/LA ratio but different in total amounts of C18polyunsaturated fatty ac...

the effects of different cooking methods (deep fat frying, boiling and steaming) on lipid content and fatty acid composition of grass carp ( ctenopharyngodon idella ) fillets during chill storage were investigated. fillet samples were cooked and then stored at + 4°c for 4 days. the control and the cooked fillet samples were analyzed for their chemical characteristics. twelve fatty acids were id...

In this study rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) fillets were vacuum packed, frozen and stored at -18°C and  the effect of this packaging method on proximate composition, fatty acids and amino acid profile and their changes compared to control conditions during 9 months of storage were studied. The results showed that 18 fatty acids were identified. The unsaturated fatty acid (UFA) were 56.77 ...

abstract: olives belong to the family of olea europaea l. is a popular fruit tree. the fruit and the oil extracted from it is consumed worldwide particularly in the mediterranean regions. in this study changes in the fatty acid composition of the oil extracted from olive fruit during the course of maturation is investigated. this work is concerned with the best harvesting point when oleic acid ...
