The fixed oil of L. usitatissimum (flaxseed/linseed) inhibited PGE2-, leukotriene-, histamine- and bradykinin-induced inflammation. The oil also inhibited arachidonic acid-induced inflammation, suggesting its capacity to inhibit both cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase pathways of arachidonate metabolism. In tail immersion model, the oil raised the pain threshold to a lesser extent than morphine bu...

The objective of the experiment was to determine the effects of fat supplementation on embryo quality of dairy cows and the subsequent success of embryo transfer into recipient heifers fed the same sources of fat. A total of 30 lactating Holstein cows were allotted on d 18 postpartum to 2 groups of 15 donor cows blocked for similar calving dates. Total mixed diets based on silage and fat supple...

Recently, novel dietary oils with modified fatty acid profiles have been manufactured to improve fatty acid intakes and reduce CVD risk. Our objective was to evaluate the efficacy of novel high-oleic rapeseed (canola) oil (HOCO), alone or blended with flaxseed oil (FXCO), on circulating lipids and inflammatory biomarkers v. a typical Western diet (WD). Using a randomised, controlled, crossover ...

BACKGROUND Flaxseed oil is characterized by high content of essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) promoted as a human dietary supplement protecting against atherosclerosis. The disadvantage of the high PUFA content in flax oil is high susceptibility to oxidation, which can result in carcinogenic compound formation. Linola flax cultivar is characterized by high linoleic acid content in co...

In Russia, flax has been cultivated since ancient times; fiber linen fabrics and other products were produce to meet needs of the population for exchange. Oil was a less common crop, but its cultivation is great interest.In recent years, worldwide interest in use flaxseed oil increased due healing properties high content linolenic acid. Flaxseed removes cholesterol, improves metabolism proteins...

The effects of n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acids (n-3 HUFA) were studied on Beluga (Huso huso) fish larvae by feeding fish larvae with live food  enriched with 4 different oils (ICES 30/4, tuna eye oil, flaxseed oil and linseed oil) containing different levels of n-3 HUFA including 27.19, 20.33, 12.71 and 0.39 mg g-1 dry weight of oil, respectively. Fish larvae weighing 30.00±2.00 mg were rand...

in this research, nano materials with tubular structures are added to sae 20w50 engine oil to study the rate of their effects on the properties of engine oil. multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) and vanadium oxide nanotubes (vonts) has been used as two different additive materials, one of them is carbonic and the other is metallic oxides and their effect on  different parameters containing v...

In order to overcome existing complicated and costly simultaneous measurement system, an inexpensive and simple measurement system was suggested to measure the temperature field and velocity field at high temperature. The manganese-activated magnesium fluorogermanate (Mg4FGe6:Mn, MFG) which is one of thermographic phosphor with luminescence characteristic of excitation at 385 nm wavelength and ...
