Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA), Glycerol (G) and sunflower oil blends with varying concentration were subjected to enzymatic esterification using a 1, 3- specific immobilized lipase. CLA was used as acyl due to its purported health benefits. The transesterified lipids were evaluated for free fatty acids (FFA) and composition of fatty acids by gas chromatography. Lipozyme RM IM is preferred for ...

For nearly a century, it has been known that dietary triglyceride is hydrolyzed in the small intestinal lumen by pancreatic lipase. Early workers had shown the presence of fatty acid (believed to be largely present as paraffin chain soap) in intestinal content after the ingestion of fat. At the turn of the century, the field of fat absorption was dominated by Pfliiger, who staunchly defended th...

abstract background: migraine is a primary headache disorder that affects the neurovascular system. recent studies have shown that consumption of some fatty acids such as omega‑3 fatty acids improves migraine symptoms. the aim of the present study is to assess the association between usual intake of fatty acids such as eicosapentaenoic acid (epa), docosahexaenoic acid (dha), and saturated fatty...

In this study, oil was extracted from the liver and visceral fat of Patin (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus) and refined. The yield of oil after refining was 49.98%. The major yield loss (34.20%) happened during the degumming procedure. Fatty acids found in the crude and refined oil were C12:0, C14:0, C14:1, C16:0, C16:1, C18:0, C18:1, C18:2, C18:3, C18:4, C20:0, C20:1, C20:4, C20:5, and C22:6. The ...

Systems biology methods using large-scale "omics" data sets face unique challenges: integrating and analyzing near limitless data space, while recognizing and removing systematic variation or noise. Herein we propose a complementary multivariate analysis workflow to both integrate "omics" data from disparate sources and analyze the results for specific and unique sample correlations. This workf...

lipids play an important role in maintaining human health. thermal process cause to changes in nutritional value as well as changes in the profile of fatty acids in fish. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of frying on chemical composition and profile of fatty acids is fish shaary. for doing this project, 10 kg of the fish were purchased from the market of behbahan and with ice we...

hydrogenation of oils might be considered as the largest reaction in the edible oil industry. the reaction consists of the addition of hydrogen at the double bounds of fatty acids. although for some reasons this might be considered a desirable reaction but for some others it might create problems in the food and nutrition chain circle due to the formation of saturated and trans fatty acids. soy...

The aim of the present study was to determine and compare the seasonal changes in the proximate composition, fatty acids profile and fat soluble vitamins content in spring and autumn goby (Neogobius melanostomus) caught from the Bulgarian Black Sea waters. The proximate composition (moisture, protein and total lipid) has been determined according to AOAC (1990).  Analysis of fatty acid methyl e...

The effects of the use of essential oil of Rosmarinus officinalis on the chemical quality and fatty acids of fish fillets of Ctenopharyngodon idella were investigated during frozen storage at -18 ºC for 6 months. Fish fillets were divided into three groups the control (C) without rosemary essential, the second group with 0.2 % rosemary essential oil (A) and the third with 0.4 % rosemary essenti...
