The effects of diets high in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA; provided by fish oil), n-6 PUFA (sunflower oil) or in more-saturated fatty acids (tallow) on the distribution of subclasses of choline phospholipids (PC) and ethanolamine phospholipids (PE) from the breast muscle of broiler chickens were examined. Supplementation with the different fatty acids had no effect on the distribution ...

Omega-3 (ω-3) very long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (VLC-PUFAs) such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; 20:5 Δ5,8,11,14,17) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22:6 Δ4,7,10,13,16,19) have been shown to have significant roles in human health. Currently the primary dietary source of these fatty acids are marine fish; however, the increasing demand for fish and fish oil (in particular the expansion o...

A comparison was made between the liver and brain conversion of linoleic acid, 18:2n-6, and linolenic acid, 18:3n-3, to long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in domestic felines. This report demonstrates that 6-desaturase activity does exist in the feline. The liver produced deuterium-labeled polyunsaturated fatty acids up to 22:4n-6 and 22:5n-3. The brain was found to accumulate the deuterium...

The risk of developing multiple sclerosis (MS) is associated with increased dietary intake of saturated fatty acids. For many years it has been suspected that this disease might be associated with an imbalance between unsaturated and saturated fatty acids. We determined erythrocyte membrane fatty acids levels in Hot nature dietary intervention with co-supplemented hemp seed and evening primrose...

The seed oil of Crepis eonyzaefolia (Gouan) Daile Torre contains previously unidentified (± )-eis-12,13epoxyoctadeca-trans-6-cis-9-dienoic (14 and eis-12,13-epoxyoctadeca-cis-6-cis-9-dienoic (2 ~{) acids and the more common vernolic [( ±)-12,13-epoxyoctadec-cis-9-enoic] (32 %) acid.

Grape seed oil is a product resulting from the processing of grape marc. It is ever more appealing for the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries: the pharmaceutical activities concern its antioxidant properties, due to the large content of unsaturated fatty acids. Grape seed oil could be extracted mechanically by pressing or chemically by means of solvents. Among the latter, supercritical CO2 ...

oil is a strategic product in our country, iran. the amount of importing this product is considerable, and therefore, any attempt to produce crude oil in our country in a way that competes with the foreign counterparts, with regard to both quality and production cost is considered important. this study addresses the effect of oil seeds preparation step on quality of crude oil, which is extracte...

In this study, total fatty acid composition and volatile fatty acid of silage species in Turkey was determined by using Gas Chromatography (Shimadzu 15-A). Total lipids were extracted from the corn silage, alfalfa silage and figüre silage samples by the method of Folch et al. Silage species were a total of 15 different fatty acids. These fatty acids between C12 to C24 have changed. Unsaturated ...

objectives the link between dietary fat and heart disease has been established for decades. although, the atherogenic effect of saturated fatty acids is somehow controversial, the cardioprotective effects of polyunsaturated fatty acids (pufa) are clearly documented. this study investigated the effects of different dietary oils on serum fatty acid composition in rat. methods six week male wistar...
