Cryopreservation of seabass (Lates calcarifer) semen is an approach to increase the quantity and quality of seabass fry in aquaculture. However, cold shock can induce sperm injury leading to structural damage of the plasma membrane and loss of motility. Thus, the effect of cryopreservation on fatty acid composition and antioxidant enzyme activities of seabass sperm was determined. In cryopreser...

 The study aims to determine the influence of frying (shallow and deep) with olive, canola and sunflower oil on fatty acid composition of silver carp < /font>. Frying by olive oil and canola oil increased the monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) significantly (p < 0.05) that consequently decreased saturated fatty acids (SFA), polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and ω-3 fatty acids. Frying by sunfl...

Objective(s): Reproductive dysfunction is a consequence of diabetes. Diabetes is associated with changes in testicular tissue. Sesame oil contains large amounts of polyunsaturated fatty acids and lignin with antioxidant activity, vitamin E, and monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA). The present study investigated the effects of sesame on testis histology and male reproductive parameters in streptoz...

a seven-week trial was carried out to investigate the possibility of enriching eggs with vitamin e, inorganic and organic selenium added to the laying hen’s diet and lipid stability of enriched eggs during storage. seventy two hy-line w-36 hens were divided into six equal groups. each groups received one of the treatment diets which included control, 0.4 mg/ kg sodium selenite or selenium yeast...

Background: The motility patterns of spermatozoa correlate with the rate of natural pregnancy. It is not clear which compounds in spermatozoa or seminal plasma may be involved in the regulation of sperm motility. Considering the decrease of omega-3 fatty acids in spermatozoa of asthenozoospermic men, the aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of combined docosahexaenoic acid (D...

conclusions our results showed that vitamin e plus omega free fatty acids decrease the severity of mastodynia better than vitamin e alone. results vitamin e plus omega free fatty acids are more effective than the use of vitamin e alone in decreasing mastodynia. significant difference was seen between the cardiff breast score (cbs) of the vitamin e group compared to vitamin e - omega group (p < ...

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...
