Copper and nickel hydrogenations give a wide distribution of double bonds in the monoene fraction from both reduced soybean and linseed oils. With copper catalysts, high pressure hydrogenation reduces the extent of this double bond distribution when compared with low pressure hydrogenation. With nickel catalysts, some t.17-octadecenoate is formed but less than with a copper catalyst. In room od...

Seed oil is a momentous agronomical trait of soybean (Glycine max) targeted by domestication in breeding. Although multiple oil-related genes have been uncovered, knowledge of the regulatory mechanism of seed oil biosynthesis is currently limited. We demonstrate that the seed-preferred gene GmZF351, encoding a tandem CCCH zinc finger protein, is selected during domestication. Further analysis s...

alkyd resins were prepared into four different sets by varying the percentage concentrationof the glycerol content. various properties such as the viscosity, surface drying time, solubilityand color of the alkyd resins were evaluated for the various sets. the alkyd resin with the highestglycerol content was the most viscous, brownish in color and having the highest molecularweight this is due t...

. eight holstein cows in early lactating stage were used in a 4×4 change-over design within 4 periods of 21-d to determine the effects of alfalfa hay particle size and soybean oil supplementation on intake, digestibility, ruminal and blood metabolites, chewing activity, milk yield and compositions. four total mixed rations containing 20, 20 and 60% corn silage, alfalfa hay and concentrate respe...

This study was done to identify the effects of dietary safflower oil or soybean oil on the milk composition of maternal rats and the tissue fatty acid composition in postnatal rats. Different types of dietary fats affected the fatty acid pattern in the dam's milk. They affected tissue weight, lipid content, and phospholipid fatty acid compositions in the liver and brain of young rats, showing a...

TABLE I report that specially processed soybean oils containing little or no linolenate gave higher scores in aging tests than soybean oils with linolenate contents of 2.0-7.8. Room odor scores and descriptions were included in this report (4). Consequently blends of soybean and peanut oil appeared to be worth investigating since such blends could lower linolenate significantly. The French laws...

Soybeans are very versatile, both as a food product and an ingredient in many industrial products. The oil produced by soybeans is contained within many foods we eat every day. Natural soybean oil contains several essential fatty acids that our body needs to work prop‐ erly, including linoleic and linolenic acids. However, much of the soybean oil consumed in many parts of the world has been par...

Background: Previously, we showed that vegetable oil is necessary for carotenoid absorption from salad vegetables. Research is needed to better define the dose effect and its interindividual variation for carotenoids and fat-soluble vitamins.Objective: The objective was to model the dose-response relation between the amount of soybean oil in salad dressing and the absorption of 1) carotenoids, ...

BACKGROUND Distiller's dried grains with solubles (DDGS) and soybean meal were used as the substrates for the production of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in solid-state fermentation (SSF) by Mortierella alpine. These fermented products were fed to laying hens. PUFA enrichment from chicken breasts was studied. METHODS The maximum productivity of PUFA was achieved under optimized process c...

Increased cost of common feedstuffs and increased availability of coproducts from plant-based biofuel manufacturing has enhanced interest in the use of these coproducts in rations for dairy cattle (Donkin and Doane, 2007). Glycerol (commonly marketed as crude glycerine with a glycerol content of approximately 80%) is a coproduct produced during biodiesel production from soybean oil and is becom...
