The study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different dietary oil sources supplementation on laying hens’ performance and fatty acids profile of egg yolks. Seventy-two 23-week-old laying hens (Tetra-SL) divided into six experimental diets (four replicates and three birds per replication) in a completely randomized design for nine weeks. Experimental diets were included: 1) control (no oi...

the biosynthetic pathways of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids consist of many steps controlled by various enzymes. one of the methods for improving oil quality is to change the fatty acid profile through genetic manipulation which requires isolation and characterization of the genes and other cis-acting elements, such as the promoter, involved in fatty acid biosynthesis. b-ketoacyl-coa syn...

the aim of the present study was to assess the effect of slaughter and carcass weight, age at slaughter and sex on the fatty acid profile of the greek boutsiko sheep breed. twenty lambs (ten females and ten males) were examined. the lambs were slaughtered at the age of 48 days. carcasses were chopped in nine specific cuts and a random sample of 100 g was taken from each cut, with a total of 180...

introduction the common isoform of fatty acids in animal and herbal lipids are cis fatty acids, however in some sources such as milk and meat of ruminant, the trans fatty acids are more abundant as compared to the plant lipids. the trans fatty acids are very important because they increase the cardiovascular and heart attack. the heart disorders were increased by enhancing the concentration of ...

background: endometriosis is a common chronic inflammation causing major problems including infertility. the role of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids as their potential anti-inflammatory effects in endometriosis needs to be further explored. the objective of this study was to compare serum phospholipid fatty acid profile in endometriosis patients with controls, and to explore the correlation of ...

in order to study the effects of artichoke leaf powder on the quality parameters of thigh and breast meat and the fatty acids profile of breast meat, 240 day-old japanese quails were used. the brids were assigned to 4 treatments including basal diet (control), basal diet supplemented with levels of 15 and 30 g/kg artichoke powder and 300 mg/kg vitamin e with 4 replicates for each treatment in a...

the rapid expansion in world production of palm oil over the last three decades has attracted the attention of the oils and fats industry. oil palm gives the highest yield of oil per unit of any crop. palm oil is the major oil produced, with annual world production in excess of 50 million tonnes. throughout the world, 90% of palm oil is used for edible purposes (e.g., margarine, deep fat frying...
