Production of chicken meat is an important branch of food industry. Generally, poultry meat farmers aim to produce birds with superior body weight and feed conversion ratio. However, in line with current developments, there are other parameters that must to be taken into account such as lower body fat deposition and improvement in the nutrient composition of products corresponding to consumer r...

The effect of alterations in dietary fat on the serum cholesterol level has been extensively studied during recent years. Numerous investigations have shown reductions in the serum lipid level of man after the dietary substitution of many vegetable oils for common animal fats or certain tropical oils such as coconut oil (1-11). The relatively high degree of saturation of coconut oil and fats of...

Inter-esterification is one of the processes used to modify the physico-chemical characteristics of oils and fats. Inter-esterification is an acyl-rearrangement reaction on the glycerol molecule. On the other hand, hydrogenation involves addition of hydrogen to the double bonds of unsaturated fatty acids. Due to health implications of trans fatty acids, which are formed during hydrogenation, th...

Ruminant milk fat is of unique composition among terrestrial mammals, due to its great diversity of component fatty acids. The diversity arises from the eVects of ruminal biohydrogenation on dietary unsaturated fatty acids and the range of fatty acids synthesized de novo in the mammary gland. Forty to sixty per cent of milk fatty acids are long-chain (predominantly C18) fatty acids derived from...

Wistar male rats were administrated Various Kinds of fats orally by a stomach tube, and each lipid content and fatty acid composition of each lipid fraction in the lung and liver were measured at time intervals of 3, 6 and 9 hours after administration. Both lung and liver showed increase of each lipid content, especially that of phospholipid content, 6 hours after the administration of safflowe...

This work describes the fatty acid and glyceride structures of Indian buffalo milk and depot fats. Only three other an4lyses of buffalo milk fat exist in the literature (Bhattacharya & Hilditch, 1931; Heiduschka & Cicekdagi, 1940), in only one of which was an examination made of the glyceride configuration, while no analysis of buffalo depot fat has so far been reported. The work below was ther...

Humans need to consume food compounds such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, and vitamins to meet their energy requirements. In this lab, reagents were used as indicators to test common food substances for the presence of specific nutrients. Meat and eggs tested positively for protein, while fruit, cereal, bread and potatoes tested positively for starch and glucose. Meats and oils had a high fa...

The phase composition and structure of stationary nickel-aluminum promoted catalysts have been studied. It is shown that the consists intermetallic compounds NiAl, NiAl3, Ni2Al3. Changes in microscopic alloys are determined. Modern methods for evaluating hydrogenation catalysts, as well analyzing raw materials products catalytic hydrogenation, established. highest performance characteristic who...

Edible oils and fats are among the most abundant cooking ingredients in the world, and are an important part of a healthy balanced diet, especially if they are high in omega-6 and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. Rather than just the total fatty acid compositions, the analysis of individual lipid species within these oils and fats have become increasingly important. Within the past decade s...
