The aim of this study was to provide information on the fatty acid profile of different adipose depots – subcutaneous (upper and inner backfat layers) and intramuscular (m. Longissimus dorsi) in East Balkan pigs. The animals were reared in free-range conditions and slaughtered at an average live weight of 107±1.65kg. The results of the study showed that the various adipose tissues in pigs have ...

Rat brain increases in weight after birth in three stages: (I) rapidly for the first 2 weeks, (II) at a lower rate from 2 to 5 weeks, and (III) at a still lower rate from 5 weeks to 5 months. During the succeeding period, designated IV, it maintains constant weight up to 1 year of age. Brain ganglioside content increased linearly during I and II, more slowly during III, and diminished during IV...

Vitamin D (VD) is a fat-soluble vitamin with high deficiency levels evident globally. Bioaccessibility of VD influenced by formation mixed micelles (MM) during digestion. This study assessed the impact fatty acid (FA) type, phospholipid concentration on MM and stability to salts. occurred at NaCl KCl concentrations ranging from 20 100 mM, when octanoic (C8) or stearic (C18) were used. hydrodyna...

Background. Desaturase enzymes are involved in the formation of monoenoic acids from saturated fatty acids. One such enzyme is stearyl-CoA-desaturase (SCD1), which converts stearic acid to oleic acid. The aim this work was determine effect edible fats with different compositions on SCD1 activity.
 Methods. High linoleic sunflower oil (HLSO), high (HOSO) and palm (PO) were used. rats fed fo...

This study was conducted to determine the fatty acid (FA) content in pasture grasses, legumes, and non-leguminous forbs northeast West Virginia. Grass, legume, forb plant material were collected from rotationally stocked pastures analyzed for crude protein (CP), linoleic (C18:2), α-linolenic (C18:3), total FA content. Species within botanical classes varied Forbs had highest (C18:2) followed by...

Bu araştırma, bazı aspir çeşitlerinin sulu ve kuru koşullarda yağ asidi kompozisyonunu belirlemek amacıyla 2019-2020, 2020-2021 yılları yetiştirme sezonlarında yürütülmüştür. Çalışma, Harran Üniversitesi Ziraat Fakültesi Tarla Bitkileri Bölümü deneme alanında tesadüf bloklarında bölünmüş parseller desenine göre üç tekerrürlü olarak kurulmuştur. Araştırmada, ana parselleri sulu-kuru, alt ise çeş...

The effects of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids on the growth of Bordetella pertussis strain 114 in defined medium were tested. Individual fatty acids were found to be either inhibitory or stimulatory to growth, depending on concentration. Myristic (C14), pentadecanoic (C15), and palmitic (C16) acids were the most inhibitory saturated fatty acids tested. B. pertussis 114 was extremely sens...
