The chemical composition variations of the Indian mackerel (Rastrelliger kanagurta) from Karachi coast were investigated seasonally over the period of one year (2004-2005).  Moisture, crude protein, fat and ash contents varied from 70.11-74.41%, 16.02- 20.09%, 3.0-12%, and 0.89-1.35% respectively. The seasonal data indicated that the main fatty acids of the total lipid were C16:0, C16:1, C18:0,...

  Eviscerated sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax were irradiated by Cobalt-60 at commercial irradiation facility at dose of 2.5 and 5 kGy at 2–4°C. The influences of the irradiation on proximate, fatty acid and amino acid composition in cultured sea bass were investigated. Significant differences (P < 0.0.5) were found between non-irradiated and irradiated sea bass in terms of moisture, protein, fa...

The present work was conducted to investigate the chemical composition (amino acid, mineral content, and lipid profile) of bones from three different Iranian pelagic fish species. The biochemical composition of Sardinella gibbosa, Clupeonella engrauliformis and Stolephorus indicus bones captured from the Iranian Ocean (the Oman Sea and Caspian Sea) were determined. The analysis of amino acids a...

in this study, the oil yield, fatty acid (fa) composition and the physicochemical and quality characteristics of salvia macrosiphon crude seed oil were determined. the main fatty acids ranked in the following order of abundance: α- linolenic acid> linoleic acid> oleic acid. the n3 /n6 fa ratio and polyunsaturated fa/ saturated fa ratio were 1.6 and 7.23, respectively. the fa composition reveale...

seasonal variation of fatty acids composition of milk and various milk products have been subjected to many investigations.however ,most of the researches are concerned with a single product and apparantly there is no inforation about the extent and the factors which contribute to changes in fatty acids composition of lipids in the process of ghee-making by the  traditional methods.thus compara...

lipids play an important role in maintaining human health. thermal process cause to changes in nutritional value as well as changes in the profile of fatty acids in fish. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of frying on chemical composition and profile of fatty acids is fish shaary. for doing this project, 10 kg of the fish were purchased from the market of behbahan and with ice we...

Background: Mastitis in sheep caused by Staphylococcus spp. is a serious concern for dairy farming. Aims: The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of the intramammary infection (IMI) caused by Staphylococcus spp. on the long-chain fatty acid profile and composition of ewe’s milk. Methods: The experiment was conducted in a herd of Zoslachtena Valaska sheep. Half-udder milk samples ...
