Physical and chemical changes were compared with soybean oil, corn oil, cottonseed oil , rice oil, rapeseed oil, lard, palm oil and coconut oil in continuous water spraying and heating system (Table -1 , Fig,-1•`4). Thermal oxidative changes such as viscosity increasing ratio, carbonyl and iodine value , showed close relation with the initial iodine value of these oils. However, in coconut oil ...

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...

Five methods using aqueous/organic solvents for the separation of proteins from oils were compared. The extraction with acetone-hexane followed by amino acid analysis was found to be the most suitable method for isolation and quantification of proteins from oils. The detection limit of the method was 0.18 mg protein/kg oil, and the quantification limit was 0.6 mg protein/kg. The relative repeat...

Erucic acid is a valuable industrial fatty acid with many applications. The main producers of this acid are today high erucic rapeseed (Brassica napus) and mustard (Brassica juncea), which have 45%-50% of erucic acid in their seed oils. Crambe abyssinica is an alternative promising producer of this acid as it has 55%-60% of erucic acid in its oil. Through genetic modification (GM) of three gene...

The aim of this study was to determine the fatty acid profile of apple seed oil and its effects on the caecal functions, blood lipids, and markers of antioxidant status and inflammation in rats. A nutritional experiment was performed on Wistar rats allocated to 3 groups of 8 animals each. The animals were fed with a diet containing different sources of fat: pork lard (group LA), rapeseed oil (g...

rapeseed is one of the important oilseeds, as its oil ranks second in the world after soybean. the rapeseed cultivation has been increased recently in iran. drying of seeds to a safe moisture level is necessary for storage of oilseeds before processing. rapeseed drying conditions affect the seed quality, total oil and germination capacity. hence in this research the effects of different tempera...

Efficient molecular markers for the selection of rapeseed genetic materials with high seed oil content and ideal fatty acid (FA) composition are preferred by rapeseed breeders. Recently, we reported the molecular mechanism of TRANSPARENT TESTA 2 (TT2) in inhibiting seed FA biosynthesis in Arabidopsis. However, evidence showing the association of rapeseed TT2 homologs and seed FA production are ...
