This paper focused on analysis of fatty acids of erythrocytes and blood plasma in patients with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. For the study, fatty acids ethyl esters, obtained during sample preparation from blood plasma and erythrocytes, were analyzed by capillary gas-liquid chromatography. Statistical analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney U test (p<0.05). The conducted research ...

In this study, seasonal variations in the fatty acid profiles of the liver and muscle of Squalius cephalus from Tödürge Lake were determined by Gas Chromatography (GC). C22:6 n-3, C20:5 n-3, C20:4 n-6, C18:1 n-9, C18:1 n-7, C16:1 n-7, C18:0 and C16:0 were the principal fatty acids showing the highest levels in the muscle and liver of Squalius cephalus in all seasons. Although C22:6 n-3, which i...

The effects of the use of essential oil of Rosmarinus officinalis on the chemical quality and fatty acids of fish fillets of Ctenopharyngodon idella were investigated during frozen storage at -18 ºC for 6 months. Fish fillets were divided into three groups; the control (C) without rosemary essential oil, the second group with 0.2 % rosemary essential oil (A) and the third with 0.4 % (v/v) rosem...

Changes in the plasma lipid composition are observed in patients and animals with malignancy and certain other diseases that are consistent with peroxidation of plasma lipoprotein lipids. These changes can be observed with water-suppressed proton (H-1) and carbon-13 (C-13) nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) and gas chromatography. Gas chromatography provides evidence of a decrease in...

In patients with active Crohn's disease and in a control group the fatty acid profiles in the whole lipid fraction of ileal and colonic mucosal biopsy specimens were determined by capillary gas chromatography. The biopsy specimens in Crohn's disease patients were taken from the inflamed terminal ileum as well as from the inflamed and macroscopically normal colon. Compared with controls the fatt...

Butter samples produced from cream (C) or yoghurt (Y) were evaluated for fatty acid (FA) composition and pesticide residues. The results showed that butter has a higher health-promoting index (HPI) compared to the overall acceptability scores at end of storage. contained 62.81 g 100 g-1 saturated, 3.50 monounsaturated, 2.44 polyunsaturated acids whereas 69.99 3.57 monounsaturated 2.81 acids, re...

Simple methods are described for the preparation of //-<ms-[l-14C]monounsaturated fatty acids and c is-[l-14C]monounsaturated fatty acids, each with a fairly uniform distribution o f positional isomers, which can serve as mixed substrates in biochemical studies. Methyl trans[ l 14C]octadecenoates and methyl ir<m.s-[l-14C]eicosenoates are prepared by partial catalytic hydrogenation of methyl [1-...

Anorexia nervosa is a model of simple starvation accompanied by secondary hyperlipoproteinemia. The pattern of plasma fatty acids influences the levels of plasma lipids and lipoproteins. The concentration of plasma lathosterol is a surrogate marker of cholesterol synthesis de novo, concentrations of campesterol and beta-sitosterol reflect resorption of exogenous cholesterol. The aim of the stud...
