BACKGROUND: Fat replacers are ingredients that can replace fat in many foods, therefore,many consumers have limited their dietry intake of fat and calories due to diet and health concerns. OBJECTIVES: The present study investigated the effect of modified starch on some physico-chemical and sensory properties of low fat Hamburger. METHODS: In this research, modified starch potato, tapioca (Acety...

purpose although the contribution of physique and body composition in soccer performance was recognized, these parameters of physical fitness were not well-studied in adolescent players. aim of this study was to investigate physique and body composition across adolescence. methods male adolescents (n=297 aged 12.01–20.98 y), classified into nine one-year age-groups, child (control group, n=16 a...

background: physical exercises can influence some anthropometric and fitness components differently. the aim of present study was to evaluate how a relatively long‑term training program in 11‑14‑year‑old male iranian students affects their anthropometric and motor performance measures. methods: measurements were conducted on the anthropometric and fitness components of participants (n = 28) pri...

purpose weight loss in wrestling has been found to be an interesting issue for researchers. in this regard, complications of weight loss in wrestlers before the competitions and their weight gain in course of competitions have been debated in previous studies. the objective of this study was to investigate the extent of weight gain and to estimate the percentage of body fat in participants in t...

blood samples were collected from the jugular vein of 101 clinically healthy iranian fat-tailed sheep according to their age (5 years) and sex. serum haptoglobin (hp) was measured based upon the preservation of the peroxidase activity of haemoglobin, which is directly proportional to the amount of hp. the reference value for serum hp of apparently healthy iranian fat-tailed sheep was 0.05-0.18 ...

percentages and yields of fat, crude protein (cp), true protein (tp) and non-protein nitrogen (npn) wereassessed in milk of four groups of holstein cows, at early, mid and late lactation (days in milk 20-70, 71-110, 111-150 and 151-210), on a diet rich in concentrates during a hot summer. four milk samples were taken from individual cows at 10-day intervals. milk fat percentages were close to b...

autologous fat transfer offers many qualities of a ideal soft tissue filler. main advantages of fat grafting ensue from the fact that the lipoaspirate tissue is an abundant source of regenerative pluripotential cells. however, the reported rates of fat cell survival vary greatly in the medical literature (10-90%). different techniques of harvesting, processing, and reinjecting the fat cells are...

fat necrosis is a benign inflammatory process which can involve adipose tissue anywhere in the body. a previous history of trauma or surgery may or may not be present. information about the clinical and radiological appearance of this lesion is very important because it can mimic breast cancer. in this article, we review the features of fat necrosis in different imaging modalities including mam...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of fat supplementation for enhancing milk conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in early lactation without affecting ruminal fermentation. 24 Holstein dairy cows were assigned to a completely randomized design employing a 2 × 4 factorial arrangement. Factors were particle size (15 and 25 mm) and two different sources of alfalfa supplemented with and wit...
