The aim of this study was to obtain a basic knowledge of the fatty acid compositions and consequently, determination of diet for Turbo coronatus by means of fatty acids biomarkers. Samples were collected during a year (April, July, October 2007 and February 2008) in coastal areas of Chabahar Bay in Oman Sea. Biomarker fatty acids revealed that diet of Turbo coronatus included phytoplankton, zoo...

Introduction: Gastric cancer is the fourth common cancer and the second leading cause of death from cancer worldwide. Omega fatty acids are a group of non-saturated fatty acids of long chains derive from linolenic, linoleic and oleic fatty acids. The current study aimed at examining the possible effects of oral administration of omega-3, -6 and -9 fatty acids on gastric cancer cell apoptosis in...

milk and dairy products are in diet almost every day. milk fat contains 70% of saturated fatty acids which can cause an increase in total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and the risk of cardiovascular diseases. therefor, modification of fat composition at dairy products such as yoghurt seems necessary. walnut has high amount of essential fatty acids, anti oxidants and other beneficial ...

The total lipid content and composition of fatty acids of the liver and muscles of wild and cultured male and female Acanthopagrus latus were determined by gas-liquid chromatography. There were quantitative differences between individual fatty acids in the tissues investigated depending on sex and location. In all the samples studied, sex and location considered, the principle saturated fatty a...

The process called biohydrogenation occurs mainly in ruminant animals and during it, unsaturated fatty acids, and particularly poly-unsaturated ones (linoleic and linolenic) coverts to a saturated form of stearic acid. For many years, the beneficial effects of biohydrogenation intermediate fatty acids like cis-9 trans-11 linoleic acid, the main natural isomer of conjugated linoleic acids (CLA),...

Fatty acids composition in edible parts of Blue Swimming Crab (Portunus pelagicus) caught in the Persian Gulf close to the Bushehr Province were investigated. Among saturated fatty acids (SFA), the 16:0 and 18:0 fatty acids were the most two dominant fatty acids in meat tissues that analyzed. 18:1n-9 and 16:1n-7 were the major fatty acids among the MUFAs of male and female crab. The main PUFAs ...
