evaluation of four safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.) genotypes for oil content and fatty acidcomposition showed that oil content varied from 22.16 to 34.39% and the highest seed oilcontent was obtained from isfahan14 genotype (34.39%, respectively). among those fatty acidswere detected, linoleic acid (75.81- 77.86%) was the predominant fatty acid followed by oleic(12.57–13.75%), palmitic (6.0...

gundelia tournefortii l. is a well known plant in mountains of iran and is found all over the country. it traditionally has some medicinal applications. in this research, gundelia tournefortii l. seed was studied as a source of edible oil. oil was extracted with immersion method using diethyl ether as a solvent. acidity, saponification, ester, iodine, peroxide and refractive indices, average mo...

effects of partial docking on feedlot performance and body fat characteristics were studied in a fat-tailed sheep breed. thirty-eight male lambs with an average weight of 4.44 ± 0.48 were randomly divided into two groups. the lambs in one group were partially docked at 3-4 h after birth, using rubber rings, and the lambs in another group remained intact (control). after weaning, 20 male lambs f...

different layers of acorn (quercus infectoria), hull, seed coat and seed kernel were analyzed for determination of chemical composition. the results of the preliminary analysis showed that acorn contained more than 65% carbohydrates, 8% lipid and 10% tannin among other constituents. the fatty acid composition of the seed oil was determined using thin layer chromatography and comparing with ...

abstract: olives belong to the family of olea europaea l. is a popular fruit tree. the fruit and the oil extracted from it is consumed worldwide particularly in the mediterranean regions. in this study changes in the fatty acid composition of the oil extracted from olive fruit during the course of maturation is investigated. this work is concerned with the best harvesting point when oleic acid ...

an 8-week feeding experiment was carried out on beluga (huso huso) juvenile to evaluate the effects of different levels of fish oil containing n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acids (n-3 hufas) on fish growth and fatty acid composition. the requirements of beluga juvenile for n-3 hufas were studied by feeding fish diets containing six different levels of n-3 hufas ranging from 1.56 to 17.25% (% of ...

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of low-dose gamma irradiation (0, 1, 3 and 5 kGy) on fatty acid composition of Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) fillet. Among all of the fatty acids, oleic acid (C18:1) (with mean 33.50±3.02 g/100 g fatty acids) and myristoleic acid (C14:1) (with mean 0.41±0.26 g/100 g fatty acids) were the most predominant and the lowest fatty acids in ...

the aim of this study was to determine the fatty acid and mineral composition in bone of 3 pelagic fish: gold stripe sardine (sardinella gibbosa), anchovy kilka (clupeonella engrauliformis) and indian anchovy (stolephorus indicus). fatty acid profiles showed that total saturated fatty acid have no significant differences in 3 species. the content of total mono saturated fatty acids in anchovy k...
