background: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of conjugated lino-leic acid (cla) on apoptosis of tachyzoites of t . gondii , rh strain (type i) and the cyst-forming tehran strain (type ii) in vitro. methods: toxoplasma strains were injected into the peritoneal cavity of balb/c mice. the tehran strain forms cysts in the brain of mice. bradyzoites within the cysts are reactivated ...

Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is one of the most physiological active fatty acids due to its positive effect on  prevention of diseases such as obesity, hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis and cancer. The aim of this study was to optimize the production of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA)% in  alkali isomerization of safflower oil including  71% linoleic acid (LA)  using response surface methodology...

conjugated linoleic acids (cla) are natural constituents of meat and dairy products from ruminants, originating from bacterial biohydrogenation in the rumen. cla supplementation increases the health benefits of animal-derived foods. there are inconsistent reports of the effects of dietary cla on chicken’s performance; however, the majority of previous reports cite anti-lipogenic effects of cla....

25 26 27 28 29 30 This study describes a rapid method for identifying bacteria which convert free linoleic acid to conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). The method is based on the spectrophotometric detection of CLA and compares well to the standard GLC method. This method should facilitate the high throughput screening of bacterial isolates for the ability to produce conjugated fatty acids.

In this paper we describe a rapid method for identifying bacteria which convert free linoleic acid to conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). This method is based on spectrophotometric detection of CLA and compares well with the standard gas-liquid chromatography method. This method should facilitate high-throughput screening of bacterial isolates for the ability to produce conjugated fatty acids.

Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) are a group of linoleic acid isomers having double bonds in conjugated position, i. e. the double bonds are separated by one single bond. Two of the isomers: cis-9, trans-11 (c9, t11) and trans-10, cis-12 (t10, c12) CLA, have been shown to have biologically interesting properties. The c9, t11 CLA has been reported to have anticancer, antidiabetic and anti-inflamm...

Arginine and Conjugated Linoleic Acid Reduce Fat Mass in Rats. (May 2008) Jennifer Lynn Nall, B.S., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Stephen B. Smith This experiment tested the hypothesis that the combination of dietary conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) plus arginine will decrease fat accumulation and increase muscle mass. Twenty-four male Sprague Dawley rats were assigned to ...

Conjugated linoleic acid, better known as CLA, is a fatty acid derived from the required nutrient, linoleic acid. The major structural difference between linoleic acid (an 18 carbon, polyunsaturated fatty acid) and CLA, is that linoleic acid has double bonds at carbons 9 and 12 in a cis configuration (methylene interrupted), while CLA has numerous isomers without methylene interrupted conjugate...

Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) are natural constituents of meat and dairy products from ruminants, originating from bacterial biohydrogenation in the rumen. CLA supplementation increases the health benefits of animal-derived foods. There are inconsistent reports of the effects of dietary CLA on chicken’s performance; however, the majority of previous reports cite anti-lipogenic effects of CLA....

An article we wrote for the 1998 Illinois Dairy Report (Can Milk Fat be Beneficial to Your Health?) provided a brief description of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a minor component of milk fat. Briefly, CLA is a fatty acid that is synthesized in the rumen during biohydrogenation of linoleic acid (C18:2), the predominant fatty acid in vegetable oils. The pathway of biohydrogenation is C18:2 ? C...
