in this study, chemical composition, fatty acid (fa) profile and oil characteristics of seeds of salvia leriifolia benht collected from different regions of iran. all samples were rich in oil (24-28.5% dry weight basis), protein (24.5-28.5%) and crude fiber (13.1-16.6%). the mean values for ca, p, k, mg, fe, mn, cu, na and zn were found at the levels of 3866, 2970, 3141, 2584, 57, 18.5, 9.0, 10...

the objectives of this study were to determine the effects of feeding rapeseed (27%, dm basis) and sunflower biodiesel by-products as protein supplements on fatty acid composition (fa), profile (ratios and indices),enzyme activitiesfrom thecarcassin lambs fed cereal-based diets. simultaneously, itwas examined the relationship between ingested fa and carcass fa. samples were obtaine dfrommal efa...

BACKGROUND & AIMS The biological role of fatty acids (FA) in the perinatal period is under active investigation. We here describe the application of a simplified microanalytical procedure to compare the FA profile of maternal, umbilical cord and infant whole blood, inclusive of all circulating lipid fractions and cells. METHODS The FA composition has been analyzed with a micromethod in 16 tri...

Caloric restriction (CR) ameliorates cardiac dysfunction associated with obesity. However, most of the studies have been performed under severe CR (30-65% caloric intake decrease) for several months or even years in aged animals. Here, we investigated whether mild (20% food intake reduction) and short-term (2-weeks) CR prevented the obese cardiomyopathy phenotype and improved the metabolic prof...

The lipid composition of five species of green seaweeds (Chaetomorpha linum, Rhizoclonium riparium, Ulva intestinalis, Ulva lactuca, and Ulva prolifera) grown in fish pond aquaculture systems was studied. In particular, the overall fatty acid (FA) profile and the FA profile of each main lipid class found in these seaweed species were thoroughly analyzed. It was found that every seaweed had a sp...

Introduction: Treatment of lung diseases is one of the major healthcare challenges. Ferulic acid (FA), a phenolic compound with well-established antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, has shown promising therapeutic potential against the pulmonary disorders; however, low bioavailability may negatively affect its efficiency. This, prompted us to incorporate FA into the nanostructured ...

BACKGROUND Mammalian spermatozoa are characterized by a high proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), but reliable data concerning dietary effects on fatty acid (FA) profile in ram's sperm and the persistency of FA in the ration to the FA in sperm has not been reported. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the stability of saturated and unsaturated FAs in ram's sperm desp...

1. The impact of feeding sources n-3 fatty acids (FA) to ISA Brown and Shaver white breeders their offspring on antibody titres plasma FA profile was examined. 2. Breeders were fed eithe...
