Phase angle and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in sickle cell disease.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Phase angle, an impedance parameter used for nutritional assessment, is reflective of the capacitance properties of cell membranes. We have shown a significant correlation between the proportions of specific n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in the serum phospholipids of Nigerian children with sickle cell disease and their phase angles determined by bioelectrical impedance analysis.

Changes of fatty acid profiles in fillets of Cobia (Rachycentron canadum) during frozen storage
In this study changes in fatty acids profile during frozen storage at -18°C of Cobia (Rachycentron canadum), caught from the Persian Gulf (Bandar Abbas) were studied. Changes in saturated fatty acids (SFAs), monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), EPA+DHA/C16, n-3 PUFA/n-6 PUFA (n-3/n-6) and polyunsaturated fatty acids /saturated fatty acids (PUFA/SFA) were i...

متن کاملMetabolic Effects of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Chickens: A Review
Chicken has been used as a suitable model for lipid metabolism studies, because dietary modifications especially dietary fat type can change chicken body composition. Fats act as a condense source of energy and certain fatty acids such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are required for both animal and human health. The n-3 PUFAs, especially, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic ...
متن کاملSeasonal variations of ω3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in muscle of Capoeta caelestis
In this study, seasonal variations of fatty acid amounts in muscle tissues of Capoeta caelestis were investigated. We have found that the ω3 contents of C. caelestis in spring, summer, autumn and winter were 17.43%, 15.29%, 17.54%, 13.63% in female and 16.96%, 19.25%, 18.66%, 14.76% in male, respectively. The amounts of ω3 polyunsaturated fatty acids were higher than those of ω6 polyunsaturated...
