Linseed is one of the oilseed crops introduced earlier in Ethiopia and currently grown widely next to sesame noug. The demand for linseed oil production home consumption increased needs enhancement by providing ideal varieties growers. objective current study was evaluate performance newly released agroecology West Shewa zone Oromia region identify highest yielders a stable variety farmers area...

Hydroxymethylstearates were made by hydroformylation or oxo reaction of monoand polyunsaturated fats and esters with either rhodium-triphenylphosphine or cobalt carbonyl catalysts. Rhodium-oxo products were hydrogenated with nickel catalyst, whereas, cobalt-oxo products were heated directly under hydrogen pressure. Hydroxymethyl fatty alcohols also were prepared by a two-step copper-cmomite hyd...

This study was aimed to determine the effect of feeding lambs diets with different proportions of double-low rapeseed and linseed and their supplementation with vitamin E on selected parameters of health quality of lamb meat. Lambs were fattened intensively to 30–35 kg body weight with a standard diet and experimental diets containing 10% full-fat rapeseed and linseed at a 2:1 or 1:1 ratio, wit...

The components of flax (Linum usitatissimum) stems are described and illustrated, with reference to the anatomy and chemical makeup and to applications in processing and products. Bast fiber, which is a major economic product of flax along with linseed and linseed oil, is described with particular reference to its application in textiles, composites, and specialty papers. A short history of ret...

Novel self-repairing Urea-Phenol-Formaldehyde (UPF) microcapsules containing linseed oil were prepared via in-situ polymerization in an oil-in-water emulsion. The main purpose of encapsulation is to control the release of linseed oil, when external conditions such as mechanical stress or energy cause microcapsules to break. These controlled release mechanisms of linseed oil make them suitable f...

The effects of feeding different levels of whole linseed on fatty acid (FA) composition of muscles and adipose tissues of goat were investigated. Twenty-four Crossed Boer bucks were assigned randomly into three treatment diets: L0, L10, or L20, containing 0%, 10%, or 20% whole linseed, respectively. The goats were slaughtered after 110 days of feeding. Samples from the longissimus dorsi, supras...

Extruded cereal snacks are usually deficient in protein, mineral ingredients, valuable fatty acids. With the rise of health awareness among consumers, food manufacturers and scientists are pressed to take measures in order to develop new functional/health-beneficial foods. The aim of this work was to manufacture extruded crisps enriched with α-linolenic acid (obtained from linseed oil) and to o...

Two experiments were conducted in order to determine the effect of dietary fatty acid profile on deposition of body fat, carcass fat, and separable fat depots. Diets with four types of fat (tallow, olive, sunflower, and linseed oils) at an inclusion level of 10% were administered to female broiler chickens. In Experiment 1, total body fat, carcass fat (total body fat minus abdominal fat), and a...

Twenty-five mature Small Tail Han ewes were used to investigate the effects of supplemental oilseeds in the diet (sunflower seed, safflower seed, rapeseed, and linseed) on fatty acid composition in different tissues (longissimus lumborum muscle, tail fat, subcutaneous back fat and kidney fat). Averaged over tissue, safflower and sunflower seed was most effective (P<0.05) in enhancing the concen...
