a total of 700 day old female broiler chicks (ross 308) were distributed into seven groupsin acompletely randomized designwith five replicates, and 20 chicks in each replicate. dietary treatments, timeof the switch from an unsaturated sunflower oil (sfo) to a saturated tallow (t)dietary fat source, were: 1) sfo for the entire growth period (6 weeks), 2) sfo for 5 weeks followed byt for last wee...

Tallow is a less economical and underutilized animal's fat. In fact, tallow comprises triglycerides from several fatty acids which support skin protection by increasing moisture preventing dryness. The use of in soap manufacturing will gain its interest enhance value added. this study, solid soaps are prepared using as raw materials adding kefir curd goat milk. This study analyzed the physicoch...

Prostaglandins and related compounds are active mediators of inflammation, but data concerning their role in the pathogenesis of the glomerulonephritis of New Zealand Black x New Zealand White (NZB x NZW) F1 mice are conflicting. Dietary eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, C20:5), a fatty acid analogue of arachidonic acid (C20:4), has been shown to impair platelet aggregation in humans, apparently thro...

Evaluating the physical, mechanical and morphological properties of calcium-alginate films coated with sunflower oil or tallow fat

Chinese tallow (Sapium sebiferum L.) is a promising landscape and bioenergy plant. Measuring gene expression by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) can provide valuable information on gene function. Stably expressed reference genes for normalization are a prerequisite for ensuring the accuracy of the target gene expression level among different samples. However, the refer...

the present study has been focused on the acid and base transesterification of animal fats (dairy cow and beef) to produce biodiesel by varying process parameters such as catalyst amount, catalyst nature, reaction time and temperature. the maximum biodiesel yield after acid catalysis was 94.1 ± 2.43 and 98.4 ± 2.3 percent for dairy cow and beef tallow, respectively. the quantity of biodiesel ob...

Four in vitro trials were conducted to determine how ruminal fermentation is affected by source of fat, level of fat, and combinations of fatty acids. Trials I and II examined how volatile fatty acids (VFA) were changed by three sources of fat (blended animal-vegetable fat, corn oil and tallow fatty acids) each added to a hay substrate at six levels (0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10%). Increasing blended f...

I . Tridodecyl glyceryl ether (I ,z,3-tridodecoxypropane) was prepared and purified for use as a lipid-soluble indicator of fat absorption. It was separated from other lipids present in samples of diet, digesta and faeces by thin-layer chromatography and determined by gasliquid chromatography. 2. In balance studies using rats which received a semi-purified diet containing beef tallow, 97-98 "/o...
