This study aims at manufacturing structured lipids by chemical interesterification (CI) of beef tallow with corn, canola and safflower oils individually various blend ratios (60, 70, 80%) catalyst concentrations (0.75, 0.875, 1%). Several physical properties interesterified products were determined data analyzed using univariate multivariate statistical techniques. Interesterified more spreadab...

The physicochemical properties of oil and fat have considerable influence on their performances for various areas application. These properties, such as specific gravity, density, moisture content, free fatty acid, peroxide value, iodine acid saponification value etc., are important parameters assessing the quality could aid in identifying suitability be affected by different processing conditi...

Background: Vulvovaginal atrophy (VVA) usually occurs during and after menopause due to low estrogen levels can cause frustrating symptoms. Existing treatments such as compounds have undesired side effects. Objectives: This study was conducted assess the effectiveness of a chicken tallow product for vaginal use on subjective symptoms VVA in women with breast cancer. Methods: Menopause induced b...

A 111-d finishing study evaluated animal growth and carcass characteristics using 138 steers (366 kg) in a randomized complete block design with a 2 x 3 factorial arrangement of treatments. The dietary treatments consisted of no supplemental fat or 3.5% tallow or soybean oil soapstock (SS) fed with .6% and .9% dietary Ca. Fat increased DMI (P less than .05) but interacted with Ca level (P less ...

One hundred grams fat, based on blends of beef tallow and soya oil (0:100, 20:80, 40:60, 60:40, 80:20 and 100:0) which corresponded to dietary ratios of unsaturated to saturated fatty acids (U:S ratio) of 5.47, 3.23, 2.11, 1.45, 1.00 and 0.69, respectively, was incorporated into a rye-based broiler diet (610 g kgÿ1). All diets were tested without or with supplementation of a xylanase-containing...

The predominant saturated fatty acids (SFA) in human diets are lauric acid (LA, C12:0), myristic acid (MA, C14:0), palmitic acid (PA, C16:0) and stearic acid (SA, C18:0). The aim of this study was to investigate whether diets containing individual SFA together with excess simple carbohydrates induce osteoarthritis (OA)-like changes in knee joints and signs of metabolic syndrome in rats. Rats we...

this experiment was carried out to study the effects of different levels of canola meal of different fat sources on the egg quality, performance as well egg yolk cholesterol during the first 12 weeks of age in laying hens (hy-line w-36). throughout the experiment a total of 432 hens were employed in a completely randomized design in a factorial arrangement of 3×4, with three levels of canola me...
