Background: Fatty acids are known to be critically important in multiple biological functions. Phospholipid fatty acids of follicular fluid, an important microenvironment for the development of oocytes, may contribute to the women’s fertility and the efficacy of assisted reproduction techniques. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of fatty acid composition of follicular fluid ph...

abstract: using agricultural waste is one of the best ways to reduce the costs and the environmental pollution. button mushroom´s stipe is a cheap by-product that is rich in nutrients for human nutrition. the purpose of this study is to compare the nutritional value of cap and stipe of button mushroom (agaricus bisporus). the caps were separated from the stipes after harvesting and parameters s...

Background and Objectives: Breast milk composition is affected by several factors such as maternal diet and body mass index. Milk fats include a major calorie content of the milk, which changes dramatically throughout the lactation. The aim of the present study was to assess breast milk fatty acid profile in overweight and obese mothers and its correlations with maternal body mass index. Mater...

Background: Co-supplementation of unsaturated fatty acids (FAs) with saturated FAs may decrease the adverse effects of saturated FA-induced lipotoxicity. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of palmitoleic acid (unsaturated fatty acid) on palmitic acid (saturated fatty acid) induced lipotoxicity criteria in the primary culture of adult rat cardiomyocytes. Methods: Ce...

in order to investigate the effect of different ratios of ammonium: nitrate on the photosynthesis and fatty acid composition in canola (brassica napus l.) under different levels of salinity, an experiment was conducted as a factorial based on complete randomize design at agricultural research center in east azerbaijan in 2010. the first factor was different ratios of nitrogen sources to ammoniu...

objectives the link between dietary fat and heart disease has been established for decades. although, the atherogenic effect of saturated fatty acids is somehow controversial, the cardioprotective effects of polyunsaturated fatty acids (pufa) are clearly documented. this study investigated the effects of different dietary oils on serum fatty acid composition in rat. methods six week male wistar...

in this study, both the presence and concentration of some unsaturated compounds in hexane extracts of different parts of anthemis talyschensis showing absorption at wavelength 280-450 nm were surveyed, with the view of possibly using extracts of this plant in new formulations of sunscreen creams. the hexane extracts of flower, leaf and stem of a. talyschensis , collected from northwest iran, w...

the objective of this study was to determine the effects of feeding different levels of monensin on feed intake, milk production and composition, and milk fattyacid profile in lactating holstein cows. four multiparous cows averaging 517 ± 47 (sd) kg in body weight and 101 ± 19.8 (sd) days in milk were housed individually in tie-stalls. the study was conducted as a 4 × 4 latin square design for ...

date is one of the world’s oldest food-producing plants wich has always played an important role in the economy and social life. various researchers examined chemical composition and nutritional values of edible parts of dates while limited information about chemical composition and nutritional quality of date seed is available. in this study, fatty acid composition and total tocopherol content...
