For a number of years, lipid emulsions have been used in the nutritional support of surgical and critically ill patients, with the aim of supplying substrates to meet energy demands and providing building blocks for wound healing and tissue repair. Traditionally, these emulsions have been based on soyabean oil, which is rich in the n-6 PUFA linoleic acid (18 : 2n-6). More recently, the impact o...

Thin layer chromatography (TLC) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) techniques are proposed for qualitative analysis of lubricating oil additives (Hitec 2915). The additives were dissolved in heptanes, extracted with mixed solvents heptane: acetonitrile (3:2) and spotted on TLC paper. The best combination solvents as developer for TLC analysis were carbon tetrachloride: heptanes (9...

Soyabean oil-based emulsions high in linoleic acid used in parenteral nutrition (PN) could interfere with immune function and may increase the risk of septic complications. Olive oil-based emulsions, high in oleic acid, could have fewer immune effects. We compared the effects of a soyabean oil-based emulsion v. an olive oil-based emulsion on infection rate, appearance of new infection episodes,...

We investigated the effect of extra virgin (EV) olive oil and genetically modified (GM) soybean on DNA, cytogenicity and some antioxidant enzymes in rodents. Forty adult male albino rats were used in this study and divided into four groups. The control group of rodents was fed basal ration only. The second group was given basal ration mixed with EV olive oil (30%). The third group was fed basal...

Soyabean might be considered as the most popular oil seed crop in the world and the extracted oil has gained it is popularity due to it is application in formulated food products as well as by itself as oil or hardened form as frying or cooking media. Soyabean oil has been subjected to various refining stages in particular deodorisation where different classes of compounds are collected in the ...

The biological properties of plant oils are improved by their conversion to nanoemulsions (NEs). This study evaluated the antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-hemolytic efficacy coconut salad rocket NEs. result gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy analysis showed varied constituents such as palmitic acid, trimethylsilyl ester; 2,3-bis(acetyloxy)propyl laurate in oil, 2-lauro-1,3-didecoin, n-but...

The effects of frying unripe plantain and sweet potato (separately) in soyabean oil on the properties of the oil were investigated. Also, the effect of the degradation of the oil on biodiesel yield obtained from the oil was considered. Physico-chemical properties of soyabean oil (acid value, saponification value, viscosity, density, colour) were measured daily after being used for frying for da...

Lipids traditionally used in artificial nutrition are based on n-6 fatty acid-rich vegetable oils like soyabean oil. This may not be optimal because it may present an excessive supply of linoleic acid. One alternative to the use of soyabean oil is its partial replacement by fish oil, which contains n-3 fatty acids. These fatty acids influence inflammatory and immune responses and so may be usef...

In this study, the main task is to identify best cutting parameters improve machining performance during MQL-turning with various fluids like coconut oil, ground nut sunflower soyabean and blassocut oil. Cutting temperature surface roughness were used as metrics, goal of minimizing these responses. To construct an experimental plan for turning AISI4130 uncoated brazed carbide, full factorial de...
