Reducing the ratio between essential fatty acids: C18:2 n-6/C18:3 n-3 down to 5 is recommended by Nutritional Guidelines. We studied the fatty acid (FA) changes in consumers' plasma following changes in livestock diet. First, a zootechnical study introduced 5% of extruded linseed into the diet of livestock to replace other oleaginous ingredients, and on an iso-nutritional values basis. The prod...

This research aimed to evaluate goat milk rich in Omega-3 PUFA from animals fed extruded flaxseed as a raw material produce fermented using beneficial lactobacilli. Experimental milks were produced Lacticaseibacillus paracasei Shirota and two potential probiotic lactobacilli, namely rhamnosus A2 FS109. The goats basal diet without any supplementation (CON) supplemented with 200 g/d of linseed (...

The aim of this study was to determine and compare in situ biohydrogenation (BH) fatty acids in three forms of soybeans and linseed (raw, extruded and roasted). Nylon bags (5×10 cm) containing 4 g of raw, extruded or roasted soybeans or raw, extruded or roasted linseed were incubated in the rumen of fistulated ewes for 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours. Results for linoleic acid (C18:2) showed tha...

Dietary linseed supply efficiently elevates the linolenic acid concentration of pork. The main problem of increasing the n-3 fatty acid tissue levels arises from a higher susceptibility to lipid oxidation. Increasing the saturation level of tissue lipids by the dietary inclusion of conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) or tallow might prevent oxidation. Thus, the aim of the study was to evaluate the ...

Four multiparous Holstein cows were used in a 4 x 4 Latin square experiment to study the effects of fat sources rich in omega-3 fatty acids on milk production and composition, follicular development, and prostaglandin secretion. All cows were fed a total mixed diet containing 60% grass silage and 40% concentrate. The four treatments were concentrates based either on Megalac, formaldehyde-treate...

To evaluate the influence of linseed and oregano dietary supplementation in Jonica kids, we carried out a trial that involved 30 male kids 20 days old, divided into three groups ten animals. Each group was ascribed to one following treatments: (C) control fed without any supplement; (L) feed containing 3% extruded (Linum usitatissimum); (L + O) diet with 0.6% dried (Origanum vulgare) linseed. T...

ABSTRACT The study aimed to evaluate the effects of linseed and oregano supplementation diet goats on fatty acid profile sensory properties Padraccio, a typical cheese produced during spring through summer in Basilicata region (southern Italy). Extruded dried inflorescences were integrated pelleted concentrate (500 g/head per day) 21 grazing that randomly assigned, 7 group, following e...

Linseed is an important oil crop cultivated worldwide for oil and fiber. Linseed oil has health benefits and disease preventive properties on coronary heart disease, some kinds of cancer, neurological and hormonal disorders. Linseed Linum usitattissimum family Linaceae) has been traditionally used as functional food. Linseed oil is the richest source of ALA, which makes about 55–60% of total fa...

limited data exist about the production of extruded linseed as a feed ingredient in farm animal nutrition. the objective of this study was to produce and evaluate extruded linseed mixed with alfalfa hay, pistachio by-products, and sugar beet pulp or corn grain in different proportions of linseed: alfalfa hay: pistachio by-products at ratios of 70:15:15, 70:20:10, 70:10:20, and 80:10:10 for qual...

This experiment studied the effect of a modest difference in diet structure value (SV) on milk conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) contents of cows fed diets supplemented with extruded linseed, in situations where the diets provided enough SV and therefore did not induce milk fat depression. Six lactating Holstein cows were used in a crossover design with two treatments ('SV 1.50' and 'SV 1.73') and...
