Twelve ileal cannulated pigs (30.9 ± 2.7 kg) were used to determine the apparent (AID) and standardized (SID) ileal digestibility of amino acids in canola meals derived from black(BNB) and yellow-seeded (BNY) Brassica napus canola and yellow-seeded Brassica juncea (BJY). The meals were produced using the conventional prepress solvent extraction process (regular meals) or a vacuum-assisted cold ...

Canola breeding program undertaken to improve meal quality has led to the development of canola quality (i.e., low glucosinolate, low erucic acid) form of B. juncea, a mustard species known for its pure yellow seed coat. Under Western Canadian conditions, B. juncea suffers less from heat and drought stress and matures earlier than B. napus, Such characteristics are the basis for high yields of ...

 The study aims to determine the influence of frying (shallow and deep) with olive, canola and sunflower oil on fatty acid composition of silver carp < /font>. Frying by olive oil and canola oil increased the monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) significantly (p < 0.05) that consequently decreased saturated fatty acids (SFA), polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and ω-3 fatty acids. Frying by sunfl...

BACKGROUND The objective was to determine the effect of prepartum diets supplemented with rolled canola seed (high in oleic acid) or sunflower seed (high in linoleic acid) on luteinizing hormone (LH) pulsatility and gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH)-induced LH release during early postpartum. METHODS Thirty-one pregnant Holstein cows, blocked by body condition score, parity and expected c...

Enrichment of live foods by essential nutrients such as highly unsaturated fatty acids is an important tool for improvement of larval fish quality. In this study, nutritional effects of Artemia urmiana enriched by fish and plant oils on growth, survival rate, body compositions and resistance against thermal, salinity and hypoxic stresses in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss were examined. Six ...

The present study was designed to determine the effects of supplemental fat or oil rich in oleic acid on the fatty acid profiles (FAP) and physical and sensory traits of pork carcasses. Sixty barrows and gilts were equally distributed among five dietary treatments consisting of a control diet of corn and soybean meal and four similar test diets that contained 10% animal fat (45.3 oleic), safflo...

Introduction. Edible oils containing > 60 % monoenoic acids (i. e. oleic acid), in particular olive oil and Canola oil have been shown to exhibit beneficial effects on lipid metabolism in human (LDL-cholesterol blood levels, triacylglycerol blood levels) within the last few years [1]. These findings are in contrast to earlier recommandations by nutrition experts who strongly favored high-linole...

Cotten, Bradley M. M.S., Purdue University, May 2015. Investigating the amino acid digestibility of alternative protein sources and determining the impact of dietary fiber on energy, nitrogen, and amino acid digestibility in growing pigs. Major Professor: Olayiwola Adeola. Three experiments were designed to quantify the nitrogen (N) and amino acid (AA) digestibility of various protein sources f...

BACKGROUND The oxidative deterioration of vegetable oils is commonly measured by the peroxide value, thereby not considering the contribution of individual lipid hydroperoxide isomers, which might have different bioactive effects. Thus, the formation of 9- and 13-hydroperoxy octadecadienoic acid (9-HpODE and 13- HpODE), was quantified after short-term heating and conditions representative of lo...
