Introduction: Gastric cancer is the fourth common cancer and the second leading cause of death from cancer worldwide. Omega fatty acids are a group of non-saturated fatty acids of long chains derive from linolenic, linoleic and oleic fatty acids. The current study aimed at examining the possible effects of oral administration of omega-3, -6 and -9 fatty acids on gastric cancer cell apoptosis in...

Carboxylic acid esters react with hydroxylamine in alkaline solution to form hydroxamic acids. These acids produce a red to violet reaction with ferric chloride which has been utilized by Feigl (1949) for the microchemical detection of carboxylic acid derivatives. Lipmann and Tuttle (1945) developed a method for the quantitative assay of acylphosphates by allowing hydroxylamine to react with th...

 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...

Post fish oil(n-3 fatty acids) treatment (5mg/kg/day for 12 days) was effective in bringing the reversal of tobramycin (160mg/kg/day,ip for 12 days) induced nephrotoxicity in albino rats as was evident by normal urea, creatinine, cholesterol and inorganic phosphate levels in the serum of the treatment group compared with group receiving tobramycin only. The return of normal levels of alkaline a...

Greater amounts of physical activity (PA) and omega-3 fatty acids have both been independently associated with better cognitive performance. Because of the overlapping biological effects of omega-3 fatty acids and PA, fatty acid intake may modify the effects of PA on neurocognitive function. The present study tested this hypothesis by examining whether the ratio of serum omega-6 to omega-3 fatt...

The aim of the research was to determine lipid metabolism indices and fatty acid profile in the blood serum of Ross 308 chickens (n = 48), fed a finisher mixture supplemented with 0, 0.25, 0.5 and 1.0% of lignocellulose. The feeding trial lasted from 21 to 42 d of the birds’ age. Blood samples were collected from each chicken at 42d of age from the pterygoid canal vein. In the blood serum the c...

We developed a method for determining individual free fatty acids in serum by using a modified one-step Dole extraction, derivatization, and a new high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) separation. Sample handling is minimized to a single transfer of the fatty acids (upper layer of the Dole extract), which are readily derivatized at 85 degrees C with p-bromophenacyl bromide without sign...

Backgrounds: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is the most common metabolic disease and free fatty acids, as signaling molecules, can play a crucial role in the development of it. Different free fatty acids, through various cell membrane receptors, induce different effects on metabolic pathways and thereby affect insulin sensitivity. Simvastatin is a cholesterol decreasing drug prescrib...

We have studied the binding of long-chain free fatty acids (FFA) to crystalline bovine serum albumin (BSA) that had been extracted with charcoal to remove endogenous fatty acids. The data were analyzed in terms of a model consisting of six high-energy binding sites and a large number of
