In this study changes in fatty acids profile during frozen storage at -18°C of Cobia (Rachycentron canadum), caught from the Persian Gulf (Bandar Abbas) were studied. Changes in saturated fatty acids (SFAs), monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), EPA+DHA/C16, n-3 PUFA/n-6 PUFA (n-3/n-6) and polyunsaturated fatty acids /saturated fatty acids (PUFA/SFA) were i...

the aim followed in this study was to investigate the effects of soybean oil (high in c18:2 n-6, an omega-6 fatty acid) and fish oil (high in epa 20:5 n-3 and dha 22:6 n-3, omega-3 fatty acids) on meat quality and on the fatty acid profiles in goat kids. twenty-four male kids were allocated through stratified randomization and on the basis of body weight (19.43±1.2 kg) into three equal groups. ...

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of low-dose gamma irradiation (0, 1, 3 and 5 kGy) on fatty acid composition of Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) fillet. Among all of the fatty acids, oleic acid (C18:1) (with mean 33.50±3.02 g/100 g fatty acids) and myristoleic acid (C14:1) (with mean 0.41±0.26 g/100 g fatty acids) were the most predominant and the lowest fatty acids in ...

milk fat is frequently adulterated to meet the demand which exceeds the supply and to increase profit margins. samples of butter adulterated with different levels (5, 10 and 15% w/w) of margarine were prepared and analysed using different methods including refractive index, iodine, reichert-meissl and polenske values. gc and hplc were utilized to determine fatty acid and tocol profiles of sampl...

The aim of this study was to compare blood fatty acid profiles of two population groups: Italian and Tibetan, differing with regard to ethnic, life style and environmental aspects. Additionally the collection of two staple foods provided the opportunity to analyze typical Tibetan dishes. A new, simple, rapid, and substantially non invasive method for fatty acid (FA) analysis of blood lipids was...

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...

Cellular fatty acids of Helicobacter pylori have taxonomic, physiological, and pathogenic implications. However, little is known about the fatty acid composition under various culture conditions. H. pylori is usually grown on blood-supplemented complex media, and the fatty acids in the blood may affect the fatty acids in the cells. In addition, frequently subcultivated laboratory-adapted strain...

Functional traits determine the occurrence of species along environmental gradients and their coexistence with other species. Understanding how traits evolved among coexisting species helps to infer community assembly processes. We propose fatty acid composition in consumer tissue as a functional trait related to both food resources and physiological functions of species. We measured phylogenet...
