fatty acids play important roles in biological systems and the newborns fatty acids requirements are covered only by the milk. it is of particular interest to qualify the content of the fatty acids in the milk. this study was performed to determine the levels of some fatty acids in the infant formulas and also to describe a method without derivatization for the fatty acids analysis and applying...

abstract        background and objective: measurement of amino acids is an important tool for metabolic studies and evaluation of patients’ clinical condition. the aim of this study was to analyze the plasma amino acids using reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography techniques (rp-hplc) with pre-column derivatization by o-phthalaldehyde (opa) in combination with 3- mercaptopropionic...

prostate cancer is the most common cancer in america and canada, and is the sixth most common cancer worldwide. dietary factors play an important role in prostate cancer development; one of them is dietary fat, particularly pufa intake. thus, this study aimed to review the current articles on the correlation between pufa and prostate cancer. we searched the pubmed database, and selected article...

changes in the fatty acid content, during frozen storage at -24°c of caspian kutum (rutilus frisii kutum), golden grey mullet (liza aurata), common carp (caprinus carpio), pike perch (sander lucioperca) and common kilka (clupeonella cultiventris caspia), caught from south caspian sea were studied in the present work. changes in saturated fatty acids (sfas), monounsaturated fatty acids (mufas), ...

the present study evaluated the effects of diets enriched in saturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3and n-6) on reproductive indices, metabolic hormones and metabolites prior to ram introduction in oestrussynchronized ewes. zel ewes (n=188) were assigned to 4 groups. ewes in the control group (con) did notreceive fat. ewes in the 3 other groups received 3% oil/dm/day of palmolein oil (pl...

chicken has been used as a suitable model for lipid metabolism studies, because dietary modifications especially dietary fat type can change chicken body composition. fats act as a condense source of energy and certain fatty acids such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (pufas) are required for both animal and human health. the n-3 pufas, especially, eicosapentaenoic acid (epa) and docosahexaenoic ...

the objectives of this study were to determine the effects of feeding rapeseed (27%, dm basis) and sunflower biodiesel by-products as protein supplements on fatty acid composition (fa), profile (ratios and indices),enzyme activitiesfrom thecarcassin lambs fed cereal-based diets. simultaneously, itwas examined the relationship between ingested fa and carcass fa. samples were obtaine dfrommal efa...

there is a great interest in developing rapid analytical methods and provide appropriate parametersfor quantitative analysis of compounds derived from refractory pollutants. such methods are important forroutine quality control analysis of an effluent before being discharged into the environment. therefore, a rapid methodology for identification and quantification of some aliphatic acids is pro...
