Background and Objectives: Canola oil is very low in saturated fatty acid (~8 %), which makes it suitable for application as dressing for salad. Canola oil is liquid, thus its application in the production of margarine and shortening is limited. The present study provides information about the effects of monoacylglycerols (MAG) as the structuring agent on physical, microstructure and rheologica...

Canola oil is high in oleic acid which is commonly used for food and industrial purposes. To determine adaptability of spring canola (Brassica napus L.) to the High Plains for industrial oil production, 26 irrigated trials were conducted from 2005 to 2008. Trials were divided into five regions—1: 36–37◦N 108◦W; 2: 39–40◦N 101–103◦W; 3: 41–42◦N 102–103◦W; 4: 41–42◦N 104◦W; 5: 43–44◦N 106–108◦W. ...

The study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different dietary oil sources supplementation on laying hens' performance and fatty acids profile of egg yolks. Seventy-two 23-week-old laying hens (Tetra-SL) divided into six experimental diets (four replicates and three birds per replication) in a completely randomized design for nine weeks. Experimental diets were included: 1) control (no oi...

OBJECTIVES This study investigated the postprandial effect of components of the Mediterranean diet on endothelial function, which may be an atherogenic factor. BACKGROUND The Mediterranean diet, containing olive oil, pasta, fruits, vegetables, fish, and wine, is associated with an unexpectedly low rate of cardiovascular events. The Lyon Diet Heart Study found that a Mediterranean diet, which su...

This study was conducted to determine the effect of dietary turmeric rhizome powder (TRP) as a natural antioxidant, and soybean oil, canola oil and tallow on lipid metabolism, blood metabolites, immune system, and antioxidant status of broiler chickens before (BHS, 28 d) and after exposure to heat stress (AHS, 42 d). Seven hundred and ninety two d-old male Arian broilers were randomly allotted ...

bleaching process is an essential stage in the refining of vegetable oils and fats. in this process the colour and the primary and secondary oxidation products are removed by the treatment with the acid activated bleaching earth .the aim of this project is to understand the effect of bleaching on the physical characteristics and chemical constituents of neutralized canola and sunflower seed oil...

 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. 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 sunflow...

BACKGROUND Tocotrienols (T3) were neglected in the past; today, get attentions due to their antioxidant and none-antioxidant activity. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of the daily intake of 200 mg T3 added in canola oil over 8 weeks on microalbuminuria, inflammation, and nitrosative stress in type 2 diabetic patients. METHODS This study was a double-blinded, placebo-co...

eggs l A preliminary study showed that maximum enrichment of egg lipid with omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFA) had not occurred after about 5 days on dietary oil regimens. When cod liver oil, canola oil or linseed oil was added at 7% to layer diets for 12 weeks, production parameters were usually better than on the commercial layer diet; e g g w e i g h t was normally higher on the oi...
