Soybean oil and palm olein were used to fry French fries, chicken leg fillets and pork chops. Total polar compounds were measured by column chromatography and two rapid-measuring devices (Ebro FOM 310 and Testo 270). Acid value was determined by titration method and a 3M Shortening Monitor. The results showed that the content of total polar compounds and acid value in both soybean oil and palm ...

Strain improvement and medium optimization to increase the productivity of spiramycin were carried out. Of oil tolerant mutant strains screened, one mutant, Streptomyces ambofaciens XC 2-37, produced 9% more spiramycin than the parent strain S. ambofaciens XC 1-29. The effects of soybean oil and propyl alcohol on spiramycin production with S. ambofaciens XC 2-37 were studied. The potency of S. ...

BACKGROUND In cell systems, saturated fatty acids, compared to unsaturated fatty acids, induce a greater degree of ER stress and inflammatory signaling in a number of cell types, including hepatocytes and adipocytes. The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of infusions of lard oil (enriched in saturated fatty acids) and soybean oil (enriched in unsaturated fatty acids) on live...

We hypothesized that supplementing finishing diets with palm oil would promote adipogenic gene expression and stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) gene expression in subcutaneous (s.c.) and intramuscular (i.m.) adipose tissues of feedlot steers. Eighteen Angus and Angus crossbred steers were assigned to three groups of 6 steers and fed a basal diet (control), with 3% palm oil, or with 3% soybean oil, ...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the cardiac biomarker changes in experimental bilateral ovariectomized (OVX) rats in addition to evaluating the role of soybean oil-supplemented diet to attenuate these alterations. Female rats were divided into four groups and treated for 2 months as follows: groups 1 and 2 fed with standard diet with or without 15% soybean oil. Groups 3 and 4 we...

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] seed are valued for their protein and oil content. Soybean somatic embryos cultured in Soybean Histodifferentiation and Maturation (SHaM) medium were examined for their suitability as a model system for developing an understanding of assimilate partitioning and metabolic control points for protein and oil biosynthesis in soybean seed. This report describes the g...

Home parenteral nutrition (PN) is associated with many complications including severe hepatobiliary dysfunction. Commercial ω-6 fatty acid-soybean based-lipid emulsions in PN may mediate long term PN associate liver disease (PNALD) whereas ω-3-fish oil parenteral emulsions have shown to reverse PNALD in children. However, its clinical effectiveness in adults has been scarcely reported. In this ...

Three phase partitioning, a method generally used for protein separation, has been evaluated for extraction of oil from soybean. 82% oil was extracted within 1 h using this process which required simultaneous addition of t-butanol (1:1, v/v) and 30% ammonium sulphate to the soybean slurry.
