Background & Aim: Purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.), belongs to the Portulacaceace family, grows in many parts of Iran. Results of previous studies were indicated purslane is a rich source of essential fatty acids of omega-3 and omega-6.  Portulaca oleracea is a widespread weed, being the eighth common plants of the world. The Aim of current study was to compare the essential f...

In this study, seasonal variations in the fatty acid profiles of the liver and muscle of Squalius cephalus from Tödürge Lake were determined by Gas Chromatography (GC). C22:6 n-3, C20:5 n-3, C20:4 n-6, C18:1 n-9, C18:1 n-7, C16:1 n-7, C18:0 and C16:0 were the principal fatty acids showing the highest levels in the muscle and liver of Squalius cephalus in all seasons. Although C22:6 n-3, which i...

  Background: High consumption of fatty acids is known as a dietary risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. The aim of study was to survey of fatty acid profiles in the traditional/fast foods commonly consumed in Iran. Methods: Gas chromatography was used in the present study to determine the composition of fatty acids in 40 most popular traditional/fast foods consumed in Isfahan, Iran. The f...

Kilka fish are known as the main industrial and pelagic species of Iran that are captured abundantly in the southern Caspian Sea. This study was conducted to survey the effectiveness of refinement steps on Kilka (Clupeonella delicatula) crude oil quality and fatty acid profiles. Neutralization, bleaching, winterization and deodorization were performed on crude oil with deodorization done under ...

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...

background: omega-3 fatty acids have established beneficial effects for cardiovascular disease. the use of omega-3 supplements for patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) was proposed. the purpose of this study was to review the relationship between omega-3 fatty acids intake and nafld. methods: in this study, the terms such as nafld, omega-3 fatty acids, docosahexanoic acid, an...

present study was conducted to find the variations in fatty acid profile between muscle and liver of male and female of schizothorax zarudnyi. totally, 18 fatty acids of saturated, mono-unsaturated and poly-unsaturated fatty acids were found in both male and female of s. zarudnyi. palmitic acid (c16:0), palmitoleic acid (c16:1) and docosahexaenoic acid (c22:0) were the most abundant fatty acids...

the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of five dosage of vitamin c (0, 50, 250, 750 and 1500 mg vitamin c per kg diet) on fatty acid composition of caspian brown trout fry (salmo trutta caspius). fish (initial average body weight of 0.1 ± 0.02 g) were fed by formulated diets for 6 weeks in triplicate. the findings of growth parameters and survival showed significant difference a...
