the fatty acids profile of fresh and dry salted flesh of hypophthalmichthys molitrix were identified and effects of the dry salting on them were investigated. in addition, the shelf life of dry salted of the fish was found under the environmental conditions (25-28°c). the profile of fatty acids in fresh and dry salted samples were identified and measured using a gc, equipped with a fid detector...

this study investigated the fatty acids profile, oxidative stability indices, and bioactive compounds of virgin and processed olive oils (leccino and frantoio cultivars). results showed that fatty acid profile of the studied oils contained mostly oleic acid followed by palmitic and linoleic acid. acid values of virgin frantoio and processed leccino were 0.78 and 0.18 mg koh/g oil, with peroxide...

The proximate composition, amino acids and fatty acids composition in the muscle of wild, inshore and offshore cage-cultured large yellow croaker, Pseudosciaena crocea (Richardson, 1846), were determined to identify nutritional differences. Wild fish groups showed highest content of moisture and crude protein, but the lowest lipid content. Offshore cage-cultured fish showed significantly higher...

BACKGROUND We have previously reported that rheumatoid arthritis patients, who adopted a modified Cretan Mediterranean diet, obtained a reduction in disease activity and an improvement in physical function and vitality. This shift in diet is likely to result in an altered intake of fatty acids. Therefore, the objective of the present study was to examine the dietary intake of fatty acids, as we...

The relative importance of the usual diet in serum phospholipids in subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) has been poorly studied. To compare the fatty acid profile in serum phospholipids from adult CF subjects with that of healthy subjects, and determine the role of the normal diet in this profile, we studied thirty-seven adult CF subjects with stable pulmonary disease and thirty-seven healthy co...

Long chain fatty acids (LCFA), primarily in the form of phospholipids, make up a significant component of the cell membrane structure in animals. These fatty acids can affect membrane fluidity and can serve as signaling molecules and as precursors for the synthesis of eicosanoids, just to name a few roles. In fact, the fatty acids have been called “gatekeepers” of cell regulation (Yaqoob, 2003)...

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), ...

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...

diet as a part of lifestyle plays a pivotal role in the development of metabolic syndrome and its consequences. fatty acid composition as a part of dietary intake affects blood fatty acid concentrations, insulin sensitivity and different metabolic pathways associated with the occurrence and consequences of the metabolic syndrome. the aim of this review is to evaluate the effects of dietary fatt...

The influence of culture temperature and the concentration of sodium nitrate (NaNO3) on the gas-chromatographic profile of the fatty acids of the filamentous cyanobacterium Spirulina platensis was evaluated. We found that temperature was the most important factor and that the greatest amount of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) was obtained at 30 degrees C, the fatty acid profile of the Spirulina cult...
