Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConversion of Mutton Fat to Cocoa Butter Equivalent by Increasing the Unsaturated Fatty Acids at the Sn-2 Position of Triacylglycerol Through Fermentation by Yarrowia LipolyticaDan Xiong, Huaiyuan Zhang, Yifang Xie et al.Mutton fat has a similar fatty acid profile with Cocoa Butter (CB), except that its degree of unsaturation of Triacylglycerol (TAG) at the Sn-2 position is considerably lower than CB and maybe increased by Sn-2 specific lipase to produce Cocoa Butter Equivalent (CBE), a healthy functional lipid. However, there is no commercially available Sn-2 specific lipase that can be used … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Mar 2015 · 8,703 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMOLECULAR SWITCH THAT CONTROLS THE FLUX OF LINOLEIC ACID INTO N-6 OR N-3 POLYUNSATURATED FATTY ACIDS IN MICROORGANISMSMingxuan Wang, Jianxin Chen, Huaiyuan Zhang, Yuanda SongPolyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFA) of the n-6 and n-3 series play important roles in nutrition. Microorganisms are important sources of n-6 and n-3 fatty acids; however, most produce either n-6 or n-3 fatty acids as the major PUFAs and very few produce both. This differential production suggests that PUFAs metabolic pathway is strictly controlled in microorganisms. The major pathway of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 2 Jul 2014 · 7,138 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPROVED PREDICTION FOR MEDIUM OPTIMIZATION USING FACTORIAL SCREENING FOR DOCOSAHEXAENOIC ACID PRODUCTION BY SCHIZOCHYTRIUM SP. SW1Vidyah Manikan, Mohd Sahaid Kalil, Mohd Hafez Mohd Isa, Aidil Abdul HamidDocosa Hexaenoic Acid (DHA) is an essential fatty acid that plays major role in human health. It is typically extracted from fatty fish and this puts pressure on global fish stock. DHA obtained from fish is also prone to contamination. Schizochytrium is a potential alternative source, having the ability of accumulating considerable amounts of DHA. Modification of medium components and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 15 Jan 2014 · 7,845 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Recovery of Used Palm Cooking Oil Using Bagasse as AdsorbentRizki Wannahari, Mariam Firdhaus Mad NordinProblem statement: The use and reduce cooking oil is a common phenomena in our society. While some of this cooking oil is further refine most of it however and not subject to any filtration in the refining process medium such as carbon active, silica are commonly use. Approach: The used of bagasse as adsorbent is not common. This is odd … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 2 Mar 2012 · 10,323 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Prickly Poppy Methyl Ester Blends on Ci Engine Performance and Emission CharacteristicsP. Lawrence, P. Koshy Mathews, B. DeepanrajProblem statement: The aim of this research was to investigate the effect of using Prickly poppy methyl ester as a fuel blend on Diesel engine (CI engine) performance and exhaust emission. Approach: Short-term engine performance tests were conducted to evaluate and compare the use of various diesel fuel supplements at blend rations of 60/40, 70/30, 80/20, 90/10, in a standard, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 May 2011 · 7,142 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Supplemental Fat to Low Metabolizable Energy Diets on Cholesterol and Triglyceride Contents of Broiler MeatMansour Rezaei, Atena MonfarediProblem statement: Modern diets high in Saturated Fatty Acids (SFA) and low in Monounsaturated (MUFA) and Polyunsaturated (PUFA) fatty acids are mostly blamed for the increased incidence of cardiovascular diseases. Since dietary fatty acids are absorbed by monogastric animals and deposited in their tissues without significant modification, considerable potential exists for the manipulation of the fatty acid profile of poultry … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,022 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeasonal Variations of n-6: n-3 Ratios and Fatty Acid Compositions in Foot and Tissue of Chiton lamyi in a High Primary Productivity AreaNooshin Sajjadi, Peyman Eghtesadi-Araghi, Shahla Jamili et al.Problem statement: Fatty acid content and composition in mollusks is a function of their feeding diversity. Chabahar bay located in the northern part of Oman sea in Indian ocean provides high rates of primary productivity and a diverse food source for mollusks in this area. Identification of fatty acid compositions of Chiton lamyi and study their seasonal changes in the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,198 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDietary Inclusion of Sunflower Seed Alters Blood Plasma and Endometrium Lipid Profile in Beef CowsMariângela Bueno Cordeiro Maldonado, Ricardo de Oliveira Rodrigues, Dante Pazzanese Duarte Lanna et al.Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFA)-enriched diets are recognized as a significant approach for improving the reproductive efficiency of cattle. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of sunflower seed, a PUFA-rich feed source, supplementation on plasma and endometrium lipid profiles in beef cattle. It was hypothesized that feeding of sunflower seed has an additional effect on PUFA that … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 25 Jul 2023 · 5,551 accessesView PDFCite
