To evaluate the quality of oil used to prepare French fries, fifteen samples of three different categories were collected from Dhaka city. Using solvent extraction method, oils were extracted from the samples. Fatty acid composition, color, peroxide value (PV) and free fatty acids (FFA) of the extracted oils were analyzed. It was found that soybean oil and palm oil were used for frying purpose. Majority of the samples (60%) had peroxide value more than 10 meqO2/kg with highest value of 17.57(±1.39) meqO2/kg. Average color score was found 53.17(±12.73), yellow score was 17.16(±3.79) and red score was 7.2(±3.27). FFA content of the extracted oils were 0.33(±0.29) with the highest value 1.828(±0.029). Fatty acid composition revealed that palmitic acid and oleic acid were the dominant fatty acid with the highest concentration of 43.71±3.39% and 49.54 ±3.6314% respectively. Trans fatty acid was found in 80% of the extracted oils, most frequent trans fat was trans linoleic acid (C18:2) where as trans oleic acid (C18:1) was found in highest concentration 3.7020 ±0.3448. PV and trans fatty acids revealed that the quality of oil used in low cost shops were lower than middle and high cost shops.Bangladesh J. Sci. Ind. Res.53(2), 117-124, 2018

SummaryPlatelet aggregation and its relation to fatty acid composition of platelets, plasma and adipose tissue was determined in 196 randomly selected, free-living, 40-49-year-old men in two regions of Finland (east and southwest) with a nearly twofold difference in the IHD rate.There were no significant east-southwest differences in platelet aggregation induced with ADP, thrombin or epinephrine. ADP-induced platelet secondary aggregation showed significant negative associations with all C20-C22 ω3-fatty acids in platelets (r = -0.26 - -0.40) and with the platelet 20: 5ω3/20: 4ω 6 and ω3/ ω6 ratios, but significant positive correlations with the contents of 18:2 in adipose tissue (r = 0.20) and plasma triglycerides (TG) (r = 0.29). Epinephrine-induced aggregation correlated negatively with 20: 5ω 3 in plasma cholesteryl esters (CE) (r = -0.23) and TG (r = -0.29), and positively with the total percentage of saturated fatty acids in platelets (r = 0.33), but had no significant correlations with any of the ω6-fatty acids. Thrombin-induced aggregation correlated negatively with the ω3/6ω ratio in adipose tissue (r = -0.25) and the 20: 3ω6/20: 4ω 6 ratio in plasma CE (r = -0.27) and free fatty acids (FFA) (r = -0.23), and positively with adipose tissue 18:2 (r = 0.23) and 20:4ω6 (r = 0.22) in plasma phospholipids (PL).The percentages of prostanoid precursors in platelet lipids, i. e. 20: 3ω 6, 20: 4ω 6 and 20 :5ω 3, correlated best with the same fatty acids in plasma CE (r = 0.32 - 0.77) and PL (r = 0.28 - 0.74). Platelet 20: 5ω 3 had highly significant negative correlations with the percentage of 18:2 in adipose tissue and all plasma lipid fractions (r = -0.35 - -0.44).These results suggest that, among a free-living population, relatively small changes in the fatty acid composition of plasma and platelets may be reflected in significant differences in platelet aggregation, and that an increase in linoleate-rich vegetable fat in the diet may not affect platelet function favourably unless it is accompanied by an adequate supply of ω3 fatty acids.
