Fatty Acid Compositions

Interest in medicinal plants and fruits has increased in recent years due to people beginning to consume natural foods. This study aims to investigate the total phenolic flavonoid content, antioxidant activity, condensed tannin content, oil content, and fatty acid compositions of five local breeds of Berberis spp. from Bayburt, Turkey, and their antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. The fatty acid composition of samples was performed with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and the total fatty acid content of samples was between 6.12% and 8.60%. The main fatty acids in Berberis spp. samples were α-linolenic acid (32.85–37.88%) and linoleic acid (30.98–34.28%) followed by oleic acid (12.85–19.56%). Two antioxidant assays produced similar results, demonstrating that extracts of wild B. vulgaris L. had the highest ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) (621.02 μmol FeSO4.7H2O/g) and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH) (0.10 SC50 mg/mL) values. According to principal component analysis (PCA), four components were determined. In addition, two main groups were determined according to hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA), and wild and culture of B. vulgaris L. were in different subgroups. This is the first original report about the fatty acid composition and oil content of Berberis spp. grown in Bayburt, Turkey. The obtained results indicate that B. integerrima Bunge and B. vulgaris, which have especially remarkable fatty acid content, antioxidant, and antimicrobial activity, could be potential sources for these properties in different areas of use.

Salinity is a known factor in shaping population dynamics and community structure through direct and indirect effects on aquatic ecosystems. Salinity changes further influence food webs through competition and predation. The responses of Moina macrocopa (Cladocera) collected from Setiu Wetland lagoon (Terengganu) was evaluated through manipulative laboratory experiments to understand the ability of M. macrocopa to tolerate high salinity stress. Specifically, the fatty acid composition, growth, survival, and reproduction of this cladocerans species was examined. Sodium chloride (NaCl) as used in the treatments water with the concentration 0, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 15 salinity. Fatty acid levels were determined using Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrophotometry (GC-MS). The results indicated that optimal conditions produced the highest fatty acid content, especially the polyunsaturated fatty acid content, such as EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), ALA (alpha-linoleic acid), ARA (arachidonic acid), and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). Furthermore, M. macrocopa survival was best at salinity 0, with a percentage of 98%, whereas the opposite occurred at salinity 15, with approximately 20% of viable animals surviving. Besides, M. macrocopa also showed the highest reproduction rate at salinity 0 (e.g., average initial age of reproduction, 4.33 ± 0.58 days) compared with other salinities level. Interestingly, the difference in growth at different salinities was not evident, an unusual finding when considering adverse effects such as osmoregulation pressure on the organism. Based on the results, we conclude that M. macrocopa can only tolerate salinity below salinity 8 and cannot withstand stressful environmental conditions associated with salinities above 8.

Study Objective

Abstract The study objective was to assess the contribution of fat source and vitamin E (VE) supplementation on tissue tocopherol concentration, antioxidant status, and fatty acid composition in the backfat of pigs at heavy slaughter weight (149.38 ±1.56 kg). A total of 64 individually-fed pigs (32 barrows, 32 gilts; 28.41 ±0.83 kg) were randomly assigned to 8 dietary treatments in a 4 × 2 factorial arrangement. Fat treatments included corn-starch (CS), tallow (TW), corn oil (CO) and coconut oil (CN). VE supplementation levels were 11 and 200 IU/kg. Loin muscle, backfat, and liver samples were collected at slaughter. Data analysis were performed by ANOVA using GLM in SAS. No interactions between dietary fat source and VE supplementation were observed. Increasing dietary VE level from 11 to 200 IU/kg increased (P < 0.001) the tocopherol concentration in both liver (4.73 vs. 21.06 ppm wet liver) and loin muscle (1.25 vs. 2.67 ppm wet muscle). Pigs from the CO group had higher liver SOD activity (P < 0.05) than the other treatments (CS 22.51, TW 22.67, CO 24.40, and CN 20.92 U/mg protein). Pigs from the CN group had the highest (P < 0.05) total saturated fatty acid content (CS 44.33, TW 40.33, CO 36.29, and CN 51.70%), but the lowest (P < 0.05) total polyunsaturated fatty acid content (CS 9.26, TW 9.80, CO 25.41, and CN 8.75%) and iodine value (CS 56.61, TW 60.66, CO 77.83, and CN 49.90) in the backfat. Pigs from the TW group had the highest (P < 0.05) total monounsaturated fatty acid content (CS 46.40, TW 49.87, CO 38.30, and CN 39.56%) in the backfat. Under conditions of this study, a higher level of VE supplementation increased liver and muscle tocopherol concentrations whereas dietary fat sources altered liver antioxidant activity and fatty acid composition in the backfat.

Two hundred gilts and 200 barrows, housed within sex in pens of 25, were randomly allotted to two replications of four dietary treatments to determine the effects of incorporating 30, 20, 10 or 0% extruded soybeans (ESB), displacing a commercial protein supplement, in barley-based grower and finisher diets for pigs. Growth, feed intake and carcass quality of the pigs, and meat quality and fatty acid composition of the pork from a random subset of the pigs on test were determined. No sex × diet interactions were observed. ESB inclusion rate had no effect on growth rate; however, per-pen feed consumption decreased numerically with increasing ESB resulting in an improvement in feed efficiency. The 30% ESB inclusion rate increased carcass fat content (P < 0.05) compared with the control, whereas lean content was unaffected. Meat colour and marbling score were similar across all treatments whereas fat and lean firmness was reduced by the 30% ESB inclusion rate (P < 0.05) compared with all other treatments. Increasing ESB in the diet altered the fatty acid content of the pork by decreasing the amount of short-chain saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids and increasing the amount of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). The results of this study indicate that ESB can be used as the sole source of supplemental protein in barley-based diets for pigs with no detrimental effects on performance and minimal negative effects on carcass and meat quality. Alteration of fatty acid content of pork from feeding ESB has both positive and negative implications for consumer acceptance by increasing PUFA content while concomitantly increasing the risk of premature oxidation.

AbstractThe effect of double-muscling (DM) genotype (double-muscling, mh/mh; heterozygous, mh/+; normal, +/+) of Belgian Blue (BB) young bulls on the intramuscular fatty acid composition, in particular conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) was examined in five different muscles. The relative fatty acid composition showed only minor differences between muscles within genotypes. However, the DM genotype had a large effect on both the intramuscular total fatty acid content and on the relative fatty acid composition. Across muscles, the mh/mh animals had a lower total fatty acid content compared with the +/+animals (907 v: 2656 mg/100 g muscle;P< 0·01) and a higher PUFA proportion in total fatty acids (27·5 v 11·3 g/100 g total fatty acids;P< 0001), resulting in a higher PUFA/saturated fatty acid ratio (0·55 v 0·18;P< 0·01) and a lower n-6/n-3 ratio (5·34 v. 6·17;P< 0·01). The heterozygous genotype was intermediate between the two homozygous genotypes. The relative CLA content was similar in the mh/mh and +/+ genotypes and approximated 0·4 to 0·5 g/100 g total fatty acids. From the data it is further suggested that differences in the metabolism of the n-3 and n-6 fatty acids could exist between DM genotypes.
