Young pigs of 13 to 22 days of age, weaned at 7 days, were used to determine the digestibilities of corn oil, lard and tallow; the mean corrected digestibilities were 86, 81 and 56%, respectively. At 22 days of age, the animals were slaughtered and the fatty acid composition of samples from the contents of six different regions of the digestive system were examined by gas-liquid chromatography. The contents of the digestive systems of a conventional and a germfree pig which had been receiving the same diet were also examined. The low digestibility of stearic acid and the high digestibilty of oleic and linoleic acids appeared to be a result of microfloral activity rather than a direct result of the pig’s ability to absorb these fatty acids.

SUMMARYGas liquid chromatography was used to investigate the influence of several T, S and unclassified cytoplasms on the fatty acid composition of oil from A632 and CrS4HLA maize seeds. The fatty acid compositions of the A632 and CrS4HLA seeds differed markedly from each other with respect to oleic and linoleic acids but were stable within each seed line with respect to all sixteen of the cytoplasms tested.

SummaryAs determined by gas-liquid chromatography, the mean fatty acid composition (weight percentages of total fatty acids) of milk fat from sows fed a diet to meet U.S. N.R.C. nutrient requirements was: oleic, 35·3; palmitic, 30·3; linoleic, 13·0; palmitoleic, 9·9; stearic, 4·0; myristic, 3·3; linolenic, 2·5; unidentified 0·7 and 0·5, presumably n-odd chain and branched fatty acids; lauric, 0·3; and capric, 0·2. The corresponding fatty acid composition of colostrum fat was: oleic, 41·7; palmitic, 22·5; linoleic, 20·9; palmitoleic, 5·0; stearic, 5·7; myristic, 1·4; linolenic, 2·4; and unidentified acids, 0·3 and 0·1. Dietary fat increased fat levels in the milk and influenced fatty acid composition of the milk fat. Backfat resembled colostrum fat more than milk fat.

Influence of tank mixtures of commercially available, recommended herbicides on the "oil content" (actually, the total fatty acid content) and the fatty acid composition for the subsequent corn (Zea mays L.) crop was measured by gas-liquid chromatography. Changes in total fatty acids and in fatty acid composition were caused by atrazine + cyanazine, atrazine + alachlor, atrazine + prometryne, atrazine + linuron, and alachlor + cyanazine. DCPA + 2,4-D and alachlor + linuron did not cause any changes in the fatty acid composition.

Abstract The early period of postnatal ontogeny of sheep is characterized by a variety of metabolic processes that result in the formation and consolidation of a certain type of metabolism. A special role is played by lipids, which together with proteins and carbohydrates constitute the bulk of organic compounds, cells and the organism as a whole. The purpose of this research was to study the polymorphism of CAST and GH genes as well as its association with the fatty acid composition of blood plasma lipids in lambs. The content of fatty acids was determined by gas-liquid chromatography in the form of methyl esters. From the data obtained, it follows that in all studied ontogeny periods the peripheral blood of sheep with CASTNN and CASTMM genotypes had a higher concentration of fatty acids such as palmitic, stearic, linoleic, and arachidonic acids. The content is as follows: 27.58, 45.40, 3.16, 0.28% vs. 26.21, 45.31, 3.62, 0.18% at the age of 2 months; 25.07, 43.25, 6.05, 1.74% vs. 23.24, 38.76, 6.49, 1.32% at the age of 4 months; 20.64, 22.26, 14.17, 3.38% vs. 17.64, 19.91, 15.07, 2.46% at the age of 8 months (P ˂ 0.05), (P ˂ 0.01). Studies of blood lipid composition of GHBBand GHAA genotype carriers showed that palmitic, stearic, linoleic, and arachidonic acids were dominant: 27.95, 27.96, 19.04% vs. 26.08, 23.88, 17.56% at the age of 2 months, 46.87, 39.87, 22.37% vs. 3.24, 6.87, 15.56% at the age of 4 months; 0.45, 1.68, 3.81% vs. 0.29, 1.29, 3.19% at the age of 8 months (P ˂ 0.05), (P ˂ 0.01). Thus, this study emphasizes that there is a close relationship between the ratio of fatty acids in total blood lipids in lambs and the intensity of growth and development, ensuring and controlling the direction of biochemical processes in the growth and development of young sheep.

Продукты масложировой промышленности играют важную роль в формировании рациона питания человека. При этом особое внимание отводится растительным маслам ввиду их высокой физиологической ценности. На сегодняшний день достаточно остро стоит вопрос о способах их идентификации. В связи с тем, что стоимость растительного масла в значительной степени обуславливается выбором сырья, наиболее распространенным видом фальсификации является внесение недобросовестными производителями в готовую продукцию более дешевых видов масел. Приведен анализ современных способов идентификации растительных масел из различного сырья. До настоящего времени метод газожидкостной хроматографии являлся основным при выявлении примесей посторонних жиров в продукции по ее жирнокислотному составу. Также для выявления фальсификатов могут быть использованы такие инструментальные методы, как ЯМР-спектроскопия, ИК-спектроскопия, а также метод изотопной масс-спектрометрии, который является наиболее перспективным. Особый научный интерес представляет идентификация растительных масел по их географическому месту происхождения. Основываясь на анализе литературы, показано, что наибольшее распространение при установлении региональной принадлежности масел получили исследования, направленные на изучение изотопных характеристик углерода (13С/12С), кислорода (18O/16O) и водорода (2H/1H) элементов, входящих в состав продукта, а также его жирнокислотного состава. Описаны преимущества комплексного подхода исследований, включающего в себя создание массива данных, состоящего из значений различных показателей, и его глубокий анализ с использованием статистических методов анализа. Математическая модель может быть усилена данными элементного профиля масла, изотопных характеристик отдельно взятых жирных кислот или содержанием фенольных соединений. Products of the fat and oil industry play an important role in shaping human diet. At the same time, special attention is paid to vegetable oils in view of their high physiological value. Today, the question of how to identify them is quite acute. Due to the fact that the cost of vegetable oil is largely determined by the choice of raw materials, the most common falsification type is the introduction of cheaper oils types into finished products by unscrupulous manufacturers. The authors provide an analysis of modern methods for identifying vegetable oils from various raw materials. It has been shown that the gas-liquid chromatography method is the main one in identifying products by their fatty acid composition and makes it possible to establish the presence of foreign fats impurities. Also, methods of isotope mass spectrometry, NMR spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy and electrophysical methods of analysis can be used to detect counterfeits. Of particular scientific interest is the vegetable oils identification by their geographical place of origin, which is very important for some countries of the European Union. Based on the analysis of literature, it has been shown that the most widespread in the regional oils affiliation establishing are researches aimed at researching the isotopic characteristics of carbon (13C/12C), oxygen (18O/16O) and hydrogen (2H/1H) of the elements that make up the product, and also its fatty acid composition. The advantages of an integrated research approach are described, including the creation of a data array consisting of the values of various indicators and its in-depth analysis using statistical analysis methods. The mathematical model can be strengthened by data on the elemental profile of the oil, isotopic characteristics of individual fatty acids, or the content of phenolic compounds.

Anethum sowa L. (Dill) seeds were investigated to determine the fatty acid composition and proximate analyses. The seeds contain 9.36 % fatty oil. The saturated and unsaturated fatty acids contributed 6.22% and 93.78% respectively of the oil. The per cent composition of the extracted oil was identified by Gas Liquid Chromatography (GLC). Among the six fatty acids identified from this study oleic acid contributed the highest proportion (87.10%), where as, linolenic, palmitic, stearic, behenic and arachidic all together contributed the rest (12.90%). Proximate analyses showed that A. sowa. seeds are good source of dietary fibre. Overall Dill seeds oil can be considered as a good source of oleic acid. Key words: Anethum sowa, dill seed oil, fatty acid composition, oleic acid, linolenic acid, Gas liquid chromatography. Bangladesh J. Sci. Ind. Res. 42(4), 455-464, 2007

The sensitivity of Listeria monocytogenes Scott A and ATCC 19114 to antimicrobial compounds was altered when bacterial membrane lipid composition was modified by growth in the presence of added fatty acids. Analysis of cellular fatty acid composition by gas-liquid chromatography indicated that L. monocytogenes Scott A cells contained 0.97, 2.32, 0.81, and 0.72% (relative) of C14:0, C16:0, C18:0, and C18:l, respectively. In the presence of exogenously supplied C14:0, C16:0, C18:0, and C18:l, the percentages increased to 14.03, 30.92, 16.30, and 27.90%. Average MICs for L. monocytogenes Scott A and ATCC 19114 to sodium chloride, tertiary butylhydroquinone, methyl paraben, and propyl paraben were 10.0%, 81, 1406, and 544 μg/ml, respectively. Growing either strain in the presence of 50 μg/ml of either exogenously added C14:0 or C18:0 fatty acids increased their resistance to the four antimicrobial compounds. However, growth in the presence of C18:1 led to increased sensitivity to the antimicrobial agents. The results indicate that the susceptibility of L. monocytogenes to antimicrobial agents is related to the lipid composition of the cell membrane. Consequently, food preservation processes which alter fatty acid composition of L. monocytogenes could result in changes in antimicrobial susceptibility.

The fatty acid compositions of the lipids and the lipid peroxide concentrations and rates of lipid peroxidation were determined in suspensions of liver endoplasmic reticulum isolated from rats fed on synthetic diets in which the fatty acid composition had been varied but the remaining constituents (protein, carbohydrate, vitamins and minerals) kept constant. Stock diet and synthetic diets containing no fat, 10% corn oil, herring oil, coconut oil or lard were used. The fatty acid composition of the liver endoplasmic reticulum lipid was markedly dependent on the fatty acid composition of the dietary lipid. Feeding a herring-oil diet caused incorporation of 8.7% eicosapentaenoic acid (C20:5) and 17% docosahexaenoic acid (C22:6), but only 5.1% linoleic acid (C18:2) and 6.4% arachidonic acid (C20:4), feeding a corn-oil diet caused incorporation of 25.1% C18:2, 17.8% C20:4 and 2.5% C22:6 fatty acids, and feeding a lard diet caused incorporation of 10.3% C18:2, 13.5% C20:4 and 4.3% C22:6 fatty acids into the liver endoplasmic-reticulum lipids. Phenobarbitone injection (100mg/kg) decreased the incorporation of C20:4 and C22:6 fatty acids into the liver endoplasmic reticulum of rats fed on a lard, corn-oil or herring-oil diet. Microsomal lipid peroxide concentrations and rates of peroxidation in the presence of ascorbate depended on the nature and quantity of the polyunsaturated fatty acids in the diet. The lipid peroxide content was 1.82±0.30nmol of malonaldehyde/mg of protein and the rate of peroxidation was 0.60±0.08nmol of malonaldehyde/min per mg of protein after feeding a fat-free diet, and the values were increased to 20.80nmol of malonaldehyde/mg of protein and 3.73nmol of malonaldehyde/min per mg of protein after feeding a 10% herring-oil diet in which polyunsaturated fatty acids formed 24% of the total fatty acids. Addition of α-tocopherol to the diets (120mg/kg of diet) caused a very large decrease in the lipid peroxide concentration and rate of lipid peroxidation in the endoplasmic reticulum, but addition of the synthetic anti-oxidant 2,6-di-t-butyl-4-methylphenol to the diet (100mg/kg of diet) was ineffective. Treatment of the animals with phenobarbitone (1mg/ml of drinking water) caused a sharp fall in the rate of lipid peroxidation. It is concluded that the polyunsaturated fatty acid composition of the diet regulates the fatty acid composition of the liver endoplasmic reticulum, and this in turn is an important factor controlling the rate and extent of lipid peroxidation in vitro and possibly in vivo.

1. The effects of food intake and the fatty acid composition of the diet on the hepatic stearoyl-CoA desaturase activity of obese-hyperglycaemic (ob/ob) mice were investigated. 2. Obese mice fed on a commercial mouse diet, ad libitum, had 6.5-fold more activity per liver cell than had lean mice. 3. On a diet containing 14% corn oil the activity was 65% less in obese mice and 62% less in lean mice compared with animals fed on the commercial diet. 4. Feeding with 14% saturated fat in the diet doubled the activity in lean mice compared with those on the commercial diet, but had no effect on the activity in obese mice. 5. Obese mice fed on the corn-oil diet contained a higher proportion of linoleic acid in the liver lipids than did lean mice fed on the commercial diet, but the acyl-CoA desaturase activity was 125% higher than in the lean mice. 6. Limiting the food intake of obese mice by pair-feeding with lean mice decreased their acyl-CoA desaturase activity when the animals were fed on the saturated-fat diet, but the activity remained 75% higher than in lean mice, whereas in obese mice pair-fed on the corn-oil diet the activity was the same as in lean mice. 7. During starvation the acyl-CoA desaturase activity in livers from obese mice decreased more slowly and proportionately less than in livers from lean mice. 8. It is concluded that increased substrate supply as a result of hyperphagia and not low concentration of linoleic acid is the main factor causing high acyl-CoA desaturase activity in obese mice.
