The fatty acid composition of the diet has various effects on atherosclerosis risk factors. Dietary saturated fatty acids (SFA) and trans‐unsaturated fatty acids increase the low‐density lipoprotein (LDL)‐/high‐density lipoprotein (HDL)‐cholesterol ratio in serum, while these fats do not have a significant bearing on serum triglyceride levels. By contrast, dietary monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA), n‐6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), and α‐linolenic acid (C18:3n‐3) similarly reduce LDL cholesterol concentrations, while their influence on serum HDL cholesterol and triglycerides is not appreciable. Dietary long‐chain n‐3 PUFA slightly increase serum LDL cholesterol concentrations, but are nevertheless considered salubrious with regard to serum lipids due to the distinct triglyceride‐lowering effects. MUFA‐rich compared to n‐6 PUFA‐rich diets strongly reduce the in vitro oxidizability of LDL. The available studies on this subject also suggest that n‐3 PUFA in the small amounts usually present in the diet are not unduly harmful. These findings are consistent with reports from observational studies: the amount of SFA is positively and the amount of MUFA and n‐6 PUFA in the diet is inversely associated with the risk of cardiovascular disease in most epidemiological studies. The available studies have had an impact on current dietary guidelines, which unanimously recommend that most of the dietary fat should be in the form of MUFA, while the amount of SFA and trans fatty acids in the diet should be as low as possible.  相似文献

The effects of rainbow trout cold storage on the quality of offal left after fish processing to fillets with skin were determined. The intact farmed rainbow trout were kept at 2 °C in ice for 0, 4, 7, and 14 days of storage. The offal was, immediately after processing, frozen at ?20 °C and analysed after a month‐long frozen storage; fillets (non‐frozen) were analysed as well. Non‐protein nitrogen, volatile bases, trimethylamine, lipid oxidation (peroxide value, anisidine value, UV‐VIS spectra, and fluorescence) and fatty acid composition were determined. The offal consists in 15% of protein and in about 20% of chloroform/methanol‐extractable lipids, with n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 PUFA) accounting for 20.37 ± 1.25% of the fatty acids. The fish storage duration was found to exert a significant (p = 0.05) effect on the changes in lipids and nitrogen compounds. No losses of long‐chain n‐3 PUFA in the offal were detected during the 2 wk of storage in ice plus 1 month at ?20 °C. The rainbow trout offal is a valuable – rich and stable – source of n‐3 PUFA.  相似文献

Various plant seeds have received little attention in fatty acid research. Seeds from 30 species mainly of Boraginaceae and Primulaceae were analysed in order to identify potential new sources of the n‐3 PUFA α‐linolenic acid (ALA) and stearidonic acid (SDA) and of the n‐6 PUFA γ‐linolenic acid (GLA). The fatty acid distribution differed enormously between genera of the same family. Echium species (Boraginaceae) contained the highest amount of total n‐3 PUFA (47.1%), predominantly ALA (36.6%) and SDA (10.5%) combined with high GLA (10.2%). Further species of Boraginaceae rich in both SDA and GLA were Omphalodes linifolia (8.4, 17.2%, resp.), Cerinthe minor (7.5, 9.9%, resp.) and Buglossoides purpureocaerulea (6.1, 16.6%, resp.). Alkanna species belonging to Boraginaceae had comparable amounts of ALA (37.3%) and GLA (11.4%) like Echium but lower SDA contents (3.7%). Different genera of Primulaceae (Dodecatheon and Primula) had varying ALA (14.8, 28.8%, resp.) and GLA portions (4.1, 1.5%, resp.), but similar amounts of SDA (4.9, 4.5%, resp.). Cannabis sativa cultivars (Cannabaceae) were rich in linoleic acid (57.1%), but poor in SDA and GLA (0.8, 2.7%, resp.). In conclusion, several of the presented plant seeds contain considerable amounts of n‐3 PUFA and GLA, which could be relevant for nutritional purposes due to their biological function as precursors for eicosanoid synthesis. Practical applications: N‐3 PUFA are important for human health and nutrition. Unfortunately, due to the increasing world population, overfishing of the seas and generally low amounts of n‐3 PUFA in major oil crops, there is a demand for new sources of n‐3 PUFA. One approach involves searching for potential vegetable sources of n‐3 PUFA; especially those rich in ALA and SDA. The conversion of ALA to SDA in humans is dependent on the rate‐limiting Δ6‐desaturation. Plant‐derived SDA is therefore a promising precursor regarding the endogenous synthesis of n‐3 long‐chain PUFA in humans. The present study shows that, in addition to seed oil of Echium, other species of Boraginaceae (Cerinthe, Omphalodes, Lithospermum, Buglossoides) and Primulaceae (Dodecatheon, Primula), generally high in n‐3 PUFA (30–50%), contain considerable amounts of SDA (5–10%). Therefore, these seed oils could be important for nutrition.  相似文献

γ‐Stearidonic acid, 18:4n‐6, a potential product of β‐oxidation of arachidonic acid (20:4n‐6), was only recently positively identified in a living organism—a thermophilic cyanobacterium Tolypothrix sp., albeit at low levels, whilst some indirect evidence suggests its wider presence, e.g. in a unicellular marine alga. We have prepared 18:4n‐6 using an iodolactonisation chain‐shortening approach from 22:5n‐6 and obtained its 1H‐, 13C‐, COSY‐ and HSQC NMR spectra, with 18:5n‐3 spectra also recorded for a comparison. The GC and GC‐MS behaviour of its methyl ester was also studied. Like another Δ3 polyunsaturated acid, octadecapentaenoic (18:5n‐3), 18:4n‐6 rapidly yields 2‐trans isomer upon formation of dimethyloxazoline derivative. On a polar ionic liquid phase (SLB‐IL100, 200 °C) the methyl ester could be mistaken for 18:3n‐3, while on methylsilicone phase (BP1, 210 °C) it eluted ahead of 18:3n‐6 and 18:4n‐3, suggesting that when present it may be easily misidentified during GC analysis of fatty acids.  相似文献

The present study was undertaken to determine the profile of the (n‐9) and (n‐7) isomers for C18:1, C20:1 and C22:1 fatty acids in radish seeds as well as their isomers. Radish (Raphanus sativus L. cvs. ‘Antep, Beyaz, Cherry Belle and Iri K?rm?z?’) seeds were produced in 2003–2005 from different sowing dates (SD). The n‐7 isomers of C18:1, C20:1 and C22:1 ranged from 0.7 to 1.3, 0.1 to 0.3 and 0.4 to 1.1 %, respectively. The average values of C18:1(n‐7) was highest (1 %) amongst the three acids. The ratios of (n‐7)/(n‐9) ranged from 4.5 % (‘Cherry Belle’, SD‐I) to 8.3 % (‘Antep’, SD‐III), 0.8 % (‘Iri K?rm?z?’, SD‐II) to 3 % (‘Iri K?rm?z?’, SD‐I) and 1.6 % (‘Cherry Belle’, SD‐I) to 3.7 % (‘Iri K?rm?z?’, SD‐I) for C18:1, C20:1 and C22:1. Erucic acid was the principal fatty acid with concentrations of nearly 34–39 % in ‘Antep’, 32–34 % in ‘Cherry Belle’, 30–33 % in ‘Beyaz’ and 21–22 % in ‘Ir? K?rm?z?’. The oleic acid content was higher in SD‐I and SD‐II than SD‐III in all cultivars. Correlation studies revealed that palmitoleic acid (C16:1) had a significant relationship between most of the fatty acids of the (n‐7)/(n‐9) family. The results indicated that palmitoleic acid is important in the synthesis of long‐chain fatty acids and that the data for the (n‐7)/(n‐9) ratios for C22:1 could be used as biochemical markers to determine the similarities or differences between radish cultivars.  相似文献

The influence of dietary Tetracarpidium conophorum (African Walnut) seed meal (TCSM) on fatty acids, productivity parameters, and physicochemical properties of breast and thigh muscles in broiler chickens are assessed. A total of 180, 28‐d‐old Arbor acre broiler chickens are randomly assigned to dietary treatments containing 0% (control), 2.5%, and 5% w/w TCSM, fed for 28 d, and euthanized. Dietary TCSM reduces (p < 0.05) feed intake, body weight gain (BWG), carcass weight, and abdominal fat. Diet does not affect feed efficiency and hematological parameters. The control birds have higher (p < 0.05) serum total cholesterol and triglycerides than do the supplemented birds. Diet has no effect on pH, water holding capacity, carbonyl and malondialdehyde contents, and organoleptic properties of breast and thigh muscles. The 5% TCSM has higher redness in breast muscle than do other treatments. Dietary TCSM improves (p < 0.05) the concentration of C18:3n‐3 (4.80–8.76% vs 1.56%), C20:5n‐3 (0.54–0.79% vs 0.39%), C22:5n‐3 (0.64–0.89% vs 0.18%), and C22:6n‐3 (0.75–0.97% vs 0.19%), and reduces (p <  0.05) the fat content (2.15–2.45% vs 3.15%) in breast and thigh muscles. Dietary TCSM enhances muscle n‐3 fatty acids without instigating oxidative deterioration, but reduces BWG in broiler chickens. Practical Application: Albeit that broiler meat is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), its omega 6 (n‐6)/omega 3 (n‐3) is >4. Elevated n‐6/n‐3 could have adverse effect on human physiology thereby promoting the pathogenesis of certain diseases. This heightens the need to enhance the n‐3 PUFA content of broiler meat. Dietary TCSM induced up to a fourfold increase in n‐3 PUFA content of the breast and thigh muscles in broiler chickens. Moreover, dietary TCSM induced up to a tenfold decrease in the n‐6/n‐3 of the breast and thigh muscles in broiler chickens. This finding assumes great significance because the health concerns regarding dietary fat are the foremost factors responsible for the bad image suffered by meat. These results provide insights on the potential of TCSM to improve the nutritional quality without compromising the oxidative shelf life, organoleptic traits, and physicochemical properties of broiler meat.  相似文献

Chickens can hepatically synthesize eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5 n‐3) and docosahexaenoic acid (22:6 n‐3) from α‐linolenic acid (ALA; 18:3 n‐3); however, the process is inefficient and competitively inhibited by dietary linoleic acid (LNA; 18:2 n‐6). In the present study, the influence of dietary high‐oleic acid (OLA; 18:1 n‐9) soybean oil (HOSO) on egg and tissue deposition of ALA and n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) synthesized from dietary ALA was investigated in laying hens fed a reduced‐LNA base diet supplemented with high‐ALA flaxseed oil (FLAX). We hypothesized that reducing the dietary level of LNA would promote greater hepatic conversion of ALA to very long‐chain (VLC; >20C) n‐3 PUFA, while supplemental dietary HOSO would simultaneously further enrich eggs with OLA without influencing egg n‐3 PUFA contents. Nine 51‐week‐old hens each were fed 0, 10, 20, or 40 g HOSO/kg diet for 12 weeks. Within each group, supplemental dietary FLAX was increased every 3 weeks from 0 to 10 to 20 to 40 g/kg diet. Compared to controls, dietary FLAX maximally enriched the total n‐3 and VLC n‐3 PUFA contents in egg yolk by 9.4‐fold and 2.2‐fold, respectively, while feeding hens 40 g HOSO/kg diet maximally attenuated the yolk deposition of ALA, VLC n‐3 PUFA, and total n‐3 PUFA by 37, 15, and 32%, respectively. These results suggest that dietary OLA is not neutral with regard to the overall process by which dietary ALA is absorbed, metabolized, and deposited into egg yolk, either intact or in the form of longer‐chain/more unsaturated n‐3 PUFA derivatives.  相似文献

There are two kinds of n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA). Alpha‐linolenic acid (ALA) is the parent n‐3 PUFA; it cannot be synthesized by the human body and as a result is an essential fatty acid. The two long chain n‐3 PUFA eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) can in principle be synthesized from ALA or obtained from the diet. While the cardioprotective effects of long chain n‐3 PUFA are well established the effects of ALA on the cardiovascular system are more controversial. The Lyon Diet Heart Study which it is claimed provides evidence for beneficial effects of ALA on the cardiovascular system is flawed. The argument that ALA conversion into EPA and DHA provides significant quantities of the two long chain n‐3 PUFA is unsustainable as rates of conversion are too low. To avoid confusion a distinction needs to be drawn between ALA and the long chain n‐3 PUFA. Health claims for foods rich in EPA and DHA cannot be extended to foods rich in ALA nor is ALA a substitute for EPA and DHA in vegetarian diets.  相似文献

Phosphatidylglycerol (PG) is a highly functional phospholipid (PL), which has many physiological functions. However, naturally occurring PG binding n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (n‐3 PUFA) is low in content, resulting in a scarcity of industrial bio‐resources of n‐3 PUFA enriched PG. The current study investigates the preparation of salmon roe PG (SRPG) from three types of salmon roe lipids and glycerol via phospholipase D (PLD)‐mediated transphosphatidylation. The yields of SRPG obtained from salmon roe total lipid (SRTL) and salmon roe PL (SRPL) are higher than those obtained from purified salmon roe phosphatidylcholine (SRPC) in aqueous system. Following a 24 h reaction with 0.75 U PLD, SRTL, and SRPL yield up to 96.4 mol% and 96.7 mol% SRPG, respectively. In addition, more fatty acids are released from synthesized SRPG via hydrolysis by pancreatic enzymes than from SRPC and soybean PC in in vitro digestion model. Fatty acids at the sn‐2 position of SRPG are completely liberated by 0.04 U of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) during a 6 h reaction, whereas fatty acids of SRPC are partially unhydrolyzed even after a 24 h reaction. Our results suggest that SRPG converted from salmon lipids by PLD is a functional PL with high bioavailability of n‐3 PUFAs. Practical Applications: Phosphatidylglycerol rich in n‐3 PUFAs is prepared from salmon roe lipids (SRPG) catalyzed by PLD. The SRPG yields reach 96.4 mol% and 96.7 mol% of phosphatidylcholine contained in SRTL and SRPL, respectively, in aqueous reaction system. Fatty acids rich in n‐3 PUFAs at sn‐2 position of prepared SRPG are rapidly liberated by PLA2 in an in vitro digestion model.  相似文献

There is growing scientific evidence that consumption of n‐3 very long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 VLC‐PUFA) helps in brain and eye development, and protects against a range of common degenerative diseases. This has provided the impetus to the scientists to develop new and renewable sources for these important fatty acids so that the food industry is able to produce and market products fortified with n‐3 VLC‐PUFA. The bioactive efficacy and stability of food products containing n‐3 VLC‐PUFA may be determined not only by the amount of n‐3 VLC‐PUFA present but also by the positional distribution of these acids within the triacylglycerol (TAG) molecules (regiopurity). Studies of the effects of positional distribution on the functionality of n‐3 VLC‐PUFA containing oils have been hampered by a general lack of pure TAG regioisomers for experimentation. This paper reviews methods that have been used for the synthesis of TAG regioisomers containing n‐3 VLC‐PUFA, with special reference to those in which one n‐3 VLC‐PUFA occurs in combination with two long‐chain saturated acids.  相似文献

Stearidonic acid (SA, 18:4n‐3) is a polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) that constitutes the first metabolite of α‐linolenic acid (ALA, 18:3n‐3) in the metabolic pathway leading to C20–22 PUFA, such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5n‐3), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n‐3), which recently have received much attention because of their various physiological functions in the human body. Recently, several studies indicated that dietary SA increased EPA more efficiently than ALA. Thus, vegetable oils containing SA may become a dietary source of n‐3 fatty acids that is more effective in increasing tissue n‐3 PUFA concentrations than the current ALA‐containing vegetable oils. Nevertheless, few SA sources occur in nature, although there are still a large number of species untested to date. SA has been detected in variable amounts in several species of algae, fungi and animals tissues, but the seeds of some plant families seem to be better sources of SA, especially Echium (Boraginaceae) species. This work reviews the nutritional significance, medical uses and natural occurrence of SA.  相似文献

Dietary saturated fat (SFA) intake has been associated with elevated blood lipid levels and increased risk for the development of chronic diseases. However, some animal studies have demonstrated that dietary SFA may not raise blood lipid levels when the diet is sufficient in omega‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3PUFA). Therefore, in a randomised cross‐over design, we investigated the postprandial effects of feeding meals rich in either SFA (butter) or vegetable oil rich in omega‐6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐6PUFA), in conjunction with n‐3PUFA, on blood lipid profiles [total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL‐C) and triacylglycerol (TAG)] and n‐3PUFA incorporation into plasma lipids over a 6‐h period. The incremental area under the curve for plasma cholesterol, LDL‐C, HDL‐C, TAG and n‐3PUFA levels over 6 h was similar in the n‐6PUFA compared to SFA group. The postprandial lipemic response to saturated fat is comparable to that of n‐6PUFA when consumed with n‐3PUFA; however, sex‐differences in response to dietary fat type are worthy of further attention.  相似文献

Marine fishes are rich in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), especially eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which are extremely important for human health. The objective of our work was to determine the content and composition of lipids and fatty acids in the different tissues of cobia from China and to evaluate their nutritional value. The results showed that cobia from China was rich in lipids; the neutral lipid content was above 82%; the content of cholesterol and phospholipid was low. Eighteen fatty acids were identified. Myristic (C14:0), palmitic (C16:0), and stearic acids (C18:0) were the main saturated acids; palmitoleic (C16:1n-7) and oleic acid (C18:1n-9) were the main monounsaturated fatty acids. EPA and DHA were the main PUFA; n-3 and n-6 PUFA were present as 12–18% and 2.6–3.2% of the total fatty acids, respectively. The n-6/n-3 ratio was in the range from 0.18 to 0.22, which was far lower than that (5:1) recommended by WHO/FAO. Therefore, cobia lipids from China have a high nutritional value.  相似文献

The fatty acid composition in the lipid phase of 64 commercially available baby food products, of two different batches each, was analyzed. They comprised vegetable products for babies of five, eight, and twelve months and fruit and cereal products of three different brands. The comparison of the composition of the saturated (C18:0, C16:0, C14:0, C12:0, C10:0), the unsaturated monoenoic (C18:1n9 and C16:1n7) and the polyenoic (C18:2n6 and C18:3n3) fatty acids was determined by gas chromatography. All analyzed baby food products provided well‐balanced amounts of saturated fatty acids on the one hand (saturated fatty acids (SFA) 31—37% of total fatty acids) and unsaturated fatty acids on the other hand (monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) 23—26% and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) 38—46% of total fatty acids, respectively). The P/S‐ratio in vegetable products of five months reached a value of 1.5, in all other analyzed products it was around 1. The n‐6:n‐3‐ratio was 10:1 in fruit and cereal products, followed by 11.6:1 in vegetable products of eight and twelve months and 13.5:1 in the group of vegetable products of five months. Since there is a lack of arachidonic acid and docosahexaenoic acid in baby food products, it might be of advantage to consider whether such products should be supplemented by these long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acids.  相似文献

We studied the copepod Limnocalanus macrurus for seasonal variation in the composition of fatty acids, wax esters and sterols in large boreal lakes, where it occurs as a glacial‐relict. Vast wax ester reserves of Limnocalanus were accumulated in a period of only two months, and comprised mono‐ and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and saturated fatty alcohols. In winter, the mobilization of wax esters was selective, and the proportion of long‐chain polyunsaturated wax esters declined first. PUFA accounted for >50 % of all fatty acids throughout the year reaching up to ca. 65 % during late summer and fall. Long‐chain PUFA 20:5n‐3 and 22:6n‐3 together comprised 17–40 % of all fatty acids. The rarely reported C24 and C26 very‐long‐chain PUFA (VLC‐PUFA) comprised 6.2 ± 3.4 % of all fatty acids in August and 2.1 ± 1.7 % in September. The VLC‐PUFA are presumably synthesized by Limnocalanus from shorter chain‐length precursors because they were not found in the potential food sources. We hypothesize that these VLC‐PUFA help Limnocalanus to maximize lipid reserves when food is abundant. Sterol content of Limnocalanus, consisting ca. 90 % of cholesterol, did not show great seasonal variation. As a lipid‐rich copepod with high abundance of PUFA, Limnocalanus is excellent quality food for fish. The VLC‐PUFA were also detected in planktivorous fish, suggesting that these compounds can be used as a trophic marker indicating feeding on Limnocalanus.  相似文献

To date, treatment of hypertriglyceridemia with long‐chain n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 PUFA) has been investigated solely in fasting and postprandial subjects. However, non‐fasting triacylglycerols are more strongly associated with risk of cardiovascular disease. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of long‐chain n‐3 PUFA on non‐fasting triacylglycerol levels and to compare the effects of n‐3 PUFA formulated as acylglycerol (AG‐PUFA) or ethyl esters (EE‐PUFA). The study was a double‐blinded randomized placebo‐controlled interventional trial, and included 120 subjects with non‐fasting plasma triacylglycerol levels of 1.7–5.65 mmol/L (150–500 mg/dL). The participants received approximately 3 g/day of AG‐PUFA, EE‐PUFA, or placebo for a period of eight weeks. The levels of non‐fasting plasma triacylglycerols decreased 28 % in the AG‐PUFA group and 22 % in the EE‐PUFA group (P < 0.001 vs. placebo), with no significant difference between the two groups. The triacylglycerol lowering effect was evident after four weeks, and was inversely correlated with the omega‐3 index (EPA + DHA content in erythrocyte membranes). The omega‐3 index increased 63.2 % in the AG‐PUFA group and 58.5 % in the EE‐PUFA group (P < 0.001). Overall, the heart rate in the AG‐PUFA group decreased by three beats per minute (P = 0.045). High‐density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol increased in the AG‐PUFA group (P < 0.001). Neither total nor non‐HDL cholesterol changed in any group. Lipoprotein‐associated phospholipase A2 (LpPLA2) decreased in the EE‐PUFA group (P = 0.001). No serious adverse events were observed. Supplementation with long‐chain n‐3 PUFA lowered non‐fasting triacylglycerol levels, suggestive of a reduction in cardiovascular risk. Regardless of the different effects on heart rate, HDL, and LpPLA2 that were observed, compared to placebo, AG‐PUFA, and EE‐PUFA are equally effective in reducing non‐fasting triacylglycerol levels.  相似文献

Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) of the n‐3 series. Fish oil is a classical source of n‐3 PUFA, where they occur in the form of triacylglycerols (TAG). However, new sources of n‐3 PUFA esterified in phospholipids (PL) are emerging. We prepared liposomes from a natural marine lipid extract and examined their behaviour under conditions mimicking that of the gastrointestinal tract. This physicochemical approach proved that liposomes could be used as an effective oral PUFA delivery system. In vivo studies in rats were performed to examine the metabolic fate of EPA (20:5 n‐3) and DHA (22:6 n‐3) delivered either in PL from liposomes or in TAG from oil. Liposome ingestion increased PUFA bioavailability in lymph compared with fish oil. The proportion of n‐3 PUFA esterified in the sn‐2 position of chylomicron TAG depended on the dietary lipid source. Complex time‐course profiles were observed for plasma lipids with liposome supplementation over a 2‐week period, suggesting time‐dependent regulations. Taken together, the type of PUFA, EPA or DHA, as well as its intramolecular distribution in chylomicron TAG seemed to influence the metabolic fate of the fatty acids and their physiological activities.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of replacing dietary fish oil (FO) with linseed oil (LO) on growth, fatty acid composition and regulation of lipid metabolism in Eurasian perch (Perca fluviatilis) juveniles. Fish (17.5 g initial body weight) were fed isoproteic and isoenergetic diets containing 116 g/kg of lipid for 10 weeks. Fish fed the LO diet displayed lower growth rates and lower levels of DHA in the liver and muscle than fish fed the FO diet, while mortality was not affected by dietary treatment. However, DHA content recorded in the liver and muscle of fish fed the LO diet remained relatively high, despite a weight gain of 134 % and a reduced dietary level of long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC‐PUFA), suggesting endogenous LC‐PUFA biosynthesis. This was supported by the higher amounts of pathway intermediates, including 18:4n‐3, 20:3n‐3, 20:4n‐3, 18:3n‐6 and 20:3n‐6, recorded in the liver of fish fed the LO diet in comparison with those fed the FO diet. However, fads2 and elovl5 gene expression and FADS2 enzyme activity were comparable between the two groups. Similarly, the expression of genes involved in eicosanoid synthesis was not modulated by dietary LO. Thus, the present study demonstrated that in fish fed LO for 10 weeks, growth was reduced but DHA levels in tissues were largely maintained compared to fish fed FO, suggesting a physiologically relevant rate of endogenous LC‐PUFA biosynthesis capacity.  相似文献

The health promoting effects of omega‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 PUFA) are mainly ascribed to the n‐3 long chain (LC)‐PUFA, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). However, their intake is mostly below the recommended daily intake. A possible way to raise their average intake is to enrich food products with n‐3 LC‐PUFA. Addition of autotrophic microalgae to the diet of the laying hens can increase the level of these fatty acids in the egg yolk. Moreover, depending on the microalgal species, other nutritionally interesting algal carotenoids can also be transferred to the egg yolk. As a consequence egg yolk colour changes may occur. A survey conducted among 511 people showed that they will buy n‐3 PUFA enriched products, such as enriched eggs, and are even prepared to pay more for these products. However, the change of the yolk colour must be taken into account, since consumer' acceptability decreases when a deeply red yolk colour is obtained.  相似文献

In order to establish Ciona intestinalis as a new bioresource for n‐3 fatty acids‐rich marine lipids, the animal was fractionated into tunic and inner body tissues prior to lipid extraction. The lipids obtained were further classified into neutral lipids (NL), glycolipids (GL) and phospholipids (PL) followed by qualitative and quantitative analysis using GC‐FID, GC–MS, 1H NMR, 2D NMR, MALDI‐TOF‐MS and LC–ESI–MS methods. It was found that the tunic and inner body tissues contained 3.42–4.08 % and 15.9–23.4 % of lipids respectively. PL was the dominant lipid class (42–60 %) irrespective of the anatomic fractions. From all lipid fractions and classes, the major fatty acids were 16:0, 18:1n‐9, C20:1n‐9, C20:5n‐3 (EPA) and C22:6n‐3 (DHA). The highest amounts of long chain n‐3 fatty acids, mainly EPA and DHA, were located in PL from both body fractions. Cholestanol and cholesterol were the dominant sterols together with noticeable amounts of stellasterol, 22 (Z)‐dehydrocholesterol and lathosterol. Several other identified and two yet unidentified sterols were observed for the first time from C. intestinalis. Different molecular species of phosphatidylcholine (34 species), sphingomyelin (2 species), phosphatidylethanolamine (2 species), phosphatidylserine (10 species), phosphatidylglycerol (9 species), ceramide (38 species) and lysophospholipid (5 species) were identified, representing the most systematic PL profiling knowledge so far for the animal. It could be concluded that C. intestinalis lipids should be a good alternative for fish oil with high contents of n‐3 fatty acids. The lipids would be more bioavailable due to the presence of the fatty acids being mainly in the form of PL.  相似文献
