Simplified cholesterol backbone with images of a random spectral trace, a palm leaf (Rainer Sturm/pixelio.de), fluorescently stained lipid droplets (red) and associated proteins (green) in a T3T-L1 adipocyte (Johanna Spandl, University of Bonn, Germany), and fish (Vera/pixelio.de).

Nanoflaxseed oil was papered and orally administered to broilers at rearing period. A significant change in growth performance (higher body weight and lower feed conversion ratio), hepatic gene expression (higher transcript level of lipoprotein lipase: acyl-CoA oxidase 1 and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1), and fatty acid content of thigh and breast muscles (higher long-chain n − 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids) was noted in the current experiment.

Graphical Abstract: The potential application of mutton tallows in foods was investigated mainly in terms of solid fat content (SFC), polymorphism, and crystal form, with the expectation of developing other animal-based shortenings besides lard and tallow to meet the different dietary needs of consumers. The results showed that sheep tail tallow (STT) met the SFC range of general-purpose shortenings at different temperatures and exhibited β′ crystalline form, with the crystal morphology presenting a fine snowflake-like shape with a more compact network structure. Therefore, STT was suitable for the production of mutton tallow-based shortening.

Extraction, Characterization and radical scavenging properties of olive extracellular vesicles.

Newborn horse ingests skin derived branched chain fatty acids (BCFA) which persist through the gut. The branch configuration is unambiguously identified by EI-MS/MS.

In this study, the optimization of the wall material composed of nettle seed gum, ovalbumin, and chitosan was carried out by applying Box-Behnken design-based Response Surface Methodology. The combination of nettle seed gum, ovalbumin, and chitosan as a coating material to encapsulate WGO may be suitable for the production of functional foods and nutraceutical uses.

Chronic cold–induced brown adipose tissue activation caused mitochondrial biogenesis and thermogenesis, lipid metabolism, and remodeling, resulting in anti-obesity effects, which were more pronounced in obese mice.

Extracted compounds from Chenopodium quinoa husk with different chemical profiles and biological activities were obtained by varying the ethanol concentration in the pressurized fluid or Soxhlet extraction process. These extracts showed antioxidant, antibacterial, and antifungal activities without hepatotoxicity. Thus, quinoa husk can be properly valued for its phytochemicals, specifically fatty acids, for food and pharmaceutical applications.
