Candidate genes associated with fatty acid compositions in north American Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) [PDF]

BMC Genomics
Fatty acids are a requirement for normal development, however, since humans are unable to de novo produce essential fatty acids, they must be obtained from diet. Atlantic salmon is a major dietary source of nutritious and digestible fatty acids. Here, we

Physico-chemical and antioxidant properties of oils and by-products obtained by cold press-extraction of Tunisian Opuntia spp. seeds

Applied Food Research, 2021
Screw pressed prickly pear seed cakes from four Tunisian varieties were analyzed for their chemical and some functional and antioxidant properties, along with the physico-chemical characteristics of the extracted oils. This extraction yielded 40.14 to 62.

Diversity in seed oil content and fatty acid composition in Acer species with potential as sources of nervonic acid

Plant Diversity, 2021
Nervonic acid (NA, cis-15-tetracosenoic acid) is a very long-chain monounsaturated fatty acid that has been shown to be a core component of nerve fibers and nerve cells. It can be used to treat and prevent many neurological diseases.
