Autooxidation of docosahexaenoic acid: analysis of ten isomers of hydroxydocosahexaenoate.
Docosahexaenoic acid, an n-3 essential fatty acid, was recently shown to be enzymically converted by platelets, basophils, and liver microsomes into metabolites containing conjugated dienes with allylic hydroxyl groups. To help identify these metabolites,

Abstract The long‐chain n‐3 fatty acids (FA) eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) have human health benefits, and many experiments have investigated the ability of plant n‐3 sources to enrich n‐3 FA in broiler meat. A meta‐regression was conducted to evaluate the relationship between dietary 18‐carbon n‐3 FA content and the ...

The antibiofilm effects of docosahexaenoic acid
The ability of bacteria to form biofilms allows for recalcitrance against conventional antibiotic therapies (Potera, 1999). Therefore, this has contributed to the prevalence of biofilm acquired infections (BAI) clinically (Percival and Kite, 2018) which has resulted in increased morbidity and mortality amongst patients, with immunocompromised patients ...

Production of docosahexaenoic acid byThraustochytrium roseum
When three Thraustochytrium stains were cultivated in liquid media containing 2.5% starch and 0.2% yeast extract, initial pH 6.0, with shaking under fluorescent light for five days at 25 degrees C, similar biomass yields were observed (9.7-10.3 g L-1). Contents of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in biomass varied: 0.15, 3.55 and 6.40% w/w for T.

DEVELOPMENT OF A COOKIE WITH ADDED OMEGA 3 FATTY ACIDS SOURCE AS FUNCTIONAL FOOD
The present work aims at develop of a cookie with added omega 3. Three different commercial forms of omega 3 were evaluated as docosahexaenoic acid and ecoisapentaenoic acid (emulsion, powder and oil) at different omega 3 (ω3): omega 6 (ω6) ratios (1:5 ...

Immunomodulatory Effects of Omega‐3 Fatty Acids: Mechanistic Insights and Health Implications
Omega‐3 fatty acids, derived from dietary sources and supplements, serve as bioactive precursors (ALA, EPA, DHA) that integrate into immune cell membranes. These fatty acids enhance cell membrane fluidity, improve immune cell communication, and modulate key transcription factors like NF‐κB.

Enhanced production of docosahexaenoic acid in mammalian cells.
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), one of the important polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) with pharmaceutical and nutraceutical effects, may be obtained through diet or synthesized in vivo from dietary a-linolenic acid (ALA).
