Trans unsaturated fatty acids : a study of methodology and levels in New Zealand food fats including milkfat : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]
Trans fatty acids (TFAs) occur naturally in small amounts in foods such as milk, butter and tallow as a result of biohydrogenation by ruminant gut microflora. They are formed in much larger quantities during chemical hydrogenation of fats and oils.

The transfer of conjugated linoleic acid and vaccenic acid from milk to meat in goats
Biomedical studies with animal models have demonstrated that conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) have many positive health benefits. The major sources of CLA in human diets are meat and milk products from ruminants. The content of CLA in ruminant fat depends

Areca nut extract (ANE), commonly consumed in some cultures, can damage gut cells by triggering inflammation and cell death through a pathway called cGAS‐STING. This leads to the release of harmful inflammatory substances and weakens the gut barrier. Our study shows that resveratrol, a natural compound found in foods like grapes, can block this harmful

The ruminal ratio of trans-10/trans-11 fatty acids obtained in vitro reflects in vivo values and strongly depends on the diet of the donor cow [PDF]
Composition of fatty acids (FA) of ruminant products has a potential impact on human health. Among them, trans FA, which are intermediates of the ruminal biohydrogenation of dietary unsaturated FA, deserve interest, in particular trans-10 and trans-11 ...

ABSTRACT The stratum corneum, as the outermost layer of the skin, functions as a critical barrier that maintains cutaneous hydration and systemic homeostasis. Among its structural lipids, ceramides constitute the most abundant and diverse component. These molecules are essential for the formation of lamellar structures that secure barrier integrity ...

Live yeast as a possible modulator of polyunsaturated fatty acid biohydrogenation in the rumen [PDF]
In dairy cows, several studies focused on the effects of sodium bicarbonate and fibre on ruminal linoleic acid (c9c12-C18:2) biohydrogenation (BH) whereas literature is scarce about the effect of live yeast, used as a feed additive. The objective of this

We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...

Differentiation between organic and conventionally produced milk in pasture based farming systems : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Animal Science at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Consumer perception of organic cow’s milk is associated with the assumption that organic milk differs from conventionally produced milk. The value associated with this difference, justifies the premium retail price.
