Surface, Volumetric, and Wetting Properties of Oleic, Linoleic, and Linolenic Acids with Regards to Application of Canola Oil in Diesel Engines

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
Oleic, linoleic, and linolenic acids are the main components of canola oil and their physiochemical properties decide on the use of canola oil as fuel for diesel engines.

The predominance of polyunsaturated fatty acids in the butterfly Morpho peleides before and after metamorphosis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2006
We hypothesized that the polyunsaturated fatty acids of the butterfly were probably derived from the diet and that there might be a great loss of body fat during metamorphosis.

Leptin reverts pro-apoptotic and antiproliferative effects of α-linolenic acids in BCR-ABL positive leukemic cells: involvement of PI3K pathway. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
It is suspected that bone marrow (BM) microenvironmental factors may influence the evolution of chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML). In this study, we postulated that adipocytes and lipids could be involved in the progression of CML. To test this hypothesis,

Isomerization increases the postprandial oxidation of linoleic acid but not α-linolenic acid in men

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2001
Human lipid intake contains various amounts of trans fatty acids. Refined vegetable and frying oils, rich in linoleic acid and/or α-linolenic acid, are the main dietary sources of trans-18:2 and trans-18:3 fatty acids. The aim of the present study was to

α-Linolenic acid but not conjugated linolenic acid is hypocholesterolaemic in hamsters [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Nutrition, 2005
Conjugated linolenic acid (CLN) refers to a group of octadecatrienoic acid isomers that have three double bonds in conjugation. Both pomegranate and tung seed oils are rich in CLN but the major isomer in the former iscis9,trans11,cis13 while in the latter it iscis9,trans11,trans13.

Ractopamine concentration on the lipid profile of swine fat and meat

open access: yesCiência Rural, 2018
: This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of ractopamine concentrations on swine fat and meat lipid profiles. Ninety finishing barrows, initially weighing 71.9±4.4kg, were distributed in a randomized block design in three ractopamine ...

Alpha-Linolenic Acid [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2005
Although the fish-derived, long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (n-3 FA) may be considered “gifts from the sea” for cardiovascular health, the role of the land (or plant) -based n-3 FA α-linolenic acid (ALA) has been less clear. ALA is the 18-carbon, 3-double bond (C18:3n-3) precursor to eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; C20:5n-3) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA ...

α-Linolenic acid and cardiovascular disease [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2002
Oomen et al (1) reported on the lack of association between -linolenic acid (ALA, 18:3n 3) consumption and the incidence of coronary artery disease in a 10-y follow-up. We believe that 2 major limitations of this study might have affected its outcome and led to the wrong conclusions.

Environmental Stability of Elevated α-Linolenic Acid Derived from a Wild Soybean in Three Asian Countries

open access: yesAgriculture, 2020
: Soybean has been consumed in Asia traditionally as a staple food. Soybean can be a source of essential fatty acids—linoleic (18:2, ω-6) and α-linolenic acid (18:3, ω-3)—for humans.

Gamma-linolenic acid, Dihommo-gamma linolenic, Eicosanoids and Inflammatory Processes [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Pharmacology, 2016
Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA, 18:3n-6) is an omega-6 (n-6), 18 carbon (18C-) polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) found in human milk and several botanical seed oils and is typically consumed as part of a dietary supplement. While there have been numerous in vitro and in vivo animal models which illustrate that GLA-supplemented diets attenuate inflammatory ...
