Marine oils with iodine values in the range 83–108 from Newfoundland turbot or Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides), sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbria), and certain Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus), were examined for fatty acid composition by gas–liquid chromatography. The herring oils differed from the other oils in having high levels of C20and especially C22fatty acids (chiefly monounsaturated). The sablefish oil had a high level of C18fatty acids, the turbot oil a composition intermediate between the herring and sablefish oils. All of these oils contained moderate amounts of polyunsaturated fatty acids (7.3–14.4%). The low iodine values were primarily due to monounsaturated fatty acids and not to saturated fatty acids (17.1–21.0%)

Twelve commercial samples of oil from Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus L.) were examined for fatty acid composition by gas–liquid chromatography. Individual fatty acid components varied widely between these oils, but an assessment of the respective totals of saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated acids from these oils and from oils of other species has led to an empirical formula giving the total per cent polyunsaturated fatty acids in marine oils as: total polyunsaturated fatty acids = 10.7 + 0.337 (iodine value oil — 100)In the Atlantic herring oils studied the average proportions of the saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids were 20, 60, and 20%, respectively. In comparison with herring oil analyses reported from other areas the total saturated acids in the Atlantic herring oils are slightly lower, but there is general agreement that hexadecanoic acid averages about 60% of the total saturated fatty acids. Relationships which are fairly consistent among other acids and apparently not related to iodine value include the ratio of hexadecanoic acid to hexadecenoic acid plus octadecenoic acid, the ratio of C20 and C22 successor acids to C18 linoleic-type precursor acids, and the ratio of linolenic-type acids compared to immediate precursors of the same chain length. As iodine value increases the saturated acids increase slightly, and in the linolenic type acids the ratio of C20 to C18 fatty acids increases more noticeably than the ratio of C22 to C18. The ratio of C22 to C20 linolenic-type acids accordingly decreases with increasing iodine value. The ratio of total linolenic-type acids to total linoleic-type acids apparently increases with increasing iodine value. Comparisons are made with oil analyses of clupeids taken in other oceanic areas.

Abstract Exogenous lipids serving as stimulators to improve lycopene production in Blakeslea trispora have been widely reported. However, the selection basis of exogenous lipids and their effects on intracellular lipids are not very clear. In this study, five plant oils with different fatty acid compositions were selected to investigate their effects on lycopene production, fatty acid composition and the desaturation degree of intracellular lipids. Among the oils, soybean oil, with a fatty acid composition similar to that of mycelium, exhibited the best stimulating effect on lycopene formation (improvement of 82.1%). The plant oils enhanced the total content of intracellular lipids and the desaturation degree of reserve lipids due to the alteration of fatty acid composition, especially in neutral lipids. Lycopene production was increased with the improved desaturation degree of intracellular lipids, which may be attributed to the enhancement of storage capacity for lycopene in storage lipid, thus reducing the feedback regulation of free lycopene. In addition, the increase of the desaturation degree of reserve lipids through temperature-changing fermentation also enhanced lycopene production. The present study could serve as a basis for a better understanding of the relationship between the fatty acid composition of reserve lipids and lycopene production.

The in vitro antithrombotic properties of polar lipid constituents of malted grain (MG), pelleted hops (PH), brewer’s spent grain (BSG), spent hops (SH), wort, and bottled beer from the same production line were assessed in human platelets. The total lipids (TL) were extracted according to the Bligh and Dyer method and further separated into the total neutral lipids (TNL) and total polar lipids (TPL) extracts by counter-current distribution. The TL, TNL, and TPL extracts of all samples were assessed for their ability to inhibit platelet-activating factor (PAF) and thrombin-induced human platelet aggregation. The raw materials, by-products, wort, and beer lipid extracts all exhibited antithrombotic properties against PAF and thrombin. However, the beer TPL exhibited the lowest IC50 values against PAF-induced (7.8 ± 3.9 µg) and thrombin-induced (4.3 ± 3.0 µg) platelet aggregation indicating that these polar lipids were the most antithrombotic. The lipid extracts tended to be more bioactive against the thrombin pathway. The fatty acid content of all the TPL extracts were assessed using GC-MS. The fatty acid composition of the most bioactive TPL extracts, the wort and the beer, shared similar fatty acid profiles. Indeed, it was noted that fermentation seems to play a role in increasing the antithrombotic properties of polar lipids against PAF and thrombin by moderately altering the polar lipid fatty acid composition. Furthermore, the use of brewing by-products as a source of functional cardioprotective lipids warrants further investigation and valorisation.

The fatty acid composition of meat has important effects on its succulence and flavour. The neutral lipids of muscle, are mainly energy stores resembling adipose tissue and affect the succulence of meat. However, the phospholipids, which are structural components of muscle, are important in the development of the species specific cooked meat flavour and odour. We have investigated the effects of feeding diets differing mainly in their linoleic acid content on the fatty acid composition of the lipids of M. Longissimus dorsi (LD) of pigs.
