Gas chromatography and IDF Standard method (1999) were used to analyze the fatty acid composition of milk fat of mares originating from the following breeds: 10 of Wielkopolska breed, 10 Konik Polski Horses, and 9 Polish Cold-blooded Horses. Eighty-seven mare’s milk samples were collected in the years 2000–2002. Unsaturated fatty acids were shown to prevail in the milk fat of mares of Wielkopolska breed (61.32%) and of Konik Polski mares (52.58%) whereas saturated acids prevailed in the milk fat of Cold Blooded mares (54.95%). The study revealed that the fatty acid composition of the investigated groups of mares was breed-specific. Of course, the impact of other uncontrolled factors such as nutrition is not excluded, either.

The study was conducted on aggregate milk samples, which were taken every month during the milking period from Tzigay sheep and their F2 cross-breeds of Chios, raised in the conditions of the Central Balkan Mountain. The fat extraction of milk samples was done by the Rose-Gottlieb method. Fatty acid composition was determined on a gas chromatograph with flame ionization detector and capillary column. The aim of the study was to follow the changes in the composition of fatty acids in the milk fat of milk of Tzigay sheep and their F2 cross-breeds. The saturated fatty acids in milk of the two groups had high values during both consecutive years, as they varied from 67.05% in milk of Tzigay sheep in the second lactation up to 70.87% at their F2 cross-breeds. The content of myristic acid was correspondingly 8.22-8.88% at Tzigay sheep and 8.45-8.74% at their F2 cross-breeds. The total amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids in the examined milk for the two types of sheep was comparatively low with near concentrations (4.39-5.20%) in the period of the two years. The milk of the two groups had high values of the correlation SFA/PUSFA (15.71 and 13.17) and low values of PUSFA/SFA (0.06-0.08). Mon?unsaturated fatty acids, represented mainly by the oleic acid (C18:1) varied during both periods from 21.92% to 25.32% and appeared as a substratum in the synthesis of CLA. The short-chain fatty acids (C4:0-C11:0) had higher values in Tzigay sheep in comparison with F2 cross-breeds of Chios. The long-chain fatty acids (C17iso-C25:0) maintained close concentration in the milk of Tzigay breed, while their content in the milk of F2 cross-breeds was increased.

Wild Paeonia ludlowii is considered as a traditional ornamental plant, but its flowers and seed oils are edible with important economic values, and the variation of nutrients, fatty acid composition in wild populations is scarcely known. Flowers and seeds of P. ludlowii were collected from two wild populations for evaluating the nutrients in flowers, composition of fatty acids in seed oils and the antioxidant activity. The flowers contained high composition of proteins, carbohydrates, amino acids, total flavonoids, phenolic compounds and essential minerals. Seed oil yield reached up to 21.95% using supercritical CO2 fluid extraction, and it contained 14 fatty acids (up to 93.35 g/100g seed oil), especially the unsaturated fatty acids (oleic acid, linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid) was up to 88.69% with low ω6/ω3 ratios of 0.58. The antioxidant capacity can be arranged in the order of trolox > flower extracts > seed oil according to the DPPH and ABTS free radical assay. Contents of nutrient in flowers and fatty acids in seed oils were significantly different between two wild populations due to the impact of different growing environments. These results indicate that flowers and seed oils of P. ludlowii are potential food resources in human diets.

SummaryThe lipid content of short rotation ryegrass at two stages of growth was followed at weekly intervals for several months in two spring-early summer seasons. Short succulent ryegrass consisting entirely of leaf tissue contained more lipid (mean, 8·1% of the dry weight) than mature ryegrass which contained appreciable stalk (mean, 5·1% of the dry weight). The lipid from the new growth contained fatty acids with appreciably higher proportions of linolenic acid, which was balanced mainly by lower proportions of linoleic and palmitic acids.When monozygotic twin milking cows were grazed on the short rotation ryegrass grown to two stages of maturity, it was found that the fatty acid composition of the milk fat from the two groups was different. The milk fat of cows grazed on the new growth contained higher proportions of oleic acid and other C18acids, whilst the proportions of myristic and palmitic acids were lower. The total proportions of the short-chain fatty acids were not greatly different, although in the group on new growth butyric acid was present in higher proportions and hexanoic and octanoic acids in lower proportions. The higher unsaturation of the fatty acids in the milk fat of this group of cows may be related to the higher levels of unsaturated fatty acids in the young ryegrass diet and to the extent to which these unsaturated fatty acids are hydrogenated in the rumen.

Introduction. Sowing rye (Secale cereale L.) and common barley (Hordéum vulgáre L.) are annual herbaceous plants of the Poaceae family, they are widely cultivated in many countries around the world as cereals and fodder crops. Sufficient raw material base of sowing rye and barley makes them promising sources for new drugs. Materials and methods. The fatty acid composition in lipophilic fractions of seeds, stems and leaves of sowing (Khamarka variety) and common barley (Shedevr variety) was studied by gas chromatography. Results. As a result of the study, the quantitative content of 14 fatty acids in the stems and leaves of barley, 13 – in the leaves of rye and 12 – in the stems of rye and in both types of studied seeds was identified and established. In all types of the studied raw materials, unsaturated fatty acids were quantitatively predominant, the content of which prevailed in seeds of rye – 82.89 % and barley – 76.35 %. In stems of common barley their content was 64.04 %, leaves of common barley – 66.31 % of the amount. In stems and leaves of rye, the predominance of unsaturated fatty acids over saturated ones was insignificant: 49.00 % vs. 47.05 % and 53.70 % vs. 43.03 %, respectively. Among the unsaturated fatty acids, linoleic and linolenic acids dominated. Palmitic acid predominated among the saturated raw materials in all types of studied raw materials Conclusions. Quantitative content of fatty acids in seeds, stems and leaves of sowing rye (Khamarka variety) and common barley (Shedevr variety) was identified and established by gas chromatography. The results of the research indicate a rich fatty acid composition of the studied raw materials and can be used to create drugs based on them

The nutritional image of bovine milk fat has suffered for years because of the association of saturated fatty acids and coronary heart disease. Thus the alteration of fatty acid composition has been a long-term strategy. Forages, even though containing a relatively low level of lipids, are the cheapest and often the major source of beneficial unsaturated fatty acids in ruminant diets. Recent progress in the research of factors affecting fatty acid content and composition in fresh and preserved forages and the associations between feeding such forages and milk fat profile are reviewed. Milk from cows grazed or fed fresh forage, especially from species-rich grasslands or forage legumes, has a considerably higher ratio of unsaturated to saturated fatty acids and a higher content of nutritionally beneficial trans-fatty acids (e.g. CLA, vaccenic acid) than milk from cows fed silage or hay. Grass and legume silages seem to affect the fatty acid profile more propitiously than maize silage.

Цель исследований определение влияния антиоксидантных препаратов Е-селен и Бутофан на продуктивность новотельных коров, состав молока, дисперсность молочного жира и жирнокислотный состав сливочного масла. Исследования были выполнены на 12 головах новотельных коров-аналогов черно-пестрой породы в возрасте трех лет, сформированных в три группы контрольную и две опытные по 4 головы в каждой в условиях ООО Заря Рязанского района Рязанской области. Дисперсность молочного жира определяли по количеству и диаметру молочных жировых шариков. Из молока готовили сладко-сливочное масло традиционным способом, в соответствии с действующим ГОСТом. Анализ масла на жирнокислотный состав проводили в ООО Московская независимая лаборатория качества сырья и пищевых продуктов , с использованием аппаратно-программного комплекса для медицинских исследований на базе хроматографа Хроматэк-Кристалл 5000 , с помощью программы Ехсеl . Определено влияние вышеуказанных препаратов на уровень продуктивности коров, состав молока, дисперсность молочного жира, жирнокислотный состав сливочного масла. При применении препаратов, обладающих антиоксидантной активностью, происходит торможение процессов перекисного окисления липидов в организме коров на разных стадиях лактации и свободные радикалы не накапливаются в организме. Наиболее выраженной активностью обладал препарат Бутофан , при его использовании изменялся дисперсный состав молочного жира в молоке в сторону увеличения количества жировых шариков с преобладанием крупной фракции. Это оказало положительное влияние на изменение состава жирных кислот в сливочном масле, на увеличение фракции ненасыщенных жирных кислот и улучшение качественных показателей сливочного масла.The purpose of the research is to determine the effect of antioxidant preparations E-selenium and Butofan on the productivity of newly calved cows, the composition of milk, the dispersion of milk fat and the fatty acid composition of butter. The studies were performed with 12 newly calved cows - analogues of a black-and-white breed at the age of 3 years old, formed in three groups - a control and two experimental ones having 4 animals each at LLC Zarya, Ryazan district of Ryazan region. The dispersion of milk fat was determined by the number and diameter of milk fat globules. Sweet butter was prepared from milk in the traditional way, in accordance with the current GOST. An analysis of the butter for the fatty acid composition was carried out at Moscow Independent Laboratory for the Quality of Raw Materials and Food Products, LLC, using the hardware-software complex for medical research, based on Chromatek-Crystal 5,000 chromatograph with the help of Excel program. The influence of the above preparations on the level of cow productivity, milk composition, dispersion of milk fat and fatty acid composition of butter was determined. When using preparations with antioxidant activity, processes of inhibition of lipid peroxidation processes in the body of cows at different stages of lactation occured and free radicals did not accumulate in the body. Butofan preparation had the most pronounced activity when used. The dispersed composition of milk fat in milk changed in the direction of increasing the number of fat globules with a predominance of a large fraction. This had some positive effect on the change in the composition of fatty acids in butter, on the increase in the fraction of unsaturated fatty acids and the improvement of the quality parameters of butter.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the changes in the fatty acid composition and microstructure of goat cheeses during 80 days of ripening. Creole goat milk from the Quebrada de Humahuaca was used to produce cheeses. Samples were taken 5 hours and 10, 20, 30, 40, 60 and 80 days after preparation. The composition of fatty acids for each period was determined by gas chromatography. The changes in the matrix cheese were observed using an electron microscopy. The medium-chain fatty acids and the unsaturated fatty acids decreased during the whole study but at two different velocities. They became established at the end of the ripening time, which is coincident with the decrease in fatty globule sizes: 2–4.6 µm at the beginning, 300 ηm at 30 days of ripening, and 140 ηm at the end of the maturation time studied.

Introduction. There are several important aspects requiring a control of fatty acid composition in drinking milk distributed across the retail stores: milk is one of the main consumer products; fatty acids are the main energy substrates, involved in the synthesis of cellular structural components, whereas their interaction might impact the intensity of body growth and development; the fatty acid composition of milk varies depending on the diet and the animal's specific physiological state; in case of udder diseases, a change milk composition may occur; prevention of product counterfeiting distributed across  the retail stores. Material and methods. The present research examined milk samples from five dairy producers that distribute their products across the retailing chains in Kyiv. Milk samples were collected to determine the fatty acid composition. Milk fat was extracted following the Folch method. The milk fatty acid content assessment was carried out by gas chromatography. Results. 20 fatty acids were identified in the tested milk samples. A higher level of saturated fatty acids was recorded in milk from "Ferma" and "Selyanskoye for kids" dairy producers. The highest content of unsaturated fatty acids was registered in products of “Ukrainskoe” and “Molokia” dairy trademarks. Conclusions. The fatty acid composition of the drinking cow’s milk distributed across trading networks in Kiev was found to be heterogeneous, by differing in the content of both long-chain saturated fatty acids and unsaturated fatty acids.

Abstract. Analyses were carried out on the fatty acid composition of milk fat originating from mares of three breeds: Polish Cold-Blooded, Wielkopolski and Konik Polski. Milk was collected from mares in the early, mid and late lactation. Determination of fatty acids was conducted with the gas chromatography method. The analysis of the fatty acid composition demonstrated that over the entire lactation period unsaturated fatty acids (from 52.96 % to 62.46 %), represented mainly by linolenic (22.15 %) and oleic (19.98 %) acid, were predominantly present only in samples originating from mares of the Wielkopolski breed. In milk of mares of Konik Polski, saturated fatty acids appeared to predominate (51.95 % and 52.95 %) in the early and mid lactation, whereas unsaturated fatty acids (62.28 %) predominated in the late lactation. In the case of milk samples of the Polish Cold-Blooded mares, saturated fatty acids (represented mainly by palmitic acid) were observed to prevail in the early and late lactation (55.77 % and 61.31 %), whereas unsaturated fatty acids (52.20 %) were found to negligibly prevail in the mid lactation. The study confirmed that fatty acid composition was determined by the period of lactation and breed of the mares.
