Pelleted diets containing from 0 to 15% canola seed were fed twice daily to growing-finishing pigs. Live performance and carcass measurements were not adversely affected, but level of canola seed directly influenced the proportions of unsaturated fatty acids (especially linoleic and linolenic) in the backfat.

Abstract Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of feeding fermented mixed feed (FMF) on performance, meat quality, muscle fatty acids profile and antioxidant ability in finishing pigs. In experiment 1, 225 finishing pigs were allocated into 3 dietary treatments. Pigs in 3 groups were fed a basic diet or basic diet supplemented with 4% and 8% of FMF. After 35 days of the experiment, growth performance was evaluated. In experiment 2, 600 pigs were distributed into 3 treatments, which were fed with a basic diet or basic diet supplemented with 5% and 10% of FMF. At the end of the experiment, 24 pigs were slaughtered for the determination. In experiment 1, feeding 8% FMF improved (P < 0.05) ADG and decreased (P < 0.05) F/G compared with CON. In experiment 2, compared with CON, dietary supplementation with 10% FMF decreased (P < 0.05) F/G. Moreover, the ADFI and ADG were tended to be higher in pigs fed the FMF diet. Feeding 10% FMF increased (P < 0.05) loin muscle area, a* value, marbling score, intramuscular fat (IMF), and inosine acid (IMP) and decreased (P < 0.05) drip loss and shear force of longissimus thoracis (LT) muscle. The percentages of C18:1ω-9c, C18:2ω-6c, and C20:4ω-6c in LT muscle were increased (P < 0.05) in pigs fed 10 % FMF diet. Furthermore, greater (P < 0.05) SOD and GSH-Px activities were observed in 10 % FMF group in serum and LT muscle of pigs. Collectively, the present study suggested that dietary FMF supplementation improved the growth performance, meat quality parameters, unsaturated fatty acids proportions, and antioxidant ability.

The fatty add profile of pig fat has profound effects upon both the eating and keeping quality of pig meat. Fatty adds within carcass fat may arise from two discrete sources, being de novo synthesis and direct deposition from fatty acids present In the diet. The relative contribution of these two routes, together with the fatty acid profile of dietary fat, will Influence the chemical composition of carcass fat. It is well established that diets containing high levels of unsaturated fatty acids will result in softer and oilier carcass fat and It Is often considered inappropriate to feed such diets during the finishing phase of pig growth. However the speed with which carcass fat reflects a change in dietary fat has not been quantified. The objective of the current trial was to measure the rate of change in fatty acid profile of carcass fat of finishing pigs following major changes in dietary fat.

Twenty samples of canola seed collected throughout south-western Australia after the 1995 harvest were analysed for oil and total glucosinolate levels. Average oil and total glucosinolate levels were 378 g/kg and 14.0 mmol/kg (oil-free dry matter, DM), respectively. The subsequent single-press canola meal [containing an average of 96 g/kg oil and 10.5 mmol/kg total glucosinolates (oil-free DM)] extracted from 8 batches of the original canola seed was then used in 2 growth experiments. In Expt 1, canola meal was included in diets for growing–finishing pigs at levels of 0, 50, 100, 150, and 200 g/kg in the diet, and replaced Australian sweet lupins. In this study, feed was offered on an ad libitum basis between 23 and 110 kg liveweight (LW). In Expt 2, the same inclusion levels of canola meal were used; however, feed intake was standardised across treatments (approximately 3 times maintenance) to assess the impact of glucosinolate intake on performance and thyroid weight in pigs between 19 and 94 kg LW. In Expt 1, performance was similar (P > 0.05) in pigs offered up to 200 g/kg of canola meal. In Expt 2, average daily gain was similar between treatments (P > 0.05), although a linear decline in both daily gain (P = 0.244) and feed : gain (P < 0.05) with increasing canola meal levels was detected. Increasing amounts of canola meal in the diet were associated with heavier (P < 0.001) thyroid weights, suggesting a negative influence of the products of glucosinolate hydrolysis on thyroid function. Single-press canola meal is a suitable alternative to other protein sources; however, at levels >150 g/kg for growing–finishing pigs, higher intakes of glucosinolates were associated with a tendency for decreased pig performance and thyroid hypertrophy despite the canola varieties used being ‘low glucosinolate’.

The article analyzes the role of essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), especially omega-3 series in humans and animals. The biosynthesis of essential PUFA in humans and animals is very limited, so they must be consumed with food (feed). Тhe ratio of omega-3 and omega-6 PUFA is very important. Biomembranes of animal cells contain about 30% PUFA with a ratio of ω-6/ ω-3 1-2. As this ratio increases, the physicochemical properties of biomembranes and the functional activity of their receptors change. The regulatory function of essential PUFA is that in the body under the action of oxygenase enzymes (cyclooxygenase, lipoxygenase) are formed extremely active hormone-like substances (eicosanoids and docosanoids), which affect a number of physiological processes: inflammation, immunity, metabolism. Moreover, ω-6 PUFA form eicosanoids, which have pro-inflammatory, immunosuppressive properties, and ω-3 PUFAs form eicosanoids and docosanoids, which have anti-inflammatory and immunostimulatory properties. Deficiency of essential PUFA, and especially ω-3 PUFA, leads to impaired development of the body and its state of health, which are manifestations of avitaminosis F. Prevention and treatment of avitaminosis F is carried out with drugs that contain PUFA. To create new, more effective vitamin F preparations, it is necessary to reproduce the model of vitamin F deficiency. An experimental model of vitamin F deficiency in white rats kept on a fat –free diet with the addition of coconut oil, which is almost completely free of unsaturated fatty acids, and saturated fatty acids make up almost 99 % of all fatty acids was developed. The total content of ω-6 PUFA (sum of linoleic and arachidonic acids), the content of ω-3 PUFA (α-linolenic, eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic acids) in neutral lipids (triglycerides and cholesterol esters) defined. Тhe content of ω-6 PUFA under the influence of coconut oil decreased by 3.3 times, and the content of ω-3 PUFA - by 7.5 times. Тhe influence of coconut oil, the content of ω-6 PUFA decreased by 2.1 times, and the content of ω-3 PUFA - by 2.8 times. The most strongly reduces the content of ω-3 PUFA, namely eicosapentaenoic, coconut oil, starting from 5 %. Consumption of FFD with a content of 15 % coconut oil reduces the content of eicosapentaenoic acid to zero, ie we have an absolute deficiency of one of the most important essential PUFAs, which determined the presence of vitamin F deficiency.

The study was designed to investigate the chemical composition and the biological effects of G. parviflora and V. polyanthes ethanolic extracts in vitro. Total content of phenols, flavonoids and tannins was quantified by spectrophotometry; chemical characterization was permed by mass spectrometry (ESI (-) FT-ICR MS and APCI (+) FT-ICR MS analysis). Antioxidant activities were determined by FRAP and Fe2+ chelating methods. Extracts cytotoxicity was evaluated in human lymphocytes, sarcoma-180 (S-180) and human gastric adenocarcinoma (AGS) cells, by MTT assay. V. polyanthes presented higher total content of tannins and G. parviflora presented higher amount of phenols and flavonoids. Chemical characterization showed the presence of flavonoids, phenolic acids and sesquiterpene lactones in V. polyanthes extract, and steroids, phenolic acids and fatty acids (Poly Unsaturated Fatty Acids - PUFA) in G. parviflora extract. V. polyanthes extract stood out in the Fe2+ chelation test. G. parviflora extract did not present outstanding antioxidant results in the tested protocols. Both species showed a tendency to promote cytotoxicity in human lymphocyte cells. Regarding the antiproliferative effect, both species were able to reduce S-180 cell viability and G. parviflora extract showed high antiproliferative potential in the assay with AGS cells. These findings reinforce the medicinal use of these plants, as well as suggest their potential use for the development of new drugs and for the treatment of cancers.

Food is not just a pleasure in life, it is also an important factor for our health. Human nutrition is a mixture of nutrients, which are the only source of energy needed for survival. Energy-poor diet endangers many life functions, and above all the working ability. In the world, the meaning of the diet is very serious, and hence the demands for a –rational, healthy and safe diet are growing. Human nutrition contains saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. Essential fatty acids (EFAs) must be ingested in everyday diet because the body does not produce it. They are very important for human health. They are present in each cell of the human body and are an important factor for the normal growth, development and functioning of cells, muscles, nerves and organs. They are also used in the production of certain hormones - such as prostaglandins, which are crucial for the performance of certain important processes. The deficit from EFAs is due to a number of health problems, including more serious diseases.
