Book Conjugated Linoleic Acids and Conjugated Vegetable Oils

Download or read book Conjugated Linoleic Acids and Conjugated Vegetable Oils written by Bert Sels and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2014-07-11 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) isomers of linoleic acid – a compound derived from meat and dairy products. Attention was first drawn to their potential anti-carcinogen properties in the 1980’s; since then further health benefits have been reported, and applications in the glue and paint industries as a renewable resource have been explored. This comprehensive book presents an overview of the background and research into CLA and examines each of their applications in the context of the chemistry surrounding them and CLA-enriched oils. The biosynthesis of CLA is presented, with a discussion on how animal husbandry could promote CLA production. Other chapters examine the current strategies for their synthesis using bespoke catalysts and enzymes. Readers from academia and industry will find the layout of the book highly accessible, with sections for each application. The editors are both active researchers in the field, and have brought together a wealth of expertise from across the globe, presenting a comprehensive guide to this valuable group of compounds and their potential applications.

Book Fatty Acids in Foods and their Health Implications Third Edition

Download or read book Fatty Acids in Foods and their Health Implications Third Edition written by Ching Kuang Chow and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2007-11-19 with total page 1296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the publication of the bestselling second edition, mounting research into fatty acids reveals new and more defined links between the consumption of dietary fats and their biological health effects. Whether consuming omega-3 to prevent heart disease or avoiding trans fats to preserve heart health, it is more and more clear that not only the quantity but the type of fatty acid plays an important role in the etiology of the most common degenerative diseases. Keeping abreast of the mechanisms by which fatty acids exert their biological effects is crucial to unraveling the pathogenesis of a number of debilitating chronic disorders and can contribute to the development of effective preventive measures. Thoroughly revised to reflect the most resent research findings, Fatty Acids in Foods and their Health Implications, Third Edition retains the highly detailed, authoritative quality of the previous editions to present the current knowledge of fatty acids in food and food products and reveal diverse health implications. This edition includes eight entirely new chapters covering fatty acids in fermented foods, the effects of heating and frying on oils, the significance of dietary ?-linolenate in biological systems and inflammation, biological effects of conjugated linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid, and the role of fatty acids in food intake and energy homeostasis, as well as cognition, behavior, brain development, and mood disease. Several chapters underwent complete rewrites in light of new research on fatty acids in meat, meat products, and milk fat; fatty acid metabolism; eicosanoids; fatty acids and aging; and fatty acids and visual dysfunction. The most complete resource available on fatty acids and their biological effects, Fatty Acids in Foods and their Health Implications, Third Edition provides state-of-the-science information from all corners of nutritional and biomedical research.

Book Analysis  Processing and Product Development of Conjugated Linoleic Acid rich Oil

Download or read book Analysis Processing and Product Development of Conjugated Linoleic Acid rich Oil written by Utkarsh M. Shah and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To obtain the estimated optimum dietary Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) levels from conventional bovine sources would necessitate an increase in the intake of dietary saturated fat and cholesterol. Therefore, a CLA-rich low saturated fat source is highly desirable. A CLA-rich oil has been produced from soy oil by iodine homogeneous photo-catalysis with predominant trans,trans CLA. This has been shown to have significant health benefits in animal studies.
