The Metabolic and Hormonal Effect of Prolonged Submaximal Exercise in Pregnancy and in Anorexia Nervosa (Essential Fatty Acids)
A study was conducted to evaluate the metabolic and hormonal response to moderate intensity exercise for 60 minute duration. The exercise response in two groups of subjects, pregnant women in the fourth month of gestation and patients with the eating disorder anorexia nervosa, were compared with a …

IMPORTANCE OF SUPPLYING DAIRY COWS WITH ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS (EFA) AND CONJUGATED LINOLEIC ACIDS (CLA) DURING THE TRANSITION PERIOD ON METABOLISM AND HEALTH
… A periparturient supplementation with essential fatty acids (EFA) and conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) has been shown to influence different aspects of lipid and energy metabolisms as well as markers of immune homeostasis in dairy cows. This study aimed at investigating the synergistic …

An Investigation into Long-Chain Polyunsaturated Essential Fatty Acids, Event Related Potential Assessments of Brain Function and Behavioural Measures in Children and Adolescents with and without Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
… differences in long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) between male adolescents with and without ADHD, and the relationship between these and performance and event related potential (ERP) assessments of brain function and clinical behavioural measures. ERPs were also investigated …

Causes and consequences of soil carbon mobilization and lake brownification in northern forested landscapes
… due to cyanobacteria having a lower content of essential fatty acids. The decline in phytoplankton quality did not impact the essential fatty acid content of primary consumers, but it shifted their reliance from essential fatty acids transferred from phytoplankton, to essential fatty acids …

Elucidating the Relation between Human Milk Fatty Acids, Extracellular Vesicles, and Infant Developmental Outcomes in the First Year of Life
… consume human milk compared to infant formula. Essential fatty acids (EFAs) confer health benefits. However, EFAs cannot be synthesized by the body, and therefore must be consumed in diet. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoparticles containing a lipid bilayer membrane and are present in human …

The Influence of Dietary Fat on The Cerebral Microvasculature: Compositional, Prostaglandin Synthetic, and Permeability Studies
… feeding of single fat sources, differing in essential fatty acids, on membrane-based phenomena in the cerebral cortex and microvasculature the following studies were conducted. Rats fed purified diets containing 10% corn, hydrogenated coconut, or linseed oils through two generations were …

Pregnancy outcomes of women with Type 2 and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM): specific focus on client engagement with health professionals, diagnosis of GDM and supplementation with omega 3 fatty acids
Maternal nutrition is essential to the well being of mother and baby during pregnancy and beyond. It is necessary for effective placental accretion, foetal growth and development and optimal pregnancy outcomes. Adequate nutrition becomes even more critical when pregnancies are complicated with …

Biomarkers (lipids, fatty acids and stable isotopes) to examine diet of the sea urchin Evechinus chloroticus.
… Zealand rocky reefs. Biomarkers, such as lipids, fatty acids and stable isotopes, were combined to improve the knowledge of feeding habits of wild sea urchins from north-eastern New Zealand, revealing a high contribution from Ecklonia radiata to E. chloroticus diets, but also a contribution from …

Determination of biologically active substances in Black Sea algae//Определяне на биологично активни вещества в черноморски водорасли
… active compounds, including polyunsaturated fatty acids, sterols, proteins, polysaccharides, antioxidants, pigments among others. Various biologically active substances in algae and valuable applications of algae in practice are described in the literature review. Among the biologically …

Fatty Acids as Biomarkers of Plankton Trophic Structure in Table Rock Lake, Missouri
Recently, fatty acid profiles have been used as an alternative to stable isotopes for measuring trophic linkages in freshwater food webs. An advantage of fatty acids is that many different compounds can be resolved and most of these are conserved, providing a "signature” of different food resources …

ALTERNATIVE LIPIDS IN NUTRITION OF MARINE FINFISH
… elevated content of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs; ARA – 20:4n-6, EPA – 20:5n-3, and DHA – 22:6n-3), being a valuable ingredient. Given the finite supply and the growing demand for fish oil its price has increased quite drastically, leading to the search for alternative lipid …

The use of bakery wastes as a nutritional source for fish
… This was due to an apparent deficiency of some essential fatty acids. The growth responses of mirror carp grown in extensive ponds fed a supplemental diet of only bakery wastes were investigated. Protein sparing of natural protein from zooplankton in teh pond was seen to occur at all levels of …

Cardioprotective Effect of Lipid Emulsion on Acute Exogenous Drug Intoxications // Кардиопротективен ефект на липидна емулсия при остри екзогенни интоксикации с медикаменти
… LEs were developed to meet the necessity for essential fatty acids in patients receiving parenteral nutrition. In the last 15 years, a new effect of LE has been discovered, initially for the treatment of local anesthetic systemic toxicity (LAST), and subsequently, their ability to capture …

The Effects of Food Quality and Temperature on Mesozooplankton Physiology
… organic ratios N:P, C:N and C:P and fatty acid content, on Temora longicornis feeding, respiration, and egg production rates (EPR). Maximum metabolic rates, assimilation efficiency and gross growth efficiency coincided with an optimum diet of ~16N:1P defining it as the copepod …

The Effect of Highly Unsaturated Fatty Acids (HUFA) on Lake Trout (Salve linus namaycush) Alevins Using Artemia nauplii Enriched with Commercial Emulsions and Dry Diets
Highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) are important nutrients for fish survival, development, and reproduction. Fish oil (PO), rich in HUFA, is the dominant lipid source for first feeds in salmonid aquaculture. To determine if other lipid sources would influence survival, growth, and fatty acid …

An investigation of land-use impacts on water quality and algal communities in the Nottawasaga River and low-order streams of the Nottawasaga Valley Watershed
… was important in describing the variation in fatty acid composition of periphyton biomass, as described by redundancy analysis. Total chlorophyll content was directly linked with increases in certain fatty acid proportions, some of which can be classified as essential fatty acids.

Nutritional regulation of egg production of Calanus Finmarchicus in the North Atlantic
… in terms of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and the essential fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; 20:5(n-3)) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22:6(n-3)). Five consecutive 24 hr bottle incubations were conducted in April and July/August 2002 under in situ conditions to determine egg production rates …

Microbial glycerolipids in the global ocean: environmental controls and sinking flux dynamics
… temperature is a major controlling factor on fatty acid saturation state and hypothesize this derives from known biophysical constraints on cell membranes. I extend this analysis further to investigate links between long-chain essential fatty acids (LCEFA) and temperature. My analysis shows …
