  • In order to understand the effects of different oils on the production performances and polyunsaturated fatty acids and cholesterol level in the yolk. 160 Hexices hens at 42 wks were divided into four groups randomly. Each group fed with control diet (CG), control diet+5% fish oil (FG), control diet+5% palm oil (PG) and control diet+5% soybean oil (SG), respectively. After three weeks' experiment, the results showed that: different oils showed no significant effect on feed/egg weight, egg white weight, body weight, C16, C18:3 n-6 and C20:4 n-6 contents in the yolk (p>0.05). But the egg mass of PG was higher than SG (p<0.05), the average egg weight of CG was lower than FG (p<0.05), and the of PG was lower than FG (p<0.05), during the experiment, FG gained more than SG (p<0.05), the cholesterol level in yolk of FG was lower than PG and CG (p<0.01), meanwhile the C20:5 n-3 content of FG was higher than CG and SG (p<0.01), and no C20:5 n-3 was detected in PF, as far as C22:6 n-3 in the yolk was concerned, FG was higher than PG (p<0.01), the C18:1 n-9 content of SG was lower than PG (p<0.05), the C18:2 n-6 content of SG was the highest than other three groups (p<0.01), and CG was the lowest, showed significant to FG (p<0.05), the C18:3 n-3 content of FG was higher than SG and PG (p<0.05), and the C20:1 n-9 content of FG was higher than other groups (p<0.01). The results demonstrated that fish oil could decrease the cholesterol and increase the n-3 fatty acids content in the yolk, and increase the n-3/n-6 level.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the differences fatty acids and hormonal parameters in the spawning and non-spawning season between the diploid and induced triploid Far Eastern catfish, Silurus asotus. The measured triploids were produced by cold shock for 50 min at $4^{\circ}C$ in May 2014, the spawning season of diploid was in May, and the non-spawning season was designated in January. Estradiol and testosterone and gonadosomatic index of diploid were higher than those of induced triploid in spawning season (P<0.05), and those of diploid in spawning season were higher than non-spawning season. On the other hand, thyroid stimulating hormone and thyroxine of induced triploid were higher than those of diploid in spawning season (P<0.05). Erythrocyte count of diploid was higher than that of induced triploid in spawning season and non-spawning seasons. Mean corpuscular volume and mean corpuscular hemoglobin of induced triploid were higher than those of diploid in both seasons (P<0.05). Percentages of total saturated fatty acids and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids of induced triploid were higher than those of diploid in spawning season, but those of diploid were higher in non-spawning season (P<0.05). Percentages of total mono unsaturated fatty acids and total n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids of diploid were higher than those of induced triploids in spawning season, while those of induced triploid in non-spawning season were higher (P<0.05). Therefore, induced triploids in the spawning season tend to concentrate on growth and lipid-synthesization, whereas, diploids concentrate on reproduction and gonadal maturation rather than on growth. In non-spawning season, growth and lipid-synthesization were not significantly different between diploid and induced triploid.

  • The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) on eruptive movement during tooth development. Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat pups were randomly divided into two groups; control group and experimental group. The experimental group was administered daily with n-3 PUFA by intraperitoneal (IP) injection. After 10 days postpartum, rat pups were sacrificed to evaluate the effect of n-3 PUFA on eruptive tooth movement. Histological analyses were by hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) assay was performed to compare the osteoclast distribution in the bone matrix above the developing molar teeth. Incisor teeth eruptions were noticeably observed in IP group, as compared to control group. Rat pups in IP group showed faster tooth eruption on day 8 after birth. Through histological analyses, IP group showed thinner bone matrix and more osteoclasts above the $1^{st}$ molar teeth, as compared to control group. TRAP assay showed significantly stronger stained pattern that the osteoclast above the $1^{st}$ molar teeth in IP group, as compared to control group. The results suggested that n-3 PUFA could affect osteoclastic activity involved in bony remodeling during eruptive tooth movement.

  • BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: This study examined the changes in food behaviors of dietary fatty acids over 2007-2018 among Korean adults. SUBJECTS/METHODS: This study used data from the 4th (2007-2009), 5th (2010-2012), 6th (2013-2015), and 7th (2016-2018) Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys. A total of 46,307 adults aged 19-64 yrs were selected and dietary data were obtained from a single 24-h recall. In the 4th and 7th data, the major food sources for each fatty acid based on the contributing percentage of the food item were compared. The consumption trends in the major food sources were presented as grams per day over 2007-2018 and compared across the survey periods using the multiple regression model. RESULTS: From 2007 to 2018, for total fat, saturated fatty acid (SFA), and monounsaturated fatty acid, the contribution of animal food sources, including beef, chicken, and eggs increased but plant food sources (e.g., tofu, soybean, and plant oil) decreased. As polyunsaturated fatty acid sources, mayonnaise, eggs, and bread showed higher contributions, whereas soybean and tofu showed lower contributions in the 7th data compared to the 4th data. For n-3 fatty acids, the contribution of fish decreased between the 4th and 7th data. Over 12 yrs, the significant increases in the absolute amount of consumption from animal sources were observed. In contrast, decreases in the consumption from plant sources and fish were seen across the survey periods. CONCLUSIONS: In Korean adults, increases in the intake of dietary fatty acids along with changes in the food behaviors during 2007-2018 have evoked great concern for SFA intake, which is a cardiovascular disease risk factor. Healthy food sources of dietary fatty acids should be emphasized in this population.

  • Seasonal variation of uraenesox cinereus) muscle was investigated. Crude lipid content varied from 3.85 to 12.59 g/100g, comprising the highest content in November. The major fatty acids of total lipid, neutral lipid, and phospholipid were C16:0, C23:0, C16:1, C18:1, C20:5, and C22:6, but in phospholipid, Cl8:3n-6 was also the major fatty acid. The C22:6 content of the neutral lipid was much lower compared to that of the total lipid and phospholipid. The content of polyunsaturated fatty acids (ranged from 73.93 to 66.23%) in phospholipid was higher than that of any other lipid fraction. In glycolipid, C20:1 and C14:1 were higher compared to those of any other lipid fraction, but C20:5 and C22:6 were lower. The annual average ratio of n-3 to n-6 of total lipid, neutral lipid, phospholipid, and glycolipid was 10.82, 12.27, 6.63, and 6.50, respectively. The particular trend of seasonal variation of fatty acid composition was not showed in total and neutral lipid. However, the samples caught in September and November had a high crude lipid content with a significantly lower content of polyunsaturated fatty acids in phospholipid. Also, the content of monounsaturated fatty acids in glycolipid was lower in samples of September, November, and January.

  • The proximate, fatty acid and dimethyl acetal (DMA) compositions of domestic and imported melania snails Semisulcospira sp. being sold commercially were studied. The protein content ranged from 8.09% (China) to 11.3% (North Korea). The lipid content ranged from 0.84 (China) to 2.36% (North Korea). Domestic melania snail had protein (10.5%) and lipid (1.02%) contents intermediate between those of the two imported melania snails. The prominent fatty acids were 16:0 and 18:0 saturated fatty acids, 16:1n-7, 20:1n-11, 18:1n-9, 18:1n-7 and 16:1n-9 monounsaturated fatty acids, and 20:4n-6, 20:5n-3 (eicosapentaenoic acid, EPA), 22:2 non-methylene-interrupted diene (NMID), 18:3n-3, 18:2n-6 and 22:5n-3 (docosapentaenoic acid, DPA) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). The percentage of n-3 PUFA was higher in domestic (19.6%) and North Korean (imported, 19.5%) snails than in that from China (imported, 16.8%), while the n-6 PUFA level was higher in snails from China (21.2%) and domestic snails (14.7%) than in that from North Korea (9.87%). The total DMA, i.e., 18:0 DMA, 16:0 DMA and 18:1 DMA was 7.30, 7.27, and 4.86% domestic snail and those from China and North Korea, respectively. These results suggest that melania snail is a source of n-3 PUFA, and DMA derived from plasmalogen.

  • To standardize quality characteristics of commercial doenjang prepared by traditional method, general components, organic acids, amino acids and fatty acid composition were investigated. Moisture, crude protein, crude lipid, titratable acidity (expressed as milliliter of 0.1 N NaOH), acid value and salinity were 54.7%, 13.8%, 8.0%, 14.4mL, 45.7mg/g and 11.8%, respectively. The content of amino type nitrogen was 345.3mg% (w/w) in the range of 207.6 to 443.5mg% being 1.1~2.2-fold for all samples. Average value of Hunter color for L(lightness), a(redness) and b(yellowness) were 37.4, +9.7 and +21.3, respectively. Browning index value(expressed as optical density at 425 nm) of water-soluble compound(2.58) was above 7.1 times higher than that of the water-insoluble compound(0.38). Total contents of free and total amino acid were 3.81 and 9.72%, respectively, and then the former(1.1~3.7 times) was more different in all samples tested than that of the latter(1.1~2.0 times). Among amino acids, glutamic acid was abundant and its content of free and total amino acids was 0.57 and 1.24%, respectively. Of organic acids, lactic acid was the most abundant being 0.34%(average) and ranged from 0.15 to 0.86%. Linoleic acid(52.17%, as area%) was the highest content of the total fatty acids. Unsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids were 83.89 and 61.189%, respectively. Polyunsaturated fatty acid was markedly different among all samples and ranged from 51.52 to 64.91%.

  • Seakso 5, a maize hybrid, was applied for variety in 2021 by Gangwon Agricultural Research and Extension Services in Korea. This variety was bred to produce a purple extract of com husk. It shows purple color in the husk and cob and contains abundant anthocyanins. In this study, to obtain basic data on purple com 'Seakso 5' husk extract (PCHE), a husk extract was prepared and the contents of vitamins, amino acids and fatty acids were analyzed. The Seakso 5 husks were extracted with 30% alcohol and concentrated, after adding dextrin to the concentrate, it was spray-dried to prepare an extract. The PCHE were analyzed for vitamins, amino acids, and fatty acids by referring to the Food Code. As a result, three types of vitamins were detected, and their contents were vitamin B1 0.14 mg/100g, vitamin B2 2.30 mg/100g, and vitamin C 11.32 mg/100g. A total of 15 amino acids were detected in the PCHE, including aspartic acid and glutamic acid, and the content of aspartic acid was the highest at 3.02 mg/g. Simultaneous analysis of fatty acids Among 37 types, saturated fatty acids were palmitic acid (C16:0), stearic acid (C18:0), monounsaturated fatty acids were oleic acid (C18:1(n-9)), polyunsaturated fatty acids were linoleic acid(C18:2(n-6)c) and a-Linolenic Acid (C18:3(n-3)) were detected. Among the detected fatty acids, the content of palmitic acid was the highest at 40.75 mg/100g. In the future, These analysis results will be used as reference data for temporary food ingredient applications by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety.

  • The effects of dietary Int levels on lipid metabolism under fixed P/S (1.3) and n-6/n-3 (5.1) fatty acid ratios were examined in rats using palm oil, soybean oil and perilla oil. These ratios correspond to the recommended composition of dietary fat for humans. The range of dietary fat levels was 5-20% by weight (11.8-39.3% of total energy). The levels of dietary fat did not influence the concentrations of serum and liver cholesterol, whereas the level of triglycerides was gradually elevated with increasing levels of dietary fat, especially in the liver. The fatty acid composition of tissue phosphatidylcholine seemed to vary with the different levels of fat. The ratio of linoleic acid to arachidonic acid was increased more significantly in the heart than in the liver. In adipose tissue total lipids, the percentages of saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids decreased, whereas the percentage of polyunsaturated fatty acid increased, with increasing dietary Int levels. In addition, though the level of aortic prostacyclin was not uniformly affected by increasing dietary fat levels, thromboxane A2 production by platelets tended to increase with higher levels of dietary fat, suggesting an increased risk of thrombosis in this situation. Thus, even though dietary fat may have desirable compositions of fatty acids, these excessive consumption can produce unfavorable metabolic responses.
