This study was designed to observe the effects of the fish oil and some seed oils on the improvement of the fatty acid compositions of liver and brain tissue in rats. In order to induce the hypertriglyceridemia in the rats of the Sprague-Dawley, 12% coconut oil and 3% each of olive oil, lard, fish oil, perilla oil, corn oil, red pepper seed oil and evening primrose oil were administered to the rats for 4 weeks. In the fatty acid composition of liver lipid, n-3 PUFA contents were most in the fish oil and perilla oil groups of phospholipid fraction, and n-6 PUFA contents were most in the corn oil, red pepper seed oil and evening primrose oil groups of triglyceride fractions. Fatty acid composition of liver lipid fractions were influenced from the fatty acid composition of the test lipids. In the fatty acid composition of brain phospholipid, n-3 PUFA contents (8.8~17.2%) were most in the fish oil group, and n-6 PUFA (34.6~38.2%), though it contains high percentage, showed little difference between groups.

Human plasma low density lipoprotein (LDL) is the major factor of coronary heart disease.But recent studies suggest the normal LDL can be realdily oxidized by oxygen free radicals and not interact with LDL receptors.Lipoprotei particles consist of lipid and protein, and fatty acids are prone to oxidatioin.The fatty acid compositions of LDL from Koreans was compared with that of Westerners.From the results, the raio of unsaturated fatty acids of korean and Westerner approximately 30 and 70%, respectively.which means Westerners are more labile in the lipid oxidation of LDL than Koreams.Normal LDL was incubated with $CuSO_4$ in PBS to lead for the peroxidation of LDL, and it was tested by the detection of TBARS and free radicals.Then, ascorbate, ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ and hyaluronic acid were found to have effects of antioxidants on LDL oxidation.The amount of free radical increased as the extent of oxidation increased.The time course of free radical formation was similar to TBARS.Therefore, determination of free radical by Luminometer was much more convenient than that of TBARS.

Biodiesel is a fatty acid alkyl ester produced by chemical reaction of a vegetable oil or animal fat and an alcohol. It is getting attention as a clean alternative energy that can replace gas oils. In this study, strong acidic ion exchange resin was introduced in the pretreatment process of the used cooking oil and rapeseed oil to enhance the conversion of the oil to the biodiesel by removing FFA(free fatty acid). More than 90% FFA was removed. Dry resins showed higher FFA removal efficiency than wet resins. Using transesterification the conversion of triglyceride into fatty acid methyl ester was raised up to 98%. These results can be applicable to the pretreatment of biodiesel feedstocks having high acidic value.

This study aims at revealing the effects of the feeding mixed $\omega$-3 perilla oil and $\omega$-6 red pepper oil on fatty acid compositions of serum and platelet in rats. The diet administered to the male rats of Sprague - Dawley was composed of the peril1a oil containing about 60% $\omega$-3 linolenic acid as well as the red pepper oil with roughly 64% of $\omega$-6 linoleic acid. In the total fatty acid composition of serum lipid, SFA had no great significance among the groups, while MUFA ranged from 14.4% to 17.0% and PUFA stood from 48.0% to 53.0%. PUFA compositions of phospholipid, triglyceride and cholesteryl ester fractions, $C_{18:2}$ ($\omega$-6) was the highest in cholesteryl ester than the other components. In platelet's fatty arid composition, SFA were low in groups 2 (7.5% perilla oil＋2.5% red pepper oil) and 3 (5.0% perilla oil ＋5.0% red pepper oil), and the highest in group 5 (10% red pepper oil). MUFA stood the highest in group 3 and the lowest in group 5, while PUFA was the lowest in group 2. Ratio of EPA / AA was the highest in group 2, but group 5 was the lowest.t.

피마자유(Castor oil)는 합성수지, 그리스, 유압용 오일, 윤활기유 등의 다양한 용도로 쓰이는 오일로서 점도가 높고 무색에서 황갈색을 띈다. 피마자유 추출은 압착 착유 또는 용매 추출로 얻게 되며 본 실험에 사용된 오일은 압착 착유한 것으로 매우 진한 갈색을 띄는 정제전 오일을 이용하였다. 실험에 사용된 피마자유의 초기 산가는 1mgKOH/g 이하로 낮은 유리지방산 함량을 보였으며 수분은 0.3%로 전이에스테르화 반응을 위해서는 수분 증발이 필요했다. 피마자유의 바이오디젤 생산을 위해 진행된 물성 분석 항목은 산가, 수분, 인함량, 황함량, 점도, 고형물이며 원료유와 그 바이오디젤에 대해 각각 물성 분석을 실시하였다. 피마자유의 가장 큰 특징은 다른 식물성 오일과는 다르게 오일이 알코올에 녹는 특성이 있으며 이런 이유로 전이에스테르화 반응 후 바이오디젤과 글리세롤이 분리되지 않는 문제점을 갖고 있다. 피마자유를 이용해 제조한 바이오디젤, 즉 지방산메틸에스터의 함량을 분석한 결과 약 90%의 메틸에스터화 반응 전환율을 나타내었으나 국내외 품질규격상의 탄소수 C14~C24:0의 지방산 에스터(fatty acid methyl esters)로 검출되는 바이오디젤의 함량은 10% 미만으로 나타났으며 나머지 90%는 라이신올레익산메틸에스터(ricinoleic acid methyl ester)로 분석되었다. 따라서, 기존의 대두유, 유채유, 팜유, 폐식용유로부터 제조한 바이오디젤과 물성이 매우 상이하고 특히 끊는점(boiling point)과 점도가 높아 경유 대체연료로는 활용이 불가능할 것으로 판단된다. 하지만 기존의 다양한 용도의 오일로 사용하기 위해 정제하는 과정에서 전체 착유 오일중의 약 10%만을 선택적으로 분리하여 바이오디젤 원료로 활용하는 방안은 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

The fatty acid composition of the oil in the rapeseed grown by spring and autumn planting were determined by gas liquid phase chromatography. Erucic acid content of the rapeseed oil grown by autumn planting was higher than that produced by spring planting, but the contents of oleic acid and linoleic acid were lower in autumn planting than those in spring planting. There was significant difference at 1% level between seasonal plantings. The reasons for the different fatty acid compositions were the low integrated temperature, the high amount of precipitation and the short hours of sunshine during the maturing period in autumn planting.

The seeds of Torreya nucifera, which were shown to contain high level of oil, were characterized to evaluate their possible utilization as oil source. Oil was extracted by compression from the seeds and its physico-chemical properties and, total fatty acid composition were determined. The results are summarized as follows: 1. Proximate components of the seeds were shown to be: moisture, 12.3% ; crude protein, 9.46%; crude fat, 54.29 %; fiber, 5.28 %; ash, 2.13%. 2. Physico-chemical characteristics of the seed oil were determined as follows: specific gravity 0.92, refractive index 1.470, iodine value 127, saponification value 182.2, acid value 9.5, ester value 172.7. 3. The major fatty acids of the total lipids were linoleic (46.77%), oleic (31.68%) and palmitic acid (6.92%).

Non-edible oil sources (i.e., Palm Acid Oil, waste animal fat) usually contain relatively high amount of free fatty acids (FFA) that make them inadequate for direct base catalyzed transesterification reaction. Enzymatic biodiesel synthesis can solve several problems posed by the alkaline-catalyzed transesterification, and has certain advantages over the chemical catalysis of transesterification, as it is less energy intensive, allows easy recovery of glycerol and the transesterification of glycerides with high free fatty acid contents. In this study, we synthesized biodiesel through enzymatic catalyzed process using high free fatty acid containing waste oil in biodiesel reactor (1 ton/day) and optimized the biodiesel production processes.

The neutrichemical analysis of hempseed from Cheungsam was performed in order to apply hempseed to food industry. Cheungsam hempseed was mainly composed of crude fat (30.52%) and protein (30.02%). The hempseed fat contained about 88% of polyunsaturated fatty acids, and the omega-6 to omega-3 ratio was determined to be approximately 3:1. Hempseed from Cheungsam was rich in essential amino acids. Moreover, hempseed protein from Cheungsam, extracted by acid-base precipitation method, showed free radical scavenging activity. The results suggest that Cheungsam hempseed protein could be utilized as a superior source of protein nutrition.

Bokbunja (Rubus coreanus) is a Korean fruit and wild black raspberry that has antioxidant, anticancer, and beauty effects due to its abundant polyphenols and anthocyanins. The purpose of this study was to investigate the blood flow improvement effect of Bokbunja seed oil (BSO) in a high-fat diet-fed mouse model. We examined improvement of blood flow and its related biomarkers in vivo. Mice were divided into four groups; Control, high fat diet control (negative control, HFD), salmon oil control (positive control, HFD+commercial n-3 fatty acid), and BSO experiment groups (HFD+2 g/2,000 kcal, HFD+4 g/2,000 kcal). After the mice were sacrificed, plasma triglyceride, cholesterol, and blood flow-related biomarkers (coagulation factor 7, 12, serotonin, TXB2, PT, and aPTT) were measured in mouse blood and organs. BSO reduced blood viscosity through improvement of blood lipids (cholesterol and plasma triglycerides) as well as levels of blood coagulation factors and blood platelet activity. BSO also delayed blood coagulation time. Thus, we confirmed that BSO inhibits excessive blood clotting of blood vessels and improves blood flow. Taken together, these results suggest that BSO decreases plasma triglycerides and cholesterol and improves blood flow by regulating biomarkers.
