In the water-maze test, the linoleic acid derivative, 8-[2-(2-pentyl-cyclopropylmethyl)-cyclopropyl]-octanoic acid (DCP-LA) (1 mg/kg, intraperitoneally), significantly shortened the prolonged latency for accelerated-senescence-prone mice 8 (SAMP8), reaching a level similar to the latency for accelerated-senescence-resistant mice 1 (SAMR1) as control. In the open-field test to assess motor activity, it was confirmed that the DCP-LA effect is not due to increased motor activity. In the passive avoidance test to assess fear memory, DCP-LA had no effect on the latency of acquisition and retention for SAMP8. The results of the present study, thus, suggest that DCP-LA could improve age-related learning impairment by enhancing cognitive functions.

Quality analysis of fruit oil samples from cultivars with different phenotypes.

Food Chem X

January 2025

College of Brewing and Food Engineering, Guizhou University, Guiyang 550025, Guizhou, China.

To study the quality characteristics of fruit oil () samples under varying phenotypic traits and their differences, three typical phenotypic fruits of the same cultivar were compared, both morphologically and chemically. The results revealed that the highest water content (51.90 %) occurred in small red fruits (RID-S), and the highest oil content (20.

Background: Ruminant milk is a very complex table food and naturally encrypted with different components possessing various health-promoting characteristics.

Aim: In the present study, we focused on breed-wise compositional difference in milk including various components and release of fatty acids and peptides during digestion.

Methods: First, milk samples were analysed using lactoscan LW milk analyser, MALDI-TOF and gas chromatography.

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of sunflower cake (SFC) levels (0, 7, 14, 21, and 28% dry matter) in the diet for feedlot lambs on meat quality and its fatty acid profile. Forty crossbreed non castrated hair lambs were fed with experimental diets through 70 days when they were slaughtered and a Longissimus lumborum section were evaluated for physicochemical quality and fatty acid profile. There were no effects of SFC levels (P > 0.

Determination of main lipids and volatile compounds in unconventional cold-pressed seed oils through chromatographic techniques.

J Food Sci

January 2025

Department of Chemical, Biological, Pharmaceutical and Environmental Sciences, Messina Institute of Technology, University of Messina, Messina, Italy.

The purpose of this study was to characterize unconventional cold-pressed seed oils (rosehip, strawberry, blackcurrant, carrot, plum, pomegranate, radish, and raspberry) as novel alternative edible oil source. A chemical characterization of different lipid components (total fatty acid composition, triacylglycerols, and vitamin E) and volatiles responsible for the particular aroma of these oils was reported. All the oils showed a content of unsaturated fatty acids, mainly oleic, linoleic, and α-linolenic acid, that potentially contribute to the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, in the range of 80%-90%.
