Background: A wide range of isomer-specific health benefits have been attributed to conjugated linoleic acids (CLAs). Little information is currently available on the influence of different feed components on the concentration of CLA isomers in ruminant-derived products. The aims of this study were to compare the effect of cereal mix or dried sugar beet pulp supplementations fed to grazing dairy cows on milk CLA isomeric distribution and to examine the monthly variation of CLA isomers during the grazing season.
Results: The concentrations of the isomers t7c9, t10c12 and t10t12 were higher in milk from cows supplemented with cereals (P < or = 0.001). The milk of beet pulp-supplemented cows showed higher levels of the isomers t11c13 (P < or = 0.05), t9t11 (P < or = 0.001) and t7t9 (P < or = 0.01). Total CLA as well as seven other minor isomers were not significantly affected by the concentrate type. Monthly variations occurred extensively for almost all detected isomers. Total CLAs showed the highest values at the beginning of the grazing season and in autumn in coincidence with plant regrowth.
Conclusion: These results show that even at low levels, supplement types can significantly influence the concentration of some CLA isomers in milk fat; an indication is given of the possibility to manipulate the animals' diet to change the CLA isomeric profile in ruminant-derived products.

Protected palmitic acid to mitigate milk fat depression in grazing Holstein cows in the Mexican Highlands.

The and isomers of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) are associated with anticancer and lipolytic effects in tissues, respectively, but in lactating cows, the latter isomer reduces the milk fat concentration, a detrimental aspect for the dairy industry, as it reduces the yield of milk derivatives. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of providing protected palmitic acid (PA) to grazing lactating Holstein cows supplemented with soybean oil as a source of conjugated linoleic acid, on milk production, fat concentration and mitigation of milk fat depression. Nine multiparous Holstein cows were used, distributed in three groups of three cows each, with initial means of days in milk, live weight, milk production, and number of calvings: 124 ± 16 days, 494 ± 53 kg, 20.

Consuming food containing ingredients with a documented impact on lipid metabolism can help fight overweight and obesity. The simplest way to reduce the level of fatty acids is to block their synthesis or increase the rate of their degradation. This study aimed to determine the effect of resveratrol, , conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), , CLA, and various variants of their combinations on de novo fatty acid biosynthesis in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.

The aim of this study was to characterize the highly detailed fatty acid (FA) profiles of 258 cheeses of 18 different categories of cheese collected in the mountains and on the plains of the Veneto region (Italy). The results clearly showed that, aside from the distinctive FA profiles of goat cheeses (more short-chain FAs and fewer MUFAs), the three categories of Formaggio di Malga (artisanal cheeses produced on temporary summer farms on Alpine pastures where transhumance is practiced) were very different from the other cheese categories in terms of their much higher CLA and omega-3 contents. Two categories of cheese from permanent farms in the mountains (Morlacco del Grappa and Monte Veronese PDO) were intermediate, and two other categories of cheeses originating in the mountains (Asiago PDO and Montasio PDO), but now produced mainly on the plains, were not distinguishable from the other cheese categories.

Detailed DFT studies of H and C NMR chemical shifts of hydroxy secondary oxidation products of various geometric isomers of conjugated linolenic acids methyl esters are presented. Several low energy conformers were identified for model compounds of the central dienenol OH moiety, which were found to be practically independent on the various functionals and basis sets used. This greatly facilitated the minimization process of the geometric isomers of conjugated linolenic acids methyl esters.

Article Synopsis
- Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) encompasses all isomers of linoleic acid, with cis-9, trans-11 and trans-10, cis-12 being the most beneficial for health.* -
- Regular milk and dairy products have low CLA content, so strategies are needed to boost its levels for better health outcomes.* -
- Methods to increase CLA include dietary supplementation with PUFA-rich sources, using specific bacteria in fermentation, and genetic modifications, as reviewed in recent studies.*
