This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of high n-3 or n-6 diet on free fatty acid profile and meat quality traits of pork loin. The 20 heads of commercial $Landrace{\times}Yorkshire{\times}Duroc(LYD)$ crossbreed pigs ($90.9{\pm}2.4BWkg$) were divided into four groups by added fat and oils, such as 5% tallow (Control), 5% linseed oil (T1), 5% safflower oil (T2), and mixture of linseed oil (2.5%) + safflower oil (2.5%) (T3), then reared 4 weeks. Pork loins were taken after slaughter, then sliced in 2 cm thickness and put in low-density polyethylene (LDPE) bag for analysis. T1 showed significantly high concentration of linolenic acid ($2.35{\pm}0.21%$) (p<0.05). The total amount of saturated fatty acids (SFA), mono-unsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) and poly-unsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) was significantly high in T1 ($36.05{\pm}1.18%$), C ($22.60{\pm}2.11%$) and T2 ($47.80{\pm}1.29%$), respectively (p<0.05). However, the ratio of n-6:n-3 was significantly low in T1 ($11.57{\pm}0.90$) than that of T2 ($37.56{\pm}12.51$) (p<0.05). There was no signigicant difference in lightness, redness, pH, water holding capacity and cooking loss between treatments (p>0.05). However, the yellowness of T2 was significantly higher than others (p<0.05). From those results, it was considered that feeding high n-3 and n-6 fatty acid diet to pig enables modify fatty acid profile of pork without any side effect on meat quality.

The objective of this research was to find out the potential value of flaxseed as a dietary supplement as well as an edible oil resource. The characteristics of yellow flaxseed oil and brown flaxseed oil were compared to check which oil is better in the aspects of cooking purpose and of nutritional value. The quality of flaxseed oil was evaluated based on the composition of fatty acid, the content of phenolic compounds and the anti-oxidant activity. The total phenolics of yellow flaxseed oil and brown flaxseed oil were $10.78{\pm}0.46$ and $29.88{\pm}3.25mg/100g$, respectively. Their ${\gamma}$-tocopherol contents were 20.59 and 17.94 mg/100 g, respectively. Contents of linolenic acid were 56.60 and 31.38% and oleic acid were 18.24 and 39.16 %, respectively. Yellow flaxseed oil showed higher ratio of unsaturated fatty acid than brown flaxseed oil. However, brown flaxseed oil showed higher electron-donating abilities than brown flaxseed oil, which might be due to its higher content of phenolic compounds. In conclusion, flaxseed has a great potential as a good edible oil resource due to its high content of unsaturated fatty acid and anti-oxidant activity.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of the feeding mixture of linseed oil, rich in n-3 PUFA and the sunflower seed oil, rich in n-6 PUFA on the lipid metabolism in the dietary hyperlipidemic rats. After male Sprague-Dawley rats were induced hyperlipidemia by feeding the diet containing lard, butter and cholesterol for 3 weeks, then they were fed with the diet containing lard 3 .0% and butter 12.0% for control, the mixture in different proportion of both linseed oil and sunflower seed oil and antihyperlipidemic drugs for 2 weeks. Analysis of the fatty acid composition of the serum lipoprotein fractions showed following results. In the fatty acid composition of serum lipoprotein , the proportion of C18:2 was dominant in all fractions, C20:5 in LDL and HDL fraction and C22:6 in chylomicron fraction. The ratio of n-3P/n-6P tended to increase gradually as it of the test lipid increased in groups 5 to 9 group and was affected by the fatty acid composition of the test lipids.

Analysis of the fatty acid composition of the brain and heart lipids showed following results. In the fatty acid composition of brain lipids, C20:4 and C22:6 were the major fatty acids but showed little difference among the groups. In the fatty acid of heart lipids,C18:2 was the major fatty acid. The proportion of C20:4 decreased gradually as n-3P/n-6P ratio of the test lipids increased in groups 5 (linseed oil 12.0%) to 9 (sunflower seed oil 12.0%) while the proportion of C22:6 was not affected by the fatty acid composition of the test lipids.

For the preparation of hardened films which can be applied as a binder for flame-resistant materials such as silica, linseed oil was subjected to a low temperature plasma treatment with argon, or oxygen gas. The film was produced much faster than so-called drying of oil in air. The SEM analysis for silica particles embedded in the hardened film after plasma treatment showed that the silica particles were immobilized on substrate and were evenly dispersed. The FT-IR spectral analysis for the plasma-treated linseed oil films demonstrated that the radicals which were formed during the plasma treatments caused the linseed oil to be cross-linked, and the plasmas attacked carbon chains of the oil randomly without focusing on specific vulnerable bonds such carbon double and carbonyl bonds intensively unless exposure times of the plasmas were prolonged too much, while the cross-linking of the air-dried film was considered to occur at the well-known typical sites, i.e., carbon-carbon double bond and ${\alpha}$-methylene carbon. Burning times, as a measure of flame/fire resistance, of silica-filled cellulose substrates, increased with increasing contents of silica.

This study evaluated the supplemental effects of linseed oil (LO) as a substitute for docosahexaenoic acid oil (DHAO) in the diet of juvenile Atlantic bluefin tuna. A control diet (DHA) was formulated to contain 65% enzyme-treated fish meal and 3% of DHAO. A LO diet was formulated to contain 1% LO replacing 1% DHAO in DHA diet. In a feeding trial, 300 juvenile bluefin tuna (initial body weight 1.15 g) were randomly divided into two concrete tanks (70 ton capacity) and fed one of the experimental diets for 13 days. Weight gain was higher in the LO group (519%) than in the control (443%) while survival and protein digestibility were similar between groups. The biological assessment of the tuna digestive organs did not differ between the DHA and LO groups. The fatty acid composition of the carcass showed that α-linolenic acid was only observed in the LO group, and there was no difference in the composition of eicosapentaenoic acid and docosapentaenoic acid between the groups. These results indicate that LO could be a dietary good oil source for Atlantic bluefin tuna without apparent negative effects.

A mural was discovered in the Ssanggyesa temple located in Jindo island, during repair of the Daeungjeon Hall. A study was conducted to determine the binding medium used for preparing the mural. Pyrolysis/GC/MS and IR spectrometry were used to analyze a painting specimen. Direct approach and on-line methylation approach were attempted for the pyrolysis/GC/MS. In IR analysis, the spectra of the specimen were found to be different from those of Asian lacquer, yellow lacquer, animal glue, and acrylic emulsion resin. They were also not identical to the standard IR spectra of drying oils such as linseed oil. Pyrolysis/GC/MS results of the specimen were different from those of Asian lacquer, yellow lacquer, animal glue, and acrylic emulsion resin. In the mean time, palmitic acid, octadecanoic acid, nonanedioic acid, and octadecenoic acid, which are characteristic pyrolysis products of dried drying oil, were detected. In addition, the pyrolysis/GC/MS chromatograms of the specimen and dried drying oil were also very similar. Therefore, it was concluded that the painting was prepared using drying oil as a binding medium.

Changes in polyphenol, free sugar, and organic acid concentrations and their antioxidative activities in Korean pear during storage were investigated. The antioxidant activity of polyphenols was evaluated. Polyphenol concentration in different parts of pear, peel, pulp and core, reached 25.7%. pH decreased while concentrations of free sugars, including fructose, glucose, and sucrose, increased during storage. Four organic acids, citric malic, succinic, and fumaric acids, were determined. Succinic acid was the major organic acid in the pulp and decreased after 5 month of storage. The antioxidative of polyphenol fractions I, II, and III on cottonseed, linseed, and fish oils were higher than those of the control group.

In order to understand the influence of light artifact discoloration, priority must be given to the reaction characteristics of the light the materials constituting the product. In this study, we focus on two representative medium, animal glue and linseed oil which constitute the colored layer of the painting relics. This study is based on an accelerated degradation test using two types of light emitting diods (LEDs) with different wavelength characteristics. In the experiments, discoloration appeared markedly in the animal glue and linseed oil under accelerated aging test conditions using Blue LED. Among the two types of LEDs, the degree of discoloration of the material was much higher with the Blue LED having the total radiation flux (mW). This indicates that the discoloration of painting artifacts such as animal glue and linseed oil is more significantly influenced by the total radiation flux (mW) of the light source than the total luminous flux (lm).
