The present study was carried out in atheroscleorotic New Zealend white(NZW) rabbits. to evaluate the effect of dietary supplementation with Korean pinenut oil, on plasma total fatty acid composition. In study I, NZW rabbits were fed 10 weeks on a commercial chow diet supplemented with 5% of energy as fats(soybean oil or pinenut oil) or 10% of energy as fats(soybean oil or pinenut oil) with the addition of 1% cholesterol to the diet. Nineteen fatty acids ranged from myristic acid (14:0) to cervonic acid (22:6 ${\omega}3$) were identified in all the samples. The c5, c9, $c12{\sim}18$ : 3 acid was not reported in the fatty acid methyl ester profiles of each group because it was included in the linoleic acid peak. The major constitutent fatty acids in the chow diet group were linoleic acid, oleic acid, palmitic acid and ${\alpha}$-linolenic acid. In the cholesterol group, oleic acid, linoleic acid and palmitic acid were the major fatty acids. In plasma of cholesterol-fed animals, the levels of 16:1 ${\omega}$ 7 and 18:1 1 ${\omega}$ 9 were increased. Linoleic acid was the major fatty acid in soybean oil/cholesterol and pinenut oil/cholesterol groups. Plasma linoleic acid levels were significantly incresed from 4 to 6% by the supplementation of 5% soybean or 5% pinenut oil in the cholesterol diet for 5 weeks, compared to cholesterol group. Plasma 16 : 1 ${\omega}$ 7 levels in animals fed with 5 or 10% pinenut oils were significantly lower than in those fed cholesterol for 5 weeks. After 10 weeks on the soybean oil and pinenut oil diet there were no significant differences in the fatty acid composition. In study II, the fatty acid composition was not affected by the types or levels of oils supplemented for 5 weeks. After 10 weeks on the oil diets 16:1 ${\omega}$ 7 and 18:1 ${\omega}$ 9 were decreased in 10% soybean in oil/cholesterol and 10% pinenut oil/cholesterol groups, compared to cholesterol group.

Fatty acid patterns were determined for 11 and 19 brands of household margarines from the local markets in Korea in 1983 and 1984, respectively. Gas-liquid chromatographic analyses on OV-275 column showed that the average content of total trans fatty acids was 18% ranging from 6.2 to 35.5% for the margarines produced in 1983. The prototype of trans fatty acids was trans-octadecenoic acid. There was a small amount of c, t-or t, c-octadecadienoic, whereas there were practically no t, t-octadecadienoic acid. Trans fatty acids was increased in proportion to linoleic acid contents. For the margarines produced in 1984.. percentage of trans fatty acids tended to decrease, while that of linoleic acid was increased as compared with the corresponding values for the 1983 products. Thus, the P/S ratio was increased markedly in the soft type margarines produced in 1984. However, Korean margarines contained seemingly less linoleic acid than that contained in Japanese margarines.

The bioconversion of linoleic acid (LA) to conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) was investigated to examine LA-adaptation of Bifidobacterium breve KCTC 3461 to additions of 1 to 5 mg/mL of LA overtime. To induce LA-adaptation, B. breve KCTC 3461 was treated with LA, according to three schemes. For LA-adapted B. breve the maximum concentration of CLA, $300\~350{\mu}g/mL$, was obtained in cys-MRS medium containing 1 mg/mL of LA. The CLA production significantly increased with increasing LA concentration, from 1 to 4 mg/mL, but the conversion of LA to CLA gradually decreased. The CLA production capability of B. breve, and its tolerance, improved significantly with LA-adaptation. The addition of LA (1 mg/mL) into the culture broth after 24 h of cultivation in a 100-mL media bottle was most effective at promoting CLA production. In a 2.5-L stirred-tank bioreactor, the observed conversion and productivity of $56.6\%\;and\;35.4{\mu}gmL^{-1}h^{-1}$, respectively, by LA-adapted B. breve were approximately 6.6 and 9.8 times higher than those of LA-unadapted B. breve.

Six commercial ginseng products, red ginseng, white ginseng I and II, red ginseng extract, white ginseng extract I and II were extracted with ethyl ether. Total fatty acid composition of the extracted free lipids was analyzed by gas liquid chromatography and digital integrator was used to measure the area of each peak. Crude lipid contents of red and white ginsengs were similiar. Those of red ginseng extract, white ginseng extract I and II were 1.10, 1.13 and 0.40%, respectively. It was found that 22 kinds of fatty acids existed in red and white ginsengs. Among them, 16 kinds of even numbered fatty acids were identified. Linoleic acid in red and white ginsengs was the most abundant. The contents of that in red ginseng, white ginseng I and II were 63.33, 45.55 and 41.06%, respectively. The next most abundant acid was palmitic acid, the contents of which were 11.30, 14.4 and 18.10% for red ginseng, white ginseng I and II, respectively. Major fatty acids for red ginseng extract and white ginseng extract I were linoleic and palmitic acids in the same order of magnitude. Linoleic and palmitic acids for red ginseng extract were 15.93 and 15.71 %, respectively, while linoleic and palmitic acids for white ginseng extract I were 21.94 and 19.15%, respectively. However, white ginseng extract II contained only 9.21% of linoleic acid and 16.13% of palmitic acid which was the major fatty acid.

Composition of fatty acids (FAs) in Pleurotus ostreatus were analyzed by gas chromatography and compositional changes according to cultivar, fruitbody section and developmental stage (days after primordia formation) were investigated. Major FAs in oyster mushroom were linoleic acid, oleic acid and palmitic acid. Unsaturated FAs were higher in pileus portion than upper- or lower-stipe portion. Oleic acid content was increased with developmental days but linoleic acid content was highest at $3{\sim}4$ days after primordia formation and then decreased after that. And ratio of unsaturated FAs/saturated FAs was decreased with basidiocarp maturation.

A synthetic pathway, which consisted of fatty acid double bond hydratase, alcohol dehydrogenase, and Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase, was applied to Chlorella oil to produce ester fatty acids, which can be hydrolyzed into medium chain fatty acids. Since linoleic acid is a major fatty acid constituent of Chlorella oil, a fatty acid double bond hydratase from Lactobacillus acidophilus NBRC13951, which is able to convert linoleic acid into 13-hydroxyoctadec-9-enoic acid, was used. Recombinant Escherichia coli expressing the fatty acid double bond hydratase from L. acidophilus NBRC13951 successfully transformed linoleic acid in Chlorella oil hydrolysates into 13-hydroxyoctadec-9-enoic acid with approximately 60% conversion yield. 13-Hydroxyoctadec-9-enoic acid was further converted into ester fatty acids by the recombinant E. coli expressing a long chain secondary alcohol dehydrogenase and a Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase. The resulting ester fatty acids were then hydrolyzed into medium chain fatty acids by a lipase. Overall, industrially relevant medium chain fatty acids were produced from Chlorella oil hydrolysates. Thereby, this study may contribute to biosynthesis of medium chain fatty acids from microalgae oils as well as long chain fatty acids.

Raw adlay powder (RAP) and processed adlay powder (PAP) were prepared and the changes of fatty acid compositions of lipids in RAP and PAP during storage at $5^{\circ}C\;and\;35^{\circ}C$ for six months were studied. The major fatty acids found in the adlay lipids were oleic acid (28-45%), linoleic acid (38-50%) and palmitic acid (14-18%). Throughout the storage period, the concentrations of linoleic acid were decreased in samples stored at $35^{\circ}C$, but those of oleic acid and palmitic acid were relatively increased according to the oxidation proceeded. However, the concentrations of these fatty acids were hardly changed in samples stored at $5^{\circ}C$. These changes were especially more notable in the lipids from RAP than those from PAP during storage Little difference in fatty acid composition was noted between neutral lipids and triglycerides in the samples.
