Atherosclerosis, a multifactorial disease, is closely related to lipid nutrition , Data from well known epidemiological studies including Seven Country , Framinghsam Study and several intervention trials have confirmed that serum cholesterol is the major risk factor and elevation of LDL-cholesterol level is most undesriable. On the basis of results concurring in that dietary saturated fat and cholesterol increase serum cholesterol while polyunsaturated fat decrease it, changes in serum choesterol level have been predicted by regression equations developed by Keys et al. and other investigators. Effects of individual fatty acids on the level of serum cholesterol have been further differentiated by chain length, cis-trans isomers and n-6 vs n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. Among them the effect of n-3 fatty acids has been well recogniaed as antiplatelet activity, thus reducing the incidence of atherosclerosis. Role of vitamin E in prevention of atherosclerosis has been evovled from works showing that LDL oxdiation stimulates formation of ateroma and also from epidemiologic studies. Dietary recommendations at present are : (ⅰ) 30 and 10 cal % as upper limit of total and saturated fat intakes, respectively (ⅱ) no more than 300 mg cholesterol/day, (ⅲ) 1-2 g of n-3 fatty acid/day and (ⅳ) some increase RDA of vitamin E which is 8-10 TE.

The present studies were designed to provide new information on fatty acid profiles of various muscles and adipose tissues of fattening horses in comparison with beef cattle and pigs. In the first study, the lipids were extracted respectively from subcutaneous, intermuscular adipose tissues, longissimus dorsi and biceps femoris muscles of fattening Breton horses (n = 8) with an average body weight of 1,124 kg. In the second study, the lipids were extracted from subcutaneous, intermuscular adipose tissues and longissimus dorsi muscle of fattening horses (n = 13), Japanese Black beef cattle (n = 5), Holstein steers (n = 5) and fattening pigs (n = 5). The fatty acids in the lipid samples were determined by gas chromatography after methylation by a combined base/acid methylation method. It was found that the lipids from horse subcutaneous and intermuscular adipose tissues contained more (p<0.05) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) which were mainly composed of linoleic acid (C18:2) and linolenic acid (C18:3) than those in the muscles. The weight percent of conjugated linoleic acids (CLA cis 9, trans 11) in lipids from biceps femoris muscle was 0.22%, which was higher (p<0.05) than that from the other depots. The horse lipids were higher (p<0.05) in PUFA but lower (p<0.05) in SFA and MUFA in comparison with those of the cattle and pigs. The percentage of C18:2 or C18:3 fatty acid in the horse lipids were respectively 2-8 fold or 5-18 fold higher (p<0.05) than those of the cattle and pigs. The percentages of CLA (cis 9, trans 11) in the horse lipids (0.14-0.16%) were very close to those of the pigs (0.18-0.19%) but much lower (p<0.05) than those of the Japanese Black beef cattle (0.55-0.94%) and Holstein steers (0.46-0.71%). The results indicated that the fatty acid profiles of lipids from different muscle and adipose tissues of fattening horses differed significantly. In comparison with that of the beef cattle and pigs, the horse lipids contained more C18:2 and C18:3 but less CLA.

The effects of two cooking methods (grilling and boiling) on fat content, fatty acid composition, vitamin A, and vitamin E levels of chicken (breast, wing, thigh, and leg) were investigated. Cooking loss was in the range of 19.09~41.17%, and grilled chicken showed higher cooking loss than boiled chicken in all parts except the thigh. All treatments enhanced fat content except boiled chicken breast. Fatty acid contents of chicken significantly increased or decreased after heat treatments (P<0.05). Grilled wing showed the highest levels of saturated (SFA) and unsaturated fatty acids (UFA), and the highest UFA/SFA ratio was detected in boiled thigh. The highest content of trans fatty acids was detected in boiled wing (137.67 mg/100 g), although no significant difference with grilled wing (P>0.05), and trans fatty acids in breast was not detected. The content of vitamin A tended to decrease with heating in all chicken parts, whereas the content of vitamin E varied depending on the part and cooking method. In other words, vitamin E content of wing decreased after cooking, whereas contents of thigh and leg significantly increased after cooking (P<0.05). These results are helpful for choosing the best cooking method according to the part of the chicken for proper consumption of fats and vitamins.

This study was designed to determine total trans fatty acids (tFAs) content of processed foods commonly consumed in the Korean diet and to prepare the database for the estimation of tFAs intake in Koreans. Total fat and tFAs content was determined by Soxhlet extraction method and attenuated total reflection infrared spectroscopy (ATR-IR), respectively. The tFAs positional isomers were analyzed using GC/MS spectrometer. In margarines, the content of tFAs ranged from 8.27% to 28.53%. Shortenings contained higher levels of tFAs (1.98~11.33%) than lards (1.83~1.96%). The content of tFAs in grilled confectioneries was wide (7.37~26.54%). Instant popcorns contained the highest amount of tFAs. Fried chickens had 0.44 to 14.85% of tFAs and french fries had 5.18 to 27.01% of tFAs. In fried snacks (crispy) and chocolates, tFAs were not detected. The amount of tFAs per serving size was the highest in instant popcorn, followed by french fries, fried snack (tortilla), doughnuts, and grilled confectioneries. TFAs isomer of margarines was mostly C18:1${\Delta}$9t. In shortenings and lards, the most abundant positional isomer of tFAs was C18:1${\Delta}$9t and C18:2${\Delta}$9t ${\Delta}$12t. Correlation coefficient of tFAs content between IR and GC/MS method was $r^2$=0.91.

The aim of this study was to provide nutrition information to consumers by analyzing crude fat, saturated and trans fatty acids in commercial retort foods (n=70). The following sauce products of curries (n=21) and black-bean-sauces (n=16), other sauces (n=17) and instant cooking foods (n=16) were collected. Crude fat contents were quantified with the Rose-Gottlieb method using acid digestion. While saturated and trans fatty acids were examined by gas chromatography with a flame ionization detector (FID). Crude fat, saturated and trans fatty acid content ranges were $0.47{\pm}0.42{\sim}12.80{\pm}0.07g/100g$, $0.24{\pm}0.02{\sim}17.41{\pm}0.41g/100g$, $0.00{\pm}0.00{\sim}0.46{\pm}0.05g/100g$, respectively. Maximum recovery of analysis values was crude fat (119.7%), saturated fat (119%) and trans fatty acid (90%) compared the actual amounts based on the reference value indicated on the nutrition label. The analyzed samples were found to be compliant with nutrition label standard, because the contents of crude fat, saturated fatty acid, trans fatty acid were less than 120% of the reference value indicated on the nutrition label in retort foods. Therefore, the nutrition information on retort foods available to consumers was found to be trustworthy.

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of linseed oil or whole linseed supplementation on performance and milk fatty acid composition of lactating dairy cows. Thirty six Holstein Friesian crossbred lactating dairy cows were blocked by milking days first and then stratified random balanced for milk yields and body weight into three groups of 12 cows each. The treatments consisted of basal ration (53:47; forage:concentrate ratio, on a dry matter [DM] basis, respectively) supplemented with 300 g/d of palm oil as a positive control diet (PO), or supplemented with 300 g/d of linseed oil (LSO), or supplemented with 688 g/d of top-dressed whole linseed (WLS). All cows were received ad libitum grass silage and individually fed according to the treatments. The experiment lasted for 10 weeks including the first 2 weeks as the adjustment period, followed by 8 weeks of measurement period. The results showed that LSO and WLS supplementation had no effects on total dry matter intake, milk yield, milk composition, and live weight change; however, the animals fed WLS had higher crude protein (CP) intake than those fed PO and LSO (p<0.05). To compare with the control diet, dairy cow's diets supplemented with LSO and WLS significantly increased milk concentrations of cis-9,trans-11-conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) (p<0.05) and n-3 fatty acids (FA) (p<0.01), particularly, cis-9,12,15-C18:3, C20:5n-3 and C22:6n-3. Supplementing LSO and WLS induced a reduction of medium chain FA, especially, C12:0-C16:0 FA (p<0.05) while increasing the concentration of milk unsaturated fatty acids (UFA) (p<0.05). Milk FA proportions of n-3 FA remarkably increased whereas the ratio of n-6 to n-3 decreased in the cows supplemented with WLS as compared with those fed the control diet and LSO (p<0.01). In conclusion, supplementing dairy cows' diet based on grass silage with WLS had no effect on milk yield and milk composition; however, trans-9-C18:1, cis-9,trans-11-CLA, n-3 FA and UFA were increased while saturated FA were decreased by WLS supplementation. Therefore, it is recommended that the addition 300 g/d of oil from whole linseed should be used to lactating dairy cows' diets.

Dynamic behaviors of saturated-fatty acids $C_{16}$, $C_{18}$, $C_{20}$ and 8A5H with azobenzene were measured by displacement current method when the molecules are stimulated by pressure light and heat. When a barrier was compressed I-A, $\pi$-A isotherms of $C_{16}$, $C_{18}$, and $C_{20}$ were similar to each other but the displacement current of $C_{20}$ which has a long alkyl chain was relatively low. 8A5H showed the form of double liquid films and had a reversible reaction when a barrier was compressed and then expanded. When the molecules of 8A5H were stimulated by 365[nm] light the positive currents which were generated by the structural changes from trans to cis were measured. But the negative currents of the structural changes from cis to trans by 450[nm] light were too weak to detect. When the temperature of the water subphase was increased the surface pressures of the monolayers were increased early because of the thermal activations of the molecules and the double liquid films of 8A5H were disappeared above 40[$^{\circ}C$]EX>].

This study investigated changes in the quality properties of deep frying oil and fried chickens according to frying number. Acid values of frying oil and fried chicken after frying 110 chickens were 2.27 and 1.90, respectively. The peroxide values of frying oil did not increase uniformly as frying number increased. Conjugated dienoic acid value of frying oil and fried chicken after frying 110 chickens were 0.70 and 0.44, respectively. Regarding the fatty acid composition after frying 110 chickens, linoleic and linolenic acids decreased, whereas palmitic, stearic, and oleic acids increased. Contents of trans fatty acids in frying oil and fried chicken after frying 110 chickens were 0.75% and 0.45%, respectively. Contents of benzo [a] pyrene in frying oil and fried chicken after frying 110 chickens were 2.20 and 2.19 ${\mu}g/kg$, respectively. The quality properties of frying oil and fried chickens significantly decreased after frying 60 chickens.

Different fat extraction methods such as the Rose-Gottlieb, Folch, and hydrolytic methods were compared in terms of their fatty acid contents of milk powder. Contents of total saturated fatty acids by the Rose-Gottlieb, Folch, and hydrolytic methods were 8.578, 8.302, and 8.711 g/100 g milk powder while contents of total unsaturated fatty acids by the Rose-Gottlieb, Folch, and hydrolytic methods were 11.513, 11.143, and 11.669 g/100 g milk powder, respectively. These results suggest that the hydrolytic method has a similar fatty acid composition as the well-known Rose-Gottlieb method. In uncooked chicken, total fatty acid contents of breast, gamb, and wing were 6.302, 8.313, and 11.346 g/100 g, respectively. Among different cooking methods, frying increased content of total trans fatty acids up to 0.034 (breast), 0.112 (gamb), and 0.123 g/100 g (wing).

The objective of this study was to examine the effect of supplementation of high linoleic ($C_{18:2}$) oil or high linolenic ($C_{18:3}$) oil to the diet on milking performance and content of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers in goat milk fat. Forty five dairy goats (Sumnen, 25 d post-partum, $62.5{\pm}1.2kg$) were randomly assigned to three treatment groups with each group of 15 dairy goats. The goats were fed a basal diet (CON) consisting 1.2 kg concentrate and 1.2 kg chopped hay (0.6 chopped alfalfa and 0.6 kg hay) daily with 4% soybean oil (SO) or 4% linseed oil (LO). Daily feed intake was not influenced (p>0.05) but daily milk yield (p<0.001) and milk fat yield (p<0.001) were significantly increased by supplementation of oils. Supplementation of oils decreased the short chain fatty acid, medium-chain fatty acid and saturated fatty acid in goat milk fat while increased trans vaccenic acid (trans-11-$C_{18:1}$, TVA), oleic acid ($C_{18:1}$), $C_{18:2}$, $C_{18:3}$, cis-9, trans-11-CLA (c9, t11-CLA), trans-10, cis- 12-conjugated linoleic acid (t10, c12-CLA), unsaturated fatty acids, mono unsaturated fatty acid and long-chain fatty acid in goat milk fat (p<0.001). Especially, c9, t11-CLA, t10, c12-CLA and ${\omega}-3$ fatty acid ($C_{18:3\;n-3}$) in milk fat were highest when goat fed LO diet. Based on the result, it is suggested that supplementation of linseed oil should be an effective method to increase CLA isomers and ${\omega}-3$ fatty acid in goat milk fat without negative effect on lactating performance.
