Lipid changes in tissues of young boars fed rapeseed oil or corn oil.

Only registered users can translate articles

Fully refined rapeseed oil, Brassica campestris var. Arlo plus Echo, and corn oil were fed at 20% by weight of a basal diet to young Yorkshire boars. A serial slaughter technique was employed whereby 3 boars from each dietary treatment were killed at 0,1,2,3,4 and 8 weeks of the experiment. The

An increase in cholesterol ester content of the rat aorta by a high fat-high erucic acid diet.

Only registered users can translate articles

Rats of weaning age were feed for a period of 1 or 3 weeks either a low fat diet (laboratory stock diet) or a semi-synthetic diet containing 20% by weight of either corn oil (2/3 of the total fatty acids consisted of linoleic acid) or mustard seed oil (1/3 of the total fatty acids were comprised of

Is dietary erucic acid hepatotoxic in pregnancy? An experimental study in rats and hamsters.

Only registered users can translate articles

The hypothesis that dietary erucic acid may contribute to the pathogenesis of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy has been examined in pregnant rats and hamsters after prolonged feeding of diets containing 25% rapeseed oil rich in erucic acid (40% of fatty acids) or corn oil, without erucic acid.

Erucic acid metabolism by rat heart preparations.

Only registered users can translate articles

Rat heart preparations metabolized erucic acid at much slower rates than palmitic acid. This applied for activation reaction, for the conversion of acyl-CoA to acylcarnitine, and for the utilization of acyl group for oxidation. As compared to palmityl-CoA, erucyl-CoA exhibited a lower affinity for

Erucic acid in edible fats and oils: a collaborative study on determination by open-tubular (capillary) gas-liquid chromatography.

Only registered users can translate articles

An open-tubular (capillary) column gas-liquid chromatographic method for the determination of the specific isomer of docosenoic acid known as erucic acid (cis-docos-13-enoic) in the presence of other docosenoic acid isomers present in partially hydrogenated marine oils has been evaluated

Effects of dietary saturated fat on erucic acid induced myocardial lipidosis in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed for one week diets containing 20% by weight fat/oil mixtures with different levels of erucic acid (22:1n-9) (approximately 2.5 or 9%) and total saturated fatty acids (approximately 8 or 35%). Corn oil and high erucic acid rapeseed (HEAR) oil were fed as controls.

The effects of original and randomized rapseed oils containing high or very low levels of erucic acid on cardiac lipids and myocardial lesions in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

The nutritional status of the very lowerucate, rapseed oil, Brassica napus var. 'Tower,' was compared with that of the high-erucate oil, Brassica napus var. 'Target,' as well as with corn oil. The effect of randomization on the nutritional qualities of rapeseed oil was investigated as well. The

Failure of dietary erucic acid to impair oxidative capacity or APT production of rat heart mitochondria isolated under controlled conditions.

Only registered users can translate articles

1. Male, 8-week old rats were fed Purina Rat Chow for semisynthetic diets containing 20% by weight of rapeseed oil or corn oil for 3 days. 2. The hearts from the animals fed the three diets were analyzed for total lipid, phospholipid, free fatty acids, cholesterol esters, tri-, di- and

The development of dermal lesions and alopecia in male rats fed rapeseed oil.

Only registered users can translate articles

For 8 weeks 10 male weanling Sprague-Dawley rats were fed a semisynthetic diet containing by weight either 20% corn oil or rapeseed oils containing different amounts of erucic acid (Brassica napus var. Zephyr, 0.6%; B. napus var. Oro, 1.8%; B. campestris var. Span, 4.8%; or B. campestris var. Echo

[Comparative digestive utilization and forms of fecal excretion in the rat of erucic and brassidic acids esterified in different glyceride structures].

Only registered users can translate articles

The digestibility and fecal excretion patterns of erucic (cis n-9 docosenoic) and brassidic (trans n-9 docosenoic) acids, esterified in triglycerides of different structure, were compared in the rat. Synthetic triglycerides were prepared either by mixing or interesterifying trierucin or tribrassidin

Effects of various high-fat diets on myocardial contractility and morphology in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

The effects of various high-fat diets (20% w/w) containing commercially available fats and oils (butter, corn oil, corn oil margarine, canola oil, canola oil margarine, soybean oil, soybean oil margarine, sunflower oil, sunflower oil margarine) on myocardial contractility and morphology and on

Physiopathological effects of rapeseed oil: a review.

Only registered users can translate articles

Rapeseed oil has a growth retarding effect in animals. Some investigators claim that the high content of erucic acid in rapeseed oil alone causes this effect, while others consider the low ratio saturated/monounsaturated fatty acids in rapeseed oil to be a contributory factor. Normally erucic acid

Growth, lipid metabolism and pathology of two strains of rats fed high fat diets.

Only registered users can translate articles

Studies were carried out on Sprague-Dawley (SD) and Chester Beatty (CB) rats to determine whether the difference in incidence of myocardial lesions can be related to dietary factors and parameters known to be affected in SD rats fed rapeseed oils. The two strains of young, male rats were fed diets

Dietary mustard, rape seed oils and selenium exert distinct effects on serum Se, lipids, peroxidation products and platelet aggregability.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE A degenerative cardiomyopathy (DCM) has been observed among mustard oil (MUST) users in China who eat 150 ml/week. Though the condition may be a selenium (Se) deficiency, MUST, rich in erucic acid (22:1), may bear a cardiotoxic or pro-oxidant substrate(s). The purpose of this feeding study

Histopathology of the heart from rats fed rapeseed oils.

Only registered users can translate articles

The cardiopathogenicity of oils from new, low erucic acid (EA) rapeseed, Brassica napus, cv Tower (0.88 per cent EA) and Brassica napus, cv 1788 (3.6 per cent EA) were tested on rats following 18 weeks of feeding. Oil from Brassica napus, cv Target, with 38.9 per cent EA served as a positive control
