Fat Content of American Kestrels(Falco sparverius) and Sharp-Shinned Hawks (Accipiter striatus) Estimated by Total Body Electrical ConductivityHarden, Shari M. 01 May 1993 (has links)
Total body electrical conductivity (TOBEC) is a noninvasive method for the estimation of lean mass in live subjects. Lipid content can be calculated from the body mass measured and the lean mass estimated from TOBEC. I used live American Kestrels (Falco sparverius) to study the accuracy of this method. TOBEC measurements were compared to actual body content determined by Soxhlet fat extraction using petroleum ether as the solvent. TOBEC estimated 73.7% of the variation in lean mass in a sample of 21 kestrels. The use of restraining devices (Vetrap and cardboard cylinders) altered the TOBEC measurement but only by an average of 1.92% and 0.83%, respectively. TOBEC estimated 83.8% of the variation in lean mass for 21 kestrel carcasses warmed to 39.8oC. No significant difference was found between the slope or elevation of the calibration lines developed using live or dead kestrels. A significant difference was found between measurements taken at two different positions. Body temperature altered the TOBEC measurements by an average of 1.54% (SE = 0.55) for each 10C change over a temperature range of 7.00C (37.3-44.4). The calibration line developed for kestrels was used to estimate lean mass and compute fat mass of migrating kestrels, Sharp-shinned Hawks (Accipiter striatus) and Merlins (Fa/co co/umbarius). The average percent fat mass of kestrels trapped during migration at Cape May, New Jersey, was 6.01 % (SE = 1.92, n = 1 2) for males and 8.51 % (SE = 2.00, n = 13) for females. The difference in lean mass between male and female, and between early, mid-season, and late migrating Sharp-shinned Hawks differed significantly during migration. The fat mass of Sharp-shinned Hawks averaged 5.55% (SE = 0.94, n = 53) for males and 10.92% (SE = 0.80, n = 87) for females. Male Merlins had an average fat mass of 18.05% (SE = 3.35, n = 7) and females averaged 14.19% (SE = 3.15, n = 8).

Fat utilization by chickens of different genetic backgroundsKatongole, Joseph Bifaki Ddungu January 1978 (has links)
The objectives of this research were (1) to study the relative
ability of genetically different types of domestic chickens
to digest and absorb fat of different types, and (2) to relate
fat absorbability coefficients to dietary apparent M. E. values obtained with genetically different types of chickens feeding on diets containing the different types of fat, (3) to search for a possible cause of poultry genetic difference in fat absorbability by examining some of the factors most likely to influence fat digestion and absorption in the genetically different types of chickens.
Using New Hampshire, White Leghorn and broiler-type birds, it was found that until 6 weeks of age the New Hampshires were significantly (P≤0.05) superior to the others in their ability to utilize animal tallow. Differences among birds in the absorbability
of corn oil were small.
Differences in dietary M.E. estimates were closely
associated with differences in fat absorbability values and
on a 12% tallow diet, the R² values computed on a within age
between breeds basis, were 0.67, 0.36 and 0.022 at 3, 5,
and 9 weeks of age respectively. This general decline in R² values was a reflection of the narrowing of the range of fat absorbability differences among different types of birds as they grew older. The overall conclusion based on these results, is that breed and/or age differences in M.E. estimates are to a large extent attributable to breed and/or age differences in the absorbability of dietary lipid materials. The search for potential causes of the observed breed differences
in fat absorbability was therefore the main theme of the subsequent
experiments.
A study of the feed passage time in birds of different genetic backgrounds failed to provide any conclusive evidence on whether or not breed differences in ingesta transit time are in measureable terms responsible for fat absorbability differences. It was found, however, that with diets containing
12% of animal tallow or corn oil, feed passage time was significantly longer regardless of the type of birds.
On the basis of the results of an experiment in which in vitro pancreatic lipase activity was measured, the New Hampshires ranked first followed by Broilers and White Leghorns in that order. However, the magnitude of differences among them was small. Supplementation of the 12% tallow diet with the bile salt, sodium taurocholate, improved fat utilization significantly
by the broiler-type and White Leghorn chicks to the extent
of 8.6% and 7.2% respectively. The improvement in fat absorbability
was associated with a significant reduction in the amount of fecal soap fatty cacids. The effect of the sodium taurocholate suggested that in the Broilers and White Leghorn chicks, the supply of bile salts was below the critical micellar concentration required for efficient tallow fat absorption.
Results from a general study on intestinal fatty acid binding
protein (FABP) revealed that a fatty acid binding protein in the same molecular weight range as that one demonstrated in the rat, exists in the intestinal mucosa of the adult chickens and in the mesenteric intestine of day-old chicks prior to the ingestion of any feed. / Land and Food Systems, Faculty of / Graduate

Alger som mat : - Litteraturstudie och sammanställning av makroalgers näringsinnehåll. / Algae as food : - Literature study and compilation of macroalgae's nutritional valuesAndersson, Katja, Helin, Alva January 2018 (has links)
Syftet med rapporten är att sammanställa samt jämföra olika ätbara makroalgarter från det Rhodophyta, Phaeophyta och Chlorophyta divisionerna utifrån dess näringsinnehåll. Detta för att analysera algernas utvecklade potential som livsmedel och som substitut till animaliska proteinkällor. För att uppnå syftet kommer algarternas näringsinnehåll att sammanställas utifrån protein-, kolhydrat- och fettinnehåll genom datainsamling av tidigare forskning. Rapporten utgörs av en litteraturstudie där insamling av data sker via databasen Google Scholar och enbart originalartiklar väljs ut. Algernas näringsvärde jämförs sedan med värden för sju referensprodukter som används som proteinkällor på livsmedelsmarknaden idag. Rapporten visar att alger hos divisionen Rhodophyta har det högsta proteininnehållet, men att även alger hos övriga divisioner innehåller mer protein än ett flertal av referensprodukterna. De granskade algarterna har generellt sett goda förutsättningar att substituera många av referenslivsmedlen och därmed den näringsinnehållsmässiga potentialen för utvecklad användning inom livsmedelsindustrin. / The aim of the report is to compile and compare different edible macroalgaes from the Rhodophyta, Phaeophyta and Chlorophyta divisions by their nutritional content. This in order to analyze if the algaes have potential for expanded use on the food market and as a substitute for animal protein sources. To achieve the aim, the nutritional content of the algaes will be compiled on the basis of protein, carbohydrate and fat content through a data collection of previous research. This bachelor thesis is a study of literature, where only journal articles and scientific reports are used. The algaes nutritional values are then compared to values for seven reference products, that are used as protein sources on the food market today. The report shows that the algal species from the Rhodophyta division have the highest protein content, and that algae from the other divisions show protein contents higher than most of the reference values. The reviewed algaes generally have good qualifications to substitute many of the reference products and therefore, as regards the nutritional content, big potential for expanded use within the food industry.

Genome-wide association studies reveal genomic regions and positional candidate genes for fat deposition in chickens / Estudos de associação genômica ampla revelam regiões genômicas e genes candidatos posicionais para deposição de gordura em galinhasMoreira, Gabriel Costa Monteiro 09 March 2018 (has links)
Excess of fat deposition is a negative factor for poultry production, which affects feed efficiency and consequently the costs of meat production. The incorporation of genomic tools in poultry breeding programs may help to accelerate the selection for increased production efficiency. In this context, we genotyped approximately 2,000 42 days-old chickens from two different populations (Brazilian F2 Chicken Resource population and TT broiler Reference Population) using a high-density SNP array (600K, Affymetrix) to estimate genomic heritability of fatness-related traits, to identify genomic regions and positional candidate genes (PCGs) associated with these traits. We performed genome-wide association (GWAS) analysis using GenSel software (Bayesian approach) to identify 1 Mb genomic windows associated with abdominal fat, skin and carcass fat content traits. The search for PCGs were made within each genomic windows associated considering their Gene Ontology (GO) terms and also the literature information. We also integrated into this study NGS-SNPs data from both populations and selection signature regions identified in Brazilian F2 Chicken Resource population to refine the list of PCGs. The genomic heritability values for fatness-related traits were from moderate to high (greater than 0.30). We identified quantitative trait loci (QTL) for abdominal fat, skin and carcass fat content traits harboring several PCGs involved in biological processes of fat deposition. We identified several NGS-SNPs annotated in potential functional regions in our PCGs and some of those were predicted as deleterious and high impact mutations. Besides that, some genes overlapped with selection signature regions in Brazilian F2 Chicken Resource population. Important candidate genes for fat deposition were identified, providing new insights to achieve a better understanding of the genetic control of fat deposition in chickens. / O excesso de deposição de gordura é um fator negativo para a produção de aves, o que afeta a eficiência alimentar e consequentemente os custos da produção de carne. A incorporação das ferramentas genômicas em programas de melhoramento de aves pode ajudar a acelerar a seleção para aumentar a eficiência da produção. Neste contexto, genotipamos cerca de 2.000 aves de 42 dias de duas populações diferentes (população F2 experimental brasileira e população de corte referência TT) usando um chip de SNPs de alta densidade (600K, Affymetrix) para estimar a herdabilidade genômica de características relacionadas à deposição de gordura, para identificar regiões genômicas e genes candidatos posicionais (PCGs) associados a essas características. Realizamos análises de associação genômica ampla (GWAS) usando o programa GenSel (abordagem Bayesiana) para identificar janelas genômicas de 1 Mb associadas com características de gordura abdominal, pele e conteúdo de gordura na carcaça. A busca por PCGs foi feita dentro de cada janela genômica associada, considerando os Gene Ontology (GO) terms e também a informação da literatura. Integramos neste estudo NGS-SNPs identificados em animais parentais de ambas as populações, e além disso, regiões de assinaturas de seleção identificadas na população F2 experimental brasileira para refinar a lista de PCGs. Os valores de herdabilidade genômica para as características relacionadas à gordura foram de moderado a alto (maior que 0,30). Identificamos QTL para características de gordura abdominal, pele e conteúdo de gordura na carcaça contendo PCGs envolvidos em processos biológicos de deposição de gordura. Identificamos vários NGS-SNPs anotados em regiões potencialmente funcionais em nossos PCGs e alguns desses foram preditos como mutações deletérias e de alto impacto. Além disso, alguns genes se sobrepuseram com regiões de assinatura de seleção na população F2 experimental brasileira. Foram identificados importantes genes candidatos para a deposição de gordura, fornecendo novos insights para alcançar uma melhor compreensão do controle genético da deposição de gordura em frangos.

Funcionalidade de gorduras na formulação de creme de amendoim / Functionality of fats in the formulation of peanut cream.Hares Junior, Sylvio Jorge 18 October 2013 (has links)
O creme de amendoim é um produto popular no Brasil pelo seu excelente sabor e características nutricionais. No entanto, apesar de seu consumo consagrado e de seguir padrões rigidamente estabelecidos de processos e qualidade, pode ocorrer alteração na consistência e diminuição de características de espalhamento, diminuindo a qualidade sensorial. Como forma de procurar controlar estes problemas, são normalmente usados ingredientes gordurosos como promotores de melhoria de estabilidade e consistência, como óleo de palma, estearina de palma, oleína de palma, óleos hidrogenados, monoacilgliceróis e diacilgliceróis. O projeto teve como objetivo a formulação de cremes de amendoim com óleo de amendoim, óleo de palma e estearina de palma em várias proporções, visando a obtenção de produtos mais estáveis e consistentes, que sejam equivalentes aos produtos comerciais de largo consumo por consumidores no mercado nacional. Foram realizadas as seguintes análises nas gorduras e suas misturas: composição em ácidos graxos e triacilgliceróis, índices de iodo e de peróxido, acidez, consistência, conteúdo de gordura sólida e análise térmica de cristalização e fusão. Os ácidos graxos saturados foram predominantes na estearina e óleo de palma, principalmente o ácido palmítico, enquanto o óleo de amendoim tem como principal constituinte o ácido oleico. À medida que aumenta a proporção de óleo de amendoim nas misturas, aumentam a quantidade de ácidos graxos insaturados e o índice de iodo e diminui a quantidade de ácidos graxos saturados. Os pontos de fusão , entalpia total de fusão, consistência e conteúdo de gordura sólida aumentaram nas misturas que apresentavam maior proporção de estearina e óleo de palma, em função do aumento no teor de triacilgliceróis trissaturados. Para a consistência (mistura de gorduras e cremes formulados), o conteúdo de gordura sólida, a entalpia total de cristalização e fusão e o ponto de fusão das misturas de gorduras foi aplicado um modelo de regressão múltipla, procurando evidenciar a influência das gorduras nas propriedades do produto final. As interações entre as gorduras foram do tipo eutético, caracterizando incompatibilidade no estado sólido. O modelo de regressão múltipla foi considerado preditivo para a consistência dos cremes, o conteúdo de gordura sólida e para as os resultados da análise térmica. Os resultados mostraram que as misturas de maior potencial para a consistência ideal de cremes espalháveis (200-800 gf/cm2) na faixa da temperatura de uso, ou seja, desde temperatura de conservação em geladeira até temperatura de mesa (15 - 25°C), foram as seguintes: 50% de óleo de palma e 50% de estearina de palma; 66,6% de óleo de palma, 16,7% de óleo de amendoim e 16,7% de estearina de palma; 16,7% de óleo de palma, 16,7% de óleo de amendoim e 66,6% de estearina de palma. Portanto, estas amostras apresentavam larga faixa de presença de óleo de palma e/ou estearina de palma na formulação. Os resultados obtidos mostram que a simples mistura é uma forma eficaz para modificar as propriedades físicas e químicas de estearina de palma, óleo de amendoim e óleo de palma. As misturas permitiram a obtenção de gorduras com vários graus de consistência ,de conteúdo de gordura sólida e ponto de fusão, possibilitando a obtenção de cremes de amendoim formulados a partir delas, que eram mais estáveis e firmes, porém plásticos e consistentes o suficiente para garantir efetiva espalhabilidade e correspondência ao padrão observado nas melhores marcas de cremes de amendoim do mercado. / The peanut cream is a popular product in Brazil for its excellent flavor and nutritional characteristics. However, despite its huge consumption and to follow strict patterns of quality and processes, some alterations may occur in consistency that can reduce spread characteristics, lowering the sensorial quality. As a way to try to control these problems, fatty ingredients are typically used as promoters to improve stability and consistency, as palm oil, palm stearin, palm olein, hydrogenated oils, monoacylglycerols and diacylglycerols. The project aimed to formulate creams with peanut oil, palm oil and palm stearin in various proportions in order to obtain a more stable and consistent product, equivalent to the best commercial creams widely consumed in the brazilian market. The following analyzes were performed on fats and their blends: fatty acids and triacylglycerols composition, iodine and peroxide values, acidity, consistency, solid fat content and thermal analysis of melting and crystallization. Saturated fatty acids have been prevalent in palm stearin and palm oil, particularly palmitic acid, while peanut oil has at its main constituent the oleic acid. As peanut oil increases in the blends, increases the amount of unsaturated fatty acids and the iodine value and reduces the amount of saturated fatty acids. Fat blends with a high proportion of saturated fatty acids (palm stearin and palm oil), showed higher melting points, total enthalpy of melting, consistency and solid fat content, due to the increase of the content of trisatured triacylglycerols. For the consistency (fats blends and formulated creams), solid fat content, total enthalpy of melting and crystallization and melting point of the fat blends, a multiple regression model was applied in order to show how fats influence the properties of the final product. Interactions between fats were eutectic, showing incompatibility in the solid state. The multiple regression model was considered predictive for the consistency of the cream, solid fat content and results of the thermal analysis. The results showed that the mixtures of higher potential for optimal consistency of spreadable cream (200 to 800 gf/cm2) in temperature range from the storage at a refrigerator temperature up to the ambient temperature (10 - 25 °C) were: 50% palm oil and 50% palm stearin, 66.6% palm oil, 16.7% peanut oil and 16.7% palm stearin; 16.7 % palm oil, 16.7% peanut oil and 66.6% palm stearin. Therefore, these samples had a broad range presence of palm oil and / or palm stearin in the formulation. The results obtained showed that a simple mixture is an effective way to modify physical and chemical properties of palm stearin, peanut oil and palm oil. The mixtures enabled to obtain fats with various degrees of consistency, solid fat content and melting point parameters, making it possible to obtain peanut creams made from them which were more stable and firm but plastic and consistent enough to ensure effective spreadability and correspondence to the pattern observed in the best brands of peanut creams of the brazillian market.
