Higher levels of linoleic acid in the blood are directly linked to reduced markers of inflammation and improved glucose and insulin levels, suggesting a lower risk for both heart disease and type ...

They found that higher levels of linoleic acid in plasma—indicative of dietary intake—were consistently associated with lower levels of risk factors for cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes.

A new study by Toho University has revealed that gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), a fatty acid commonly found in plant oils such ...

Figure 1. Chemical Structures of Various Fatty Acids This review provides an overview of the link between TFA and CVD risk, and highlights recent controversy about conjugated linoleic acid (CLA).

Effects of dietary conjugated linoleic acids (CLAs) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on the fatty acid composition of different egg compartments after storage were studied. Four dietary treatments ...

The adipose fatty acid profile, which closely reflects dietary intake, was measured in 35 men with chronic duodenal ulcer and 35 matched control men. The mean percentage of linoleic acid in adipose ...

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a powerful and highly versatile imaging technique that has had a tremendous impact in both science and medicine. Unfortunately, MRI data acquisition is also time ...

In this paper, we proposed an all-fiber waveguide coupled surface Plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor which was designed and fabricated with Au-ZnO-Au sandwich multi-layer structure. Based on the transfer ...

Overview The research laboratory of Louis (Jim) J. Maher III, Ph.D., studies the nucleic acids DNA and RNA. Dr. Maher's research team works to understand how the locally stiff DNA molecule is bent and ...

THERMODYNAMICS AND SEPARATION PROCESSES Phase equilibria of oleic, palmitic, stearic, linoleic and linolenic acids in supercritical CO 2 P. L. Penedo; G. L. V. Coelho *; M. F. Mendes Laboratório de ...

Lipids have fundamental roles in the structure, energetics, and signaling of cells and organisms. The recent discovery of fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFAs), lipids with potent ...
