The objectives of this study were to characterize the Accepted 3 September 2014 genetic polymorphism of bovine LIPE gene and to evaluate the possible Available online 16 October 2014 association between three SNPs in the coding regions of this gene with the fatty acid composition of meat in a cattle population.

Our results may suggest a possible association of SNP1 with contents of oleic acid and total monounsaturated fatty acids (p b 0.01), and SNP2 and SNP3 with Heneicosylic acid content (p b 0.01), may be helpful to improve the quality of meat and improve health. -

The Clinical Significance of the Organic Acids Test
The Clinical Significance of the Organic Acids Test The Organic Acids Test (OAT) provides an accurate metabolic snapshot of what is going on in the body. Besides offering the most complete and accurate evaluation of intestinal yeast and bacteria, it also provides information on important neurotransmitters, nutritional markers, glutathione status, oxalate metabolism, and much more. The test includes 76 urinary metabolite markers that can be very useful for discovering underlying causes of chronic illness. Patients and physicians report that treating yeast and bacterial abnormalities reduces fatigue, increases alertness and energy, improves sleep, normalizes bowel function, and reduces hyperactivity and abdominal pain. The OAT Assists in Evaluating: ■ Krebs Cycle Abnormalities ■ Neurotransmitter Levels ■ Nutritional Deficiencies ■ Antioxidant Deficiencies ■ Yeast and Clostridia Overgrowth ■ Fatty Acid Metabolism ■ Oxalate Levels ■ And More! The OAT Pairs Well with the Following Tests: ■ GPL-TOX: Toxic Non-Metal Chemical Profile ■ IgG Food Allergy + Candida ■ MycoTOX Profile ■ Phospholipase A2 Activity Test Learn how to better integrate the OAT into your practice, along with our other top tests by attending one of our GPL Academy Practitioner Workshops! Visit www.GPLWorkshops.com for workshop dates and locations. The following pages list the 76 metabolite markers of the Organic Acids Test. Included is the name of the metabolic marker, its clinical significance, and usual initial treatment. INTESTINAL MICROBIAL OVERGROWTH Yeast and Fungal Markers Elevated citramalic acid is produced mainly by Saccharomyces species or Propionibacteria Citramalic Acid overgrowth. High-potency, multi-strain probiotics may help rebalance GI flora. A metabolite produced by Aspergillus and possibly other fungal species in the GI tract. 5-Hydroxy-methyl- Prescription or natural antifungals, along with high-potency, multi-strain probiotics, furoic Acid may reduce overgrowth levels. -
3-Aroyl Pyroglutamic Acid Amides †
Proceeding Paper Synthesis of (2S,3S)-3-Aroyl Pyroglutamic Acid Amides † Lucia Pincekova * and Dusan Berkes * Department of Organic Chemistry, Slovak Technical University, Radlinského 9, SK-812 37 Bratislava, Slovakia * Correspondence: [email protected] (L.P.); [email protected] (D.B.) † Presented at the 24th International Electronic Conference on Synthetic Organic Chemistry, 15 November–15 December 2020; Available online: https://ecsoc-24.sciforum.net/. Abstract: A new methodology for the asymmetric synthesis of enantiomerically enriched 3-aroyl pyroglutamic acid derivatives has been developed through effective 5-exo-tet cyclization of N-chlo- roacetyl aroylalanines. The three-step sequence starts with the synthesis of N-substituted (S,S)-2- amino-4-aryl-4-oxobutanoic acids via highly diastereoselective tandem aza-Michael addition and crystallization-induced diastereomer transformation (CIDT). Their N-chloroacetylation followed by base-catalyzed cyclization and ultimate acid-catalyzed removal of chiral auxiliary without loss of stereochemical integrity furnishes the target substituted pyroglutamic acids. Finally, several series of their benzyl amides were prepared as 3-aroyl analogs of known P2X7 antagonists. Keywords: pyroglutamic acid; P2X7 receptors; aza-Michael addition; CIDT; N-debenzylation 1.

Objectives To understand what is lipid Why they are important How they occur in nature 2. Concept Map LIPIDS Fatty Acids Glycerol 3. Description 3.1 Prologue to Lipids In 1943, the term lipid was first used by BLOOR, a German biochemist. Lipids are heterogeneous group of compounds present in plants and animal tissues related either actually or potentially to the fatty acids. They are amphipathic molecules, hydrophobic in nature originated utterly or in part by thioesters (carbanion-based condensations of fatty acids and/or polyketides etc) or by isoprene units (carbocation-based condensations of prenols, sterols, etc). Lipids have the universal property of being: i. Quite insoluble in water (polar solvent) ii. Soluble in benzene, chloroform, ether (non-polar solvent) 3 METABOLISM OF LIPIDS Biochemistry Prologue to Lipids Thus, lipids include oils, fats, waxes, steroids, vitamins (A, D, E and K) and related compounds, such as phospholipids, triglycerides, diglycerides, monoglycerides and others, which are allied more by their physical properties than by their chemical assests. -

ELSD responses of different lipids were evaluated to elucidate the possibilities and challenges associated with quantification by means of HPLC-ELSD. Not only the number and type of polar functional groups but also the chain length and degree of unsaturation of (free or esterified) fatty acids (FAs) had a significant effect on ELSD responses. Tripalmitin and trilinolein yielded notably different ELSD responses, even if their constituting free FAs produced identical responses. How FA structure impacts ELSD responses of free FAs is thus not predictive for those of triacylglycerols and presumably other lipids containing esterified FAs. Because ELSD responses of lipids depend on the identity of the (esterified) FA(s) which they contain, fully accurate lipid quantification with HPLC-ELSD is challenging and time-consuming. Nonetheless, HPLC-ELSD is a good and fast technique to semi-quantitatively compare the levels of different lipid classes Citation: Melis, S.; Foubert, I.; between samples of comparable FA composition. -
