The Development of Individual Human Fatty Acid Reference Ranges The Development of Individual Human Fatty Acid Reference Ranges by Cody A. C. Lust A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Human Health and Nutritional Sciences Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Cody Lust, September, 2020 ABSTRACT THE DEVELOPMENT OF INDIVIDUAL FATTY ACID REFERENCE RANGES Cody A.C. Lust Advisor(s): University of Guelph, 2020 Dr. David WL Ma Consumption of dietary fatty acids (FA) are essential for the development and Maintenance of human health. Currently, individual FA reference ranges have yet to be established in the field of dietary lipid research. Clinical reference ranges for lipids, such as cholesterol, are routinely utilized in clinical practices for efficient and precise assessMents. However, a number of factors such as dietary consumption, age, sex, and metabolisM have been shown to modify FA status. In this study, the effect of aging on FA status in Australians, and the correlation between FA concentrations and lipid biomarkers in Singaporean adults was exaMined. FA status was modestly correlated to aging across multiple decades and lipid biomarkers strongly correlated to FA concentrations. Continuing to profile multiple cohorts in different countries, using consistent methodology, will allow for FA cut-off values to be developed (i.e. sufficiency vs. deficiency) and provide target values for reducing chronic disease risk. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Only two years ago I was working as a bartender in Vancouver B.C., and after receiving an offer in late-August to pursue a master’s degree, decided to drop everything on ten days’ notice and move to Guelph. I will forever owe my gratitude to my advisor Dr. David Ma for plucking me from obscurity and providing me every opportunity to grow as a researcher and open doors for me which I thought had closed for good. I look forward to the next step in our journey as I begin my PhD and cannot thank you enough for your continued support and patience as I wind my way through the crazy world of academia. To the other member of my committee, Dr. Lindsay Robinson, thank you for being so supportive from the moment I arrived in Guelph and providing valuable insight on not only this project but, my first publication earlier this year. To all the members of the Ma Lab and friends in HHNS, thank you for welcoming me with open arms and showing me the ropes. Working alongside so many intelligent, driven individuals with such a diverse scope of interests pushes me to work harder myself each day. Most importantly, I would still be in the GC room processing samples for this project if it wasn’t for Lyn Hilyer. You are the glue which keeps our lab together, and I cannot thank you enough for having the answer to every question even before I ask. To my family and friends back home on the west coast, there is only so much more I can say here which I haven’t told you before. Each one of you has taught me something that I keep with me each day so, even though we are apart, you are always close by. Finally, Georgia, what is left to say after surviving undergrad, some awkward gap years, our master’s degree, a soon to be PhD, and a global pandemic locked-up together for 6 months. You have made me a kinder, smarter, and all-around better person – I would not have wanted anyone else by my side during this process. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract

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.

Abstract: Moringa oleifera is a robust and fast-growing tree considered as one of the most beneficial trees worldwide since almost all parts of it are used as food, medicine, and for industrial purposes. This study aimed to investigate the physicochemical properties and fatty acid composition of M. oleifera seed oil. The oil was extracted by Soxhlet using n-hexane; the physicochemical properties of the seed oil were assessed by standard and established methods, as well, the fatty acid composition of the seed oil was determined by GC-MS. The golden yellow oil with characteristic odor obtained from the seeds had the following physicochemical properties: yield, 42.87%; freezing point, 0 °C; melting point, 21 °C; boiling point, 225 °C; refractive index (25 °C), 1.447; iodine value, 96.6 g/100g of oil; peroxide value, 7.6 meq.O2/kg of oil; free fatty acids, 0.07%; acid value, 1.4 mg of KOH/g of oil; saponification value, 185.2 mg KOH/g of oil; unsaponifiable matter, 3.2; moisture and volatile value, 4.91 (wt.%); density, 0.900 g/cm3; viscosity, 60.99 mm2/s; specific gravity, 0.907.

Received: 2 August 2019; Accepted: 24 August 2019; Published: 28 August 2019 Abstract: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with increased total plasma free fatty acid (FFA) concentrations and an elevated risk of cardiovascular disease. The exact mechanisms by which the plasma FFA profile of subjects with T2DM changes is unclear, but it is thought that dietary fats and changes to lipid metabolism are likely to contribute. Therefore, establishing the changes in concentrations of specific FFAs in an individual’s plasma is important. Each type of FFA has different effects on physiological processes, including the regulation of lipolysis and lipogenesis in adipose tissue, inflammation, endocrine signalling and the composition and properties of cellular membranes. Alterations in such processes due to altered plasma FFA concentrations/profiles can potentially result in the development of insulin resistance and coagulatory defects. Finally, fibrates and statins, lipid-regulating drugs prescribed to subjects with T2DM, are also thought to exert part of their beneficial effects by impacting on plasma FFA concentrations. Thus, it is also interesting to consider their effects on the concentration of FFAs in plasma.
