The Impact of Sea Buckthorn Oil Fatty Acids on Human Health Marta Solà Marsiñach1* and Aleix Pellejero Cuenca2 Solà Marsiñach and Cuenca Lipids in Health and Disease (2019) 18:145 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12944-019-1065-9 REVIEW Open Access The impact of sea buckthorn oil fatty acids on human health Marta Solà Marsiñach1* and Aleix Pellejero Cuenca2 Abstract The beneficial properties of fatty acids have been undervalued for several years. In contraposition, new studies reveal that fatty acids have an essential role for human health. The aim of the study is to demonstrate the clinical applications of fatty acids present in sea buckthorn oil. The composition of fatty acids found in sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides) oil is unique for this species, presenting a vast range of health benefits for humans and therefore it is highly valued by both biomedicine and the cosmetic industry. In this way, we will see the clinical effect of monounsaturated, polyunsaturated and saturated fatty acids that constitute sea buckthorn oil and how they contribute to the correct function of the organism. Despite there being studies that support the positive effects of sea buckthorn fatty acids, they are limited. Hence, most of the results obtained in this review are from studies of isolated fatty acids instead of fatty acids extracted from sea buckthorn oil. These facts permit to demonstrate the effect of sea buckthorn fatty acids separately but we lost the possibility of detecting a synergic effect of all of them. More studies are necessary to certify the clinical application of the fatty acids present in sea buckthorn oil as well as discovering possible synergies between them.

  • Fatty Acids: Essential…Therapeutic
    Volume 3, No.2 May/June 2000 A CONCISE UPDATE OF IMPORTANT ISSUES CONCERNING NATURAL HEALTH INGREDIENTS Written and Edited By: Thomas G. Guilliams Ph.D. FATTY ACIDS: Essential...Therapeutic Few things have been as confusing to both patient and health care provider as the issue of fats and oils. Of all the essential nutrients required for optimal health, fatty acids have not only been forgotten they have been considered hazardous. Health has somehow been equated with “low-fat” or “fat-free” for so long, to suggest that fats could be essential or even therapeutic is to risk credibility. We hope to give a view of fats that is both balanced and scientific. This review will cover the basics of most fats that will be encountered in dietary or supplemental protocols. Recommendations to view essential fatty acids in a similar fashion as essential vitamins and minerals will be combined with therapeutic protocols for conditions ranging from cardiovascular disease, skin conditions, diabetes, nerve related disorders, retinal disorders and more. A complete restoration of health cannot be accomplished until there is a restoration of fatty acid nutritional information among health care professionals and their patients. Fats- What are they? Dietary fats come to us from a variety of sources, but primarily in the form of triglycerides. That is, three fatty acid molecules connected by a glycerol backbone (see fatty acid primer page 3 for diagram). These fatty acids are then used as energy by our cells or modified into phospholipids to be used as cell or organelle membranes. Some fatty acids are used in lipoprotein molecules to shuttle cholesterol and fats to and from cells, and fats may also be stored for later use.

  • Trans Fatty Acids and Their Role in the Milk of Dairy Cows
    Cien. Inv. Agr. 40(3):449-473. 2013 www.rcia.uc.cl ANIMAL PRODUCTION LITERATURE REVIEW Trans fatty acids and their role in the milk of dairy cows Einar Vargas-Bello-Pérez1,2, and Phil C. Garnsworthy1 1The University of Nottingham, Sutton Bonington Campus. Loughborough, LE12 5RD, United Kingdom. 2Facultad de Agronomía e Ingeniería Forestal, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. Casilla 306, Santiago, Chile. Abstract E. Vargas-Bello-Pérez, and P.C. Garnsworthy. 2013. Trans fatty acids and their role in the milk of dairy cows. Cien. Inv. Agr. 40(3): 449-473. Lipids obtained from dairy products are an important part of the human diet in many countries. Approximately 75% of the total consumption of fat from ruminant animals comes from bovine milk fat. Trans fatty acids (tFA) are produced during biohydrogenation of mono- and poly-unsaturated FA in the rumen. They are mixtures of positional and geometrical isomers that are incorporated into the milk fat of lactating cows. The most important sources of tFA in the human diet are partially hydrogenated vegetable oils and ruminant milk and meat products. Ruminant-derived lipids often contain 1-8% of total fatty acids as tFA, which are predominantly 18:1 isomers. The most common FA in ruminant fat is vaccenic acid (18:1 trans-11) (VA), accounting for 60-80% of total tFA. Unlike other tFA, VA can be converted to rumenic acid (RA) through the action of stearoyl coenzyme-A desaturase. Today, consumers are becoming aware of the relationship between dietary fat, health maintenance, and disease prevention. These concerns have increased the need to investigate the metabolic fate and bioactivity of dietary FA.

  • Fatty Acid Composition of Summer and Winter Cows' Milk and Butter
    Journal of Food and Nutrition Research Vol. 49, 2010, No. 4, pp. 169–177 Fatty acid composition of summer and winter cows’ milk and butter JAROSLAV BLAŠKO – RÓBERT KUBINEC – RENÁTA GÓROVÁ – IGOR FÁBRY – WILHELM LORENZ – LADISLAV SOJÁK Summary Fatty acid (FA) composition of summer and winter cows’ milk and butter as well as pasture forage samples were ana- lysed by gas chromatography. The FA contents in butter fat were very similar to those in milk fat from which butters were produced. The higher average contents of FA in the summer milk compared with the winter milk (P < 0.001) were found for health-beneficial FA, e.g. cis-9, trans-11 conjugated linoleic acid 8.0 mg.g-1 vs 4.1 mg.g-1, trans vaccenic acid 17.8 mg.g-1 vs 8.5 mg.g-1, -linolenic acid 6.4 mg.g-1 vs 4.4 mg.g-1, linoleic acid 20.4 mg.g-1 vs 18.4 mg.g-1 (P < 0.01), oleic acid 218 mg.g-1 vs 194 mg.g-1, and for non-atherogenic stearic acid 102 mg.g-1 vs 90 mg.g-1 of total FA. On the other hand, the contents of health-risky palmitic acid and myristic acid were lower in the summer milk: 293 mg.g-1 vs 331 mg.g-1 (P < 0.001) and 102 mg.g-1 vs 112 mg.g-1 FA (P < 0.01), respectively. In comparison to the winter diet, the summer diet improved the rheological and nutritional properties of butter.

Food Production, Processing and Nutrition (2020) 2:17 Food Production, Processing https://doi.org/10.1186/s43014-020-00032-y and Nutrition REVIEW Open Access Potential of sea buckthorn-based ingredients for the food and feed industry – areview Arnau Vilas-Franquesa1, Jordi Saldo1,2* and Bibiana Juan1 Abstract Food industries seek to incorporate nutritious ingredients as they could bring added value to the final food products. One of the most interesting options is that sea buckthorn contains high concentrations of vitamin C, carotenoids, tocopherols, and other bioactive compounds, in addition to the unique lipid profile in the berry pulp, seed, and peel. This review summarizes the state-of-the-art of potential applications of sea buckthorn within the food and feed industry based on previously described applications. Products such as cheese, yoghurt or beverages already benefit from its application. Moreover, using sea buckthorn in feed products also derives into higher quality final products (e.g. meat quality, egg quality). Poultry, pig, and fish farming have been studied for that purpose. Despite all the accumulated articles depicted in the present review, the use of this fruit in food product formulation is nowadays scarce. New options for food product development with sea buckthorn are herein discussed.

Abstract: Sea buckthorn fruit is abundant with essential nutrients and bioactive substances, yet it remains less sought after. Therefore, it is valuable to explore new ways of sea buckthorn fruit processing, which can boost consumer acceptance of sea buckthorn fruit and also lead to formulation of new functional foods. In the presented review, we summarize studies focused on development of foods utilizing sea buckthorn fruit or its components and bacterial food cultures. Firstly, we discuss the impact of malolactic fermentation on content and profile of organic acids and polyphenols of sea buckthorn fruit juice. During this process, changes in antioxidant and sensory properties are considerable. Secondly, we address the role of sea buckthorn fruit and its components in formulating novel probiotic dairy and non-dairy products. In this regard, a synergic effect of prebiotic material and probiotic bacteria against pathogens is distinguished. Overall, the potential of sea buckthorn fruit as a botanical ingredient for application in novel foods is highlighted.

P. FREEMAN . IP address: Unilever Research Laboratory, Colworth House, Sharnbrook, Bedford (Received I July 1968-Accepted 25 October 1968) 170.106.35.76 I. The behaviour of fatty acids in dilute bile salt solution and in dispersions of triglyceride in bile salt solution was examined. The properties of fatty acids in bile salt solution were defined in terms of their saturation ratio, and of the critical micellar concentration of bile , on salt for each fatty acid as solute. The partition of fatty acids between the oil phase and the micellar phase of the dispersions was defined as the distribution coefficient K M/O. The 25 Sep 2021 at 20:48:57 phases were separated by ultracentrifugation. 2. Of the fatty acids examined, palmitic and stearic acids behaved in bile salt solution as typical non-polar solutes. Lauric, oleic and linoleic acids had properties similar to typical amphiphiles. The effectiveness of these and other amphiphiles was expressed in terms of an amphiphilic index. 3. The trans-fatty acids, vaccenic acid and linolelaidic acid possessed solubility properties similar to their &-isomers. The properties of elaidic acid were intermediate between those , subject to the Cambridge Core terms of use, available at of the non-polar and the amphiphilic solutes. 4.

Industrialization of oil and fats began with the creation of a cotton seed mill, due to higher demand several different plants have been studied to get good and healthy oil and fats. In this research the fixed oil from the berries of Sea Buckthorn was characterized and studied for its fatty acid composition by biochemical tests and Gas Chromatography Mass Spectroscopy (GCMS). The chemical characteristics of oil from seeds showed the saponification value 248.36, iodine value 80.49 and free fatty acid value 11.28%.
