Effect of Dietary Fat on the Fatty Acid Composition of Eggs and Tissues of the Hen

Effect of Diethylstilbestrol and Cholesterol on the Fatty Acid Composition of Liver Lipid Fractions in Cockerels

“…In the present study an increase in eicosatrienoic acid and a decrease in arachidonic acid resulted in the liver lecithin and phosphatidyl ethanolamine fractions of cockerels on the HCO diet which was very low in Hnoleic acid. Machlin and Gordon (1962) reported that the tissue arachidonic acid of laying hens fed a HCO diet was stable and there was no presence of eicosatrienoic acid. Reiser (1950) also reported that essential fatty acids are not required by laying hens for maintenance of egg production although the hen cannot synthesize Hnoleic acid from acetate (Murty et al, 1960).…”

Fatty Acid Composition of Turkey Meat as Affected by Dietary Fat, Cholesterol and Diethylstilbestrol

“…The proportion of fatty acid was changed to a small extent by DES, C and DES + C. However, the weight of the fatty acids in unit weight ,of turkey meat was greatly changed because of the large effect on the total fat content and consequently on the total fatty acid content. INTRODUCTION Extensive work has been done on the influence of dietary fats on the fatty acid composition of chicken tissue (Machlin et al. 1962;Evans et al, 1962;Adamson et al, 1961 ;Menge et al.…”

The Influence of Different Dietary Fats on the Reproductive Performance of Turkey Hens

“…1962;Thomsen 1966) (Machlin et al 1962: Thomsen 1966). Further research is necessarv to relate these fatty acid patterns to reproduciive traits.…”
