“…Females were always fatter than males (in agreement with Fisher, 1984;Nir et al, 1988) and this was associated with a greater adipocyte hypertrophy (Jones, 1986 (Hood and Pym, 1982;Hood, 1984).…”

“…Highfat diets also decrease the activity of desaturases (Garg et al, 1986). The activity of Δ5 desaturase appears to be low in diabetic humans (Jones et al, 1986;Bassi et al, 1996). Low insulin levels, deficiency of protein and minerals such as iron, zinc, copper and magnesium, which are often associated with malnutrition, decrease Δ6 desaturase activity and therefore the conversions of LA and ALA to LCPUFA.…”

“…In the mid 1960s it took about 68 days for a broiler chicken to reach a slaughter weight of 2 kg, but by 1987 it took about 45 days (Jones, 1986). Carcass composition of broilers is determined by genetics and dietary manipulations (Jones, 1986). High-energy diets fed to broilers to reach slaughter weight earlier increase the fat content of the edible portion significantly (Jones, 1986).…”
