Food chemistry: Most of the food chemistry courses are designed to prepare students with knowledge of chemical structures of various food products. Food constituents are also examined, such as carbohydrates, fats, lipids, proteins, and sugars; as well as flavorings, minerals, and water components....
The samples used for this analysis were the same as those used for proximate analysis. The total lipids obtained were saponified by refluxing with KOH/EtOH, 2 M for 2 h. The FAs obtained were converted into methyl esters by reaction with methanolic hydrogen chloride (3%) under reflux...
To investigate biomarkers representing the physiological and biochemical responses of the brackish-water clam Corbicula japonica, we conducted a full factorial-design experiment to test different water-temperature levels (20 °C and 25 °C), salinity levels (5 and 20 psu), and food-availability leve...
Digestion and absorption of dietary lipids, packaging of those lipids into chylomicron particles for secretion into the circulation, and delivery to various tissues for storage or utilization are important steps in maintaining whole body lipid homeostasis19,38. The present study identifies NT-PGC-1α ...
the response variation in their fecundity was low. Contrasting food quality effects on response variation were found for survival.Brachionusshowed a high response variation in survival when feeding onS.elongatus, which is deficient in essential lipids but nonetheless provides carbon for maintenance. The ...

The metabolic regulation of homeostasis by adaptogens at the cellular and systemic level is associated with multiple targets [1]. Consequently, the pharmacology of adaptogens is a typical example of network pharmacology that can be approached using the systems biology concept. The classic reductionist ...
The levels of low density lipids (LDL), HDL and TG are monitored. According to a US study, and the Dietary Guidelines Committee, 70% of Americans are omega-3 deficient due to lack of consumption of this essential nutrient in the typical “western diet”, which includes an overabundance of...
(proteins, peptides,amino acids, carbohydrates, lipids) and inorganic salts. The sum of all organic materials is normally expressed as Total Organic Solids (TOS), which is an internationally accepted method to describe the chemical composition of commercial food enzymes (FAO/WHO, 2006). For non...
We thank the International Rice Research Institute for providing many of the pigmented rice grains. We thank N. Hassan and all members of the Laboratory for Genome Engineering and Synthetic Biology at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) for critical discussion and technical hel...
