All of these 12-oxime dehydroabietic acid derivatives crystallize in orthorhombic system, space group P212121. In the structures, rings A and B exhibit chair and half-chair configurations, respectively and form trans ring junction with two methyl groups(C(19) and C(20)) in the axis positions. The oxime groups have E conformations. Comparison of conformations reveals subtle differences principally in ring B due to the modification in C(12). The E-acetaldehyde oxime derivative 2c showed distinct BKα gate-opening activity with an ionic current increase of 164% at 30 μM versus the control current.展开更多

Their spatial structures were determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. UV-Vis absorption and fluorescence spectral characteristics of these compounds in methanol were investigated. Their fluorescence emission spectra in different polarity solvents were further evaluated. Fluorescent properties and structural relationship of the compounds showed that fluorescence intensity and quantum yield inversely increase with the non-coplanar degree. In addition, the solvent polarity has different effects on the fluorescence emission spectra of two compounds.展开更多

The content of DHA+EPA is 26.86% in the tuna oil used in this study. A response surface methodology(RSM) was used to optimize the reaction parameters(reaction temperature, substrate molar ratio, enzyme amount and reaction time), and the optimized conditions were determined to be: reaction temperature 58℃, substrate molar ratio(capric acid : tuna oil) 4:1, enzyme amount 4%, and reaction time 7.5 h. Under the optimized conditions, the content of DHA+EPA in the glycerides was 40.03%, which is 13.17% higher than that in raw tuna oil. In addition,the MLM-type structured lipids containing medium chain fatty acids(capric acid) at positions sn-1,3 and a long chain fatty acid(DHA/EPA) at the position sn-2 may have many health benefits for humans.展开更多

Most notable of these LC-PUFA is docosahexaenoic acid (DHA C22:6) whose inclusion is considered essential for optimum human health. Biofortification of common foods such as eggs with DHA has emerged as a specific approach to increase the intake of DHA in human populations. This can be achieved by supplementing poultry rations with feeds like microalgae or fish oil that are rich in DHA, which results in an increased uptake in the egg. Gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC-FID) is the method of choice when analyzing food such as eggs for DHA and other fatty acids. For regulatory studies it is desirable to demonstrate that the method is specifically suitable for the analysis of DHA and fatty acids in eggs. The purpose of this paper is to further extend the scope of the AOAC 996.06 methodology examined in the paper by Dillon et al., and to demonstrate the fitness for purpose of the method by examining specific validation parameters. It is a further objective to investigate the stability of DHA and other fatty acids of short and long timepoints. A validation of the method for the determination of DHA and three other fatty acids in eggs is thus presented.展开更多

This has led to an increased interest in the enrichment of certain foodstuffs with DHA by supplementing animal fed with DHA-rich ingredients which can lead to an increased uptake in the meat, milk and eggs animal by-products. The microalgae Aurantiochytrium limacinum has been found to be especially useful in this pursuit. It is subsequently desirable to availably have a simple and robust method for the routine analysis of DHA and other fatty acids in the algal biomass. The AOAC method 996.06 is often followed for the analysis of fatty acids in foods and demonstrating that its fitness for purpose in the analysis of DHA and additional fatty acids in Aurantiochytrium limacinum is therefore the objective of this paper. A validation of the method for the determination of DHA and three other fatty acids in Aurantiochytrium limacinum is presented. The method was found to be linear over the following ranges for each fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) analyte;50 to 15,000 μg/ml (C14:0), 300 to 95,000 (C16:0), 25 to 15,000 (C18:0) and 300 to 59,375 (C22:6). The accuracy, precision and LOD and LOQ of the method were confirmed and its robustness tested. The application of the method to assess the stability of Aurantiochytrium limacinum containing two alternative antioxidants was further examined. The investigation showed that DHA was stable over six months with the inclusion of either Duralox? or ethoxyquin as an antioxidant and ethoxyquin could additionally stabilize DHA in Aurantiochytrium limacinum up to 24 months.展开更多
