  1. 1. Oxidation of marine oils during in vitro gastrointestinal digestion and its effects on stress in human intestinal Caco-2 cells

    Författare :Cecilia Tullberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; lipid oxidation; human digestive fluids; LC n-3 PUFAs; Caco-2 cells; marine oils; HNE; MDA; in vitro digestion; HHE; gastrointestinal; aldehydes;

    Sammanfattning : Marine oils are attracting public interest due to the preventive effects, e.g., on inflammation, which are linked to the long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC n-3 PUFAs). However, LC n-3 PUFAs are highly susceptible to oxidation, which could interfere with their positive effects. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Valorisation of fish waste biomass through recovery of nutritional lipids and biogas

    Författare :Betty Mbatia; Bioteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; by-products; value addition; EPA; DHA; PUFA; biogas;

    Sammanfattning : Commercial fish catch in Eastern Africa is dominated by Nile Perch. Of the fish that is processed for human consumption, 30-40% is wasted. Currently, these wastes are not fully utilized; they are sold off at low price, converted to low valued products or left to decompose leading to environmental pollution and wastage of bioresource.

  4. 3. Polyunsaturated fatty acids and allergy development

    Författare :Sara Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; DTH; IgE; fish oil; farming; atopy; butter; allergy; saturated fat; fatty acids; polyunsaturated fatty acids; breast milk; margarine; serum; cord blood;

    Sammanfattning : Allergies have increased strikingly in the affluent parts of the world during the last century. The cause of the rapid increase is unknown but several risk factors have been postulated, the main ones relating to reduced microbial exposures and changed diet. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Diet and other environmental factors and the risk of rheumatoid arthritis in a population-based prospective cohort study

    Författare :Daniela Di Giuseppe; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune inflammatory disease that affects primarily the joints. RA leads to cartilage destruction and bone erosion, with substantial loss of quality of life. RA is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, gastrointestinal disorders, thus increasing disability and mortality. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids Modifying Ion Channel Voltage Gating

    Författare :Sara Börjesson; Fredrik Elinder; Klaus Benndorf; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Voltage-gated ion channels play fundamental roles in neuronal excitability and therefore dysfunctional channels can cause disease. Epilepsy is such a disease, affecting about 1% of the population and being characterized by synchronous electric activity of large groups of neurons leading to various types of seizures. LÄS MER
