Review: Trans-forming beef to provide healthier fatty acid profiles
(Agricultural Institute of Canada, 2011-12)
[EN]Trans fatty acids are found naturally in foods, particularly in those derived from ruminant animals, such as beef and dairy cattle. Over the past few decades, human consumption of trans fatty acids has increased, but ...
Short communication: Rapid separation of cis9, trans11- and trans7,cis9-18:2 (CLA) isomers from ruminant tissue using a 30 m SLB-IL111 ionic column
(Agricultural Institute of Canada, 2011-12)
[EN]Rumenic acid (cis9,trans11-18:2) is the main natural isomer of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). Rumenic acid has many purported health benefits, but effects of most other CLA isomers are unknown. Typically trans7,cis9-18:2 ...
Length of concentrate finishing affects the fatty acid composition of grass-fed andgenetically lean beef: an emphasis on trans-18:1 and conjugated linoleic acid profiles
(2011)
Intensively finishing cattle on a high-grain diet is generally used to enhance marbling, whereas extensively finishing on grass is
known to provide improved muscle fatty acid profiles. The objective of this study was to ...
