THIS WORK was conducted to study the effects of different levels of olive pomace (OP) on body weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion efficiency of rats. Experimental rats nutrition supplemented to diabetic rats (7 rats in each group) for 42 day. After the 42 nd day, chemical analysis of marker enzyme (MDA, TAC and SOD), liver function (ALT, AST and T-protein), kidney functions (Creatinine and Blood urea), lipid profile (triglycerides, total cholesterol, HDL, LDL and vLDL), and haematological analysis was recorded. The highest effects of supplementation of olive pomace in rats nutrition on body weight of rats, were 200, 200, 205 and 225 g, of treatments (2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10% of OP), respectively as compared with normal control (0 % OP), which was 190 g. Also, the most effective treatments were 10% of OP of blood biochemical and haematological parameters, comparing with normal nutrition. Therefore, it is recommended to add olive pomace at 5%, 7.5% and 10% in rats nutrition to improve performance and health.
The present investigation was carried out to study the effect of rice bran oil (RBO) on hypocholesterolemic activity of experimental rats, and also the effect of feeding with rice bran oil (RBO) and blend oil on the growth and lipid parameters of the serum and liver of rats. Fatty acids composition and unsaponifiable matter of rice bran oil and blend oil were determined, Results showed that, rice bran oil had a higher content of saturated fatty acids (SFA), polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) than that of blend oil. Rice bran oil contained relatively higher concentration of compesterol, stigmasterol, -sitoisterol, cycloartanol, cycloartenol 24-Methylenecy cloartanol and oryzanol compared to the blend oil. The serum total and LDL-cholesterol level of rats that maintained on rice bran oil diet was significantly lower than those fed on blend oil diet. HDL-cholesterol showed a tendency to be higher. Liver lipids of rats fed on rice bran oil were also markedly lower than their blend oil fed counterparts. Finally, it can be concluded that, using rice bran oil had the pronounced effects for lowering cholesterol levels of the blood in experimental rats. The cholesterol lowering ability of rice bran oil appears to be due to unsaponifiable matter and a higher content of polyunsaturated fatty acids.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
