| Summary: | Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) has been related to several beneficial effects on human and animal health (anticancerogens, antiatherogenics, etc.) The main dietary source of CLA for humans are foods derived from ruminants. In dairy products CLA content depends on ruminal bio-hydrogenation of the dietary unsaturated fats and it is also related to the Δ9desaturase activity in the mammary gland. The CLA level of milk is affected by various factors, including diet composition, that seems to play an important role (Jensen, 2002). The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of toasted and raw soybean addition to a mixed diet and........... |
