Metabolic effect of docosahexaenoic acid supplementation in different doses and formulations (ethyl- and glyceryl-) in hypercholesterolemic rats

Metabolic effect of docosahexaenoic acid supplementation in different doses and formulations (ethyl- and glyceryl-) in hypercholesterolemic rats

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) supplemented in pharmaceuticals and functional foods is commonly re-esterified as ethyl esters (DHA-EE) or alternatively as triacylglycerol (DHA-rTAG).
