L. aRumen biohydrogenation of polyunsaturated fatty acid sources and their effect on plasma fatty acid status in sheep. aIn: ANNUAL MEETING OF THE BRITISH SOCIETY OF ANIMAL SCIENCE, 2002, York. Proceedings... Medlothian: BSAS, 2002. p. 177.c2002 aLinoleic and a-linolenic acid were extensively biohydrogenated in the rumen. Feeding linseed oil with vermiculite significantly reduced biohydrogenation but did not alter plasma C18:3. The long chain PUFA?s were more resistant to biohydrogenation in the rumen and the algae/fish oil diet significantly increased plasma EPA and DHA concentration compared to the fish oil diet and could be used to increase n-3 PUFA?s in sheepmeat. aSheep1 aSINCLAIR, L.
