Cards

Term
Lipids improve:
Definition
taste, flavor, mouthfeel of meat, dairy, other foods
Term
Examples of Lipids in animal nutrition:
Definition
Soy or corn oil, poultry fat, choice white grease (pork), tallow (beef), animal-vegetable blend
Term
Lipid Functions:
Definition
Source of energy – most dense, Carrier for fat-soluble vitamins, Source of essential fatty acids - Essential nutrients, Important part of cell membrane, Insulation, Protection of organs
Term
Simple lipids
Definition
(alcohol + fatty acids)
Term
Triglyceride
Definition
(glycerol + 3 fatty acids)
Term
Fats
Definition
mostly saturated fatty acids; solid at room temp.
Term
Oils
Definition
mostly unsaturated fatty acids; liquid at room temp.
Term
Waxes
Definition
(fatty acids + other alcohols)
Term
Compound Lipids
Definition
(alcohol + fatty acids + prosthetic group)
Term
Derived Lipids
Definition
(hydrolyzed parts of simple or compound lipids), Free fatty acids, Glycerol, Cholesterol, Steroid hormones (androgen, estrogen, progestins), Vitamins A, D, E, K
Term
Fatty Acids
Definition
Most fatty acids in plants and animals are stored as triglycerides
Term
Saturated Fatty Acids
Definition
0 double bonds
Term
Unsaturated Fatty Acids
Definition
All fatty acids made in nature  cis unsaturated FA, Monounsaturated: 1 double bond, Polyunsaturated: 2 or more
Term
Biohydrogenation
Definition
Cis unsaturated to trans unsaturated
Term
Higher Melting Point
Definition
Saturated - rigid, solid at room temperature, longer and more bonds
Term
Lower Melting Points
Definition
Unsaturated - flexibility, liquid at room temperature, shorter and fewer bonds
Term
Sterols
Definition
Cholesterol, Fat-soluble vitamins, and steriod hormones
Term
Pancreatic Lipase
Definition
secreted in the duodenum and hydrolyze ester bonds between glycerol and other fatty acids
Term
Bile Salts
Definition
secreted in the duodenum, and activate the pancreatic lipase
Term
Chylomicron
Definition
products of repackaged triglycerides inside the enteroctye from the jejunum and coated with proteins. Cross the enterocyte to lymphatic system, then go to bloodstream and broken done by lipoprotein lipase to be distributed
Term
Lipid Digestion in Ruminants
Definition
Rumen microbes hydrolze triglcerides; glycerol fermented to volatile fatty acids and free fatty acids are saturaded by microbes (biohydrogenation)
Term
FFA in Liver
Definition
FFA converted to triglycerides for export (HDL), oxidized for ATP, or converted to ketone bodies for use by nerve cells in starvation
Term
FFA in Muscle
Definition
FFA used by myocytes for energy or stored as triglycerides
Term
FFA in Fat
Definition
FFA mostly stored in triglycerides
Term
Lipoprotein Lipase
Definition
activated by insulin to hydrolize chylomicrons to triglyceride and FFAs
Term
Lipogenesis
Definition
anabolic process(release), fatty acid snythesis and triglyceride synthesis from stored FFA, in liver, adipose tissue, mammary gland primarily
Term
Lipolysis and Fatty Acid oxidation
Definition
catabolic process(store), FA enter mitochondria and beta oxidation begins, Primary substrate in monogastrics: glucose, Primary substrate in ruminants: acetate
Term
White Adipose tissue
Definition
long term energy storage, most common, single large lipid droplet, fewer mitochondria, fewer capillaries
Term
Brown Adipose tissue
Definition
thermogenesis, small lipid droplets, many mitochondria, more capillaries, in young animals
Term
Fat-soluble Vitamins
Definition
Vitamins A, D, E, K; transported into enterocytles by micelles
Term
Linoleic acid (C18:2)
Definition
high in vegetable fats/oils
Term
Linolenic acid (C18:3)
Definition
made from linoleic acid, found in fish oil
Term
Arachidonic acid (C20:4)
Definition
found in animal fats, essential only if linoleic acid is limiting
Term
Symptoms of EFA Deficiency
Definition
Scaly skin, Loss of hair/feathering, Poor growth and performanc, Reproductive failure, Hemorrhage
Term
Protein terms
Definition
Protein -> peptide -> amino acids
Term
Essential amino acids
Definition
Phenylalanine, Valine, Threonine, Tryptophan, Isoleucine, Methionine, Histidine, Arginine, Leucine, Lysine, Mnemonic device: Pvt. Tim Hall
Term
Amino Acids: Neutral aliphatic – Simple Chains
Definition
Branched-chain amino acids, Play special regulatory roles in protein metabolism, non-aromatic hydrophobis side chains
Term
Amino Acids: Neutral aromatic
Definition
Aromatic ring structure, hydrophobic side chains
Term
Amino Acids: Neutral sulfur-containing
Definition
contain sulfur in side chains
Term
Amino Acids: Acidic
Definition
Make up 10-15% of proteins: Asn, Gin, and Glu fuels from gut tissue
Term
Essential AA for Poultry
Definition
glycine/serine and proline required
Term
Mutation:
Definition
One AA is in the incorrect sequence = protein does not fold properly = incorrect or no functionality
Term
Functions of Proteins:
Definition
Tissue, blood, enzymes, hormones, antibodies,energy storage, and lubication
