Trans Fatty Acids

Trans Fatty Acids. The King and I (Hans-aka Jeff, and Elvis aka Will). So what’s the big deal?. In 1995 trans fatty acids make up an estimated 4-12% of the average American’s dietary fat intake (Roach et al 2004). That’s 2-4% of total energy input, or as much as 13.3 g of trans fatty acid/day!

Volatile fatty acids

Volatile fatty acids. Volatile Fatty Acids. Major VFA: acetic acid; propionic acid; butyric acid. Major VFAs are absorbed and used as primary energy source by ruminants. The tissue use of VFA is lower than tissue use of the sugars (e.g., glucose).

Fatty acids

Fatty acids. They all have a carboxyl group (-COOH) at one end and a methyl group (CH 3 -) at the other end. A fatty acid has the general formula:  CH 3 -(CH 2 )n-COOH   where n is typically an even number between 12 and 22
