General description
Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) describes the positional and geometric isomers of C18:2 fatty acids (FA) with a conjugated double bond. cis-9, trans-11 CLA are considered as the major isomers of CLA, based on in vitro experiments and animal studies in milk. The major source of CLA in human diet is the ruminant fat.
Application
Linoleic acid, conjugated methyl ester (CLA) has been used as a standard for the determination of isomers of CLA in milk samples by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. It has also been used in the production of sn-1,3 diacyl glycerol.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers as supplements inhibit the growth of numerous human cancer cell lines. It also possesses immunostimulant properties, prevents diabetes and reduces atherosclerosis.
Other Notes
A mixture of cis- and trans-9,11- and -10,12-octadecadienoic acid methyl esters. Isomer ratio may vary from lot to lot.

To investigate the feasibility of milk fatty acids as predictors of onset of luteal activity (OLA), 87 lactations taken from 73 healthy Norwegian Red cattle were surveyed over 2 winter housing seasons. The feasibility of using frozen milk samples for

A great deal of uncertainty still exists about intermediate metabolites and pathways explaining the biohydrogenation (BH) of 20- and 22-carbon polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). Therefore, this study was conducted to provide further insight into the ruminal metabolism of 20:5 n-3

Lipids of different unsaturation degree were added to dairy ewe diet to test the hypothesis that unsaturated oils would modulate milk fatty acid (FA) profile without impairing or even improving feed efficiency. To this aim, we examined milk FA profile
