Trans fatty acids (also called trans-unsaturated fatty acids) are derived from trans fats, which are triglycerides (esters of glycerin). Trans fats are converted to trans fatty acids in the digestive …

A trans fatty acid (commonly shortened to trans fat) is an unsaturated fatty acid molecule that contains a trans double bond between carbon atoms, which makes the molecule kinked. …

Fats come in multiple forms, saturated, unsaturated and trans fats just to name a few. Saturated fats are solid at room temperature due to their molecular shape. The term saturated is in …

2022年11月18日 · All fats have a chemical structure that consists of long hydrocarbon chains, which is a series of carbon atoms bonded together and hydrogen atoms to stabilize the …

2025年1月1日 · trans fat, fat produced from the industrial process of hydrogenation, in which molecular hydrogen (H 2) is added to vegetable oil, thereby converting liquid fat to semisolid fat.

2016年10月12日 · Now, the suggested molecular mechanism behind the health risks associated with trans-fatty acids has to do with a property of the cell's membrane called membrane fluidity.

Trans fats are unsaturated fats with trans double bonds instead of cis bonds. The type of bond affects the shape of the fatty acid chain. A trans bond creates a straight chain, whereas a cis …

This review focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the deleterious effects of trans fatty acids by juxtaposing effects of trans fatty acids against those of cis-unsaturated fatty acids and …

Chemical structure of Elaidic acid (C 9 H 17 C 9 H 17 O 2), an isomer of oleic acid, but a trans fat. In the trans configuration the carbon chain extends from opposite sides of the double bond …

2014年6月27日 · The most important cluster of trans fatty acids is trans-C18:1 isomers, that is, fatty acids containing 18 carbon atoms plus one double bond, whose position varies between …
