Introduction It is well-known that n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), especially eicosapentanoic acid (EPA, 20:5, n-3) and docosahexanoic acid (DHA, 22:6, n-3), have positive effects in a wide range of health and disease conditions. For

Overview Fatty acids (FAs) are organic acids largely defined by the length and saturation of the aliphatic side chain attached to a carboxylic acid. In animals, these side chains normally contain an even number of carbon atoms and FAs are grouped
