RESUMEN
Adult male albino rats were supplemented with edible plant oils, corn maize and cotton seed oils and their semihydrogenated forms (Heliopolis and Sultan cooking fat). In general, the supplementation of tested oils produced increasing effect on the levels of total unsaturated fatty acids (UFA), C18:1, C18:2 and C20:4 UFA of liver and heart of rats. Liver content of UFA showed very highly significant increases in the levels of C18:1 and C18:2 in all groups of rats fed with tested oils accompanied with non significant changes in total UFA and C20:4 levels. Heart content of UFA showed increases in the levels of C18:1 and C18:2 and insignificant changes observed in total UFA and C20:4, except, in rats fed with sultan cooking fat, showed a significant increase in the level of total UFA. The level of increase in C18:1 and C18:2 was very highly significant in case of rats fed corn maize oil and Sultan cooking fat, and significant in case of rats fed cotton seed oil and Heliopolis cooking fat. Also, liver and heart UFA contents were significantly increased after antioxidant (Butylated hydroxy anisol, BHA) administration. Addition of BHA to tested diets abolished or minimized fatty infiltration produced by dietary fatty diet in the liver cells.

Adult male albino rats were supplemented with edible plant oils, corn maize and cotton seed oils and their semihydrogenated forms (Heliopolis and Sultan cooking fats) for a period of 3 months. In general, the supplementation of tested oils produced increasing effect on the serum levels of total C18:1, C18:2 and C20:4 unsaturated fatty acids (UFA). The increases were significant in case of feeding corn maize oil and Sultan cooking fat for total and C18:1 and C18:2 UFA. However, the degree of significance was intensified by the feeding of cotton seed oil and Heliopolis cooking fat. Supplementation of Sultan cooking fat showed a significant increase in serum level of C20:4, while the other tested oils and Heliopolis cooking fat produced very highly significant increase. Butylated hydroxy anisol (BHA) produced no effect on the level of UFA when administered with dietary tested edible lipid but its role revealed by maintaining the higher level of UFA due to administration of oils and its semihydrogenated analogous.
