Influence of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on the fatty acid profile of rabbit milk.
Abstract
In order to assess the effect of oral conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) supplementation on the fatty acid (GA) profile of rabbit milk during the first 12 lactations, 18 New Zealand rabbits were used, randomized between the Treatment 1) control group; and treatment 2) oral supplementation of 310 mg CLA / kg metabolic weight. From day 5 until 12 postpartum, CLA (Tonalin FFA, BASF®) was administered orally daily and individual milk samples obtained by manual milking were obtained. The GA profile was determined by gas chromatography and quantified using internal standards. The supplemented CLA did not alter the chemical composition of the milk of the rabbits, but it modified the profile of the AG of the milk fat reducing the mono-unsaturated and polyunsaturated long-chain AGs and increasing the concentration C21: 0 and the C18: 2, CLA cis-9, trans-11 and CLA trans-10, cis-12 isomers.
