20110028434 | LONG-CHAIN POLYUNSATURATED FATTY ACIDS (LC-PUFA) IN MATERNAL NUTRITION DURING PREGNANCY AND LACTATION - The present invention relates in general to maternal food compositions. In particular, the present invention relates to maternal food compositions comprising LC-PUFA and their uses. Embodiments of the present invention relate to maternal food compositions comprising a source of lipids, wherein the source of lipids includes at least one LC-PUFA in the form selected from the group consisting of phospholipids (PL), phosphotidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), N-Acylphosphatidylethanolamine (NAPE), phosphatidylinositol (Pl), phosphatidylserine (PS) or their lyso derivatives and their uses in brain development and eye development of neonates. | 02-03-2011 |
20110165198 | METHOD FOR REDUCING LIPID ABSORPTION BY AN ANIMAL - The invention provides methods for using fatty acid alkanolamides for reducing lipid absorption from the intestine of an animal. Reducing lipid absorption results in fewer lipids available for an animal to convert to body fat. Converting fewer lipids to body fat means that the animal reduces body fat, body weight, and/or body weight gain when consuming an equivalent amount of lipids without the fatty acid alkanolamides. | 07-07-2011 |
20110275600 | METHODS FOR INCREASING ENDOGENOUS PLASMALOGEN LEVELS - The invention provides methods for increasing endogenous plasmalogen levels in an animal by administering to the animal an endogenous plasmalogen level increasing amount of one or more long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFAs). | 11-10-2011 |
20110313039 | METHOD FOR INCREASING ENDOGENOUS PLASMALOGEN LEVELS IN MAMMALS - The present invention relates generally to compounds such as alkylglycerol and alkoxyglycerol for use in increasing the endogenous level of plasmalogens in a mammal. In particular, these compounds are used for increasing the endogenous plasmalogen level to a level greater than the level in healthy mammals. According to the present invention such compounds are also for use in the prevention or treatment of diseases caused or affected by a decreased endogenous level of plasmalogens. A method for the manufacture of a dietary precursor for the use of the present invention is also part of the present disclosure. | 12-22-2011 |
20130109753 | SN-2-MONOACYLGLYCEROLS AND LIPID MALABSORPTION | 05-02-2013 |
20140031426 | SN-1(3) MONOACYLGLYCERIDES AND LIPID ABSORPTION - The present invention relates generally to the field of lipids and in particular aims at improving lipid absorption, for example under conditions of lipid maldigestion or malabsorption. One embodiment of the present invention relates to a composition comprising sn-1(3) monoacylglycerols, wherein the sn-1 or sn-3 position is occupied by an acyl group such as a fatty acid and the sn-2 position remains unoccupied. The fatty acid may be one with anti-inflammatory properties. | 01-30-2014 |
20140142169 | SN-2-MONOACYLGLYCEROLS AND LIPID MALABSORPTION - The present invention relates generally to the field of lipids and in particular aims at improving lipid absorption, for example under conditions of lipid maldigestion or malabsorption. One embodiment of the present invention relates to a composition comprising a sn-2 monoacylglycerol derivative, wherein the sn-1 and sn-3 positions are blocked by protective groups. The acyl group may be a fatty acid, for example one with anti-inflammatory properties. | 05-22-2014 |
20140322187 | MONOUNSATURATED FATTY ACID FOR NAILCARE - The invention relates to the cosmetic use of an effective amount of at least one monounsaturated fatty acid, of a salt thereof and/or of an ester thereof, as a nailcare active agent. | 10-30-2014 |
