EFFECT OF SOME VEGETABLE OILS ON HYPERLIPIDEMIC RATS
Abstract: The effect of diets containing different oil; olive, sesame, palm,corn apricot kernel and moringa oleifera on hyperlipidemic rats were studied . physical and chemical consants ; refractive index, acid,peroxide and iodine values; and the fatty acid composition of the investigation oil were determined . The effect of diet containing different oil (mainly high – oleic acid content) being; corn oil (basal diet,control 1) , high fat diet (HFD,control 2) , extra – virgin oliv oil (G 1) , refined olive oil (G 2) , sesame seed oil (G 3) , palm olein (G 4) , apricot kernel oil (G 5) , moringa oleifera oil (G 6) , on hyperlipidemic rats was studied it is cear that G1 fed on extra-virgin olive oil has the higher decrease in cholesterol followed by G2, G5, G6, G3, and G4. it is clear that G1 fed on extra – virgin olive oil has higher decrease in triglyceride folowed by G5, G6, G2, G3, and G4. Rats fed on different vegetable oils (control 2 and group 1 to 6) showed significant decrease in its HDL-cholesterol compared with control1.besides, there are no significant differences between the 6 groups under invistigation compared with control 2. it is clear that is there a significant difference in LDL-cholesterol content between G1, G3 and G4 except that between G2, G5 and G6 with G3 and G4 and G1 with G2. groups of rats (G1 to G6) which fed on different vegetable oils showed a significant decrease in ALT activity compared to that of HFD. It was observed the rats fed on apricot kernel oil had the highest decrease in ALT activity compared with control 2 and other oils. It is cleasr that oils under investigation (G1 to G6) caused a significant decrease in AST activity compared with that of HFD group.
