Extract

In our previous study with kids (Marinova et al., 2001) it was shown that a sunflower oil supplemented diet changed deposition and distribution of body lipids. In this study, however, we are particularly interested on the effect of sunflower oil supplemented diet on the fatty acid composition of liver lipids of kids, due to the important role of liver in nutrient uptake and regulation of lipid metabolism.
