Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The lipid fractions were studied in the testicular tissue of mature bulls, of the lowland black-and-white breed. It was found that the main component of neutral lipids was cholesterol (48%) followed by triglycerides (24%), cholesterol esters (16%) and free fatty acids (12%). In cholesterol esters the main component was palmitic acid (41%) followed by oleic acid (22%), stearic acid (14%) and linoleic acid (14%). In phospholipids the main fraction was composed of lecithins (48%) followed by phosphatidylethanolamine (20%) and phosphatidic acids and phosphatidylglycerol (13%). Palmitic acid was found mainly in the fractions of lecithins and sphingomyelins, stearic acid in fractions of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol. Linoleic acid was found in the fractions of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin. Arachidonic, docosatetraenoic and docosapentaenoic acids in the fractions of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylcholine.
