    Effect of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on the fatty acid profile in rats
    (Society of Fishery Technologists (India), 1998) Nair, P.G.V.; Ammu, K.; Devadasan, K.
    Effect of a polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) concentrate containing about 80 percentage free acids at a level of 1 percentage of the diet, on the fatty acid profile of the lipids of liver and heart of rats fed on it for a period of three months was investigated. Law levels of dietary PUFA influence fatty acid composition of the lipids in liver and heart. The pattern of changes was different in the two organs, indicating tissue specificity to n-3 PUFA.

    Effects of peroxidised PUFA on tissue defence system in experimentally induced myocardial infraction in rats
    (Society of Fisheries Technologists(India),Cochin, 2003) Anandan, R.; Mathew, S.; Asha, K.K.; Ammu, K.; Nair, P.G.V.
    In the present study, the administration of peroxidised PUFA was found to aggravate the isoproterenol-induced myocardial infraction in rats, which was evident from the increased level protein and enhanced the release of marker enzymes in the serum of rats given PUFA and isoproterenol. It was also observed that oxidized PUFA in the diet resulted in higher levels of peroxidation and lower levels of antiperoxidative enzymes.
