Table 2 Content of saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids in non-SARA (control) and SARA diets (g/100 g)

From: Feeding butter with elevated content of trans-10, cis-12 conjugated linoleic acid to lean rats does not impair glucose tolerance or muscle insulin response

  1. Data presented as mean plus/minus standard error, in g/100 g of butter fat or prepared diet (*60% kcal from butter). asignificantly different from non-SARA butter (p < 0.05). n = 4 batches of non-SARA butter, and 4 batches of SARA butter. SFA, saturated fatty acids; PUFA, polyunsaturated fatty acids; MUFA, monounsaturated fatty acids.
