Sažetak
Fatty acids are the primary components of most lipids. Fatty acid composition of adipose tissue is based on the physiological incorporation of food ingredients into adipose tissue, thus the fatty acid composition of the diet is reflected in the fatty acid composition stored in the adipose tissue, although not entirely. The lecture “Fatty acid analysis as a health and ecology research tool“represents fatty acids as a potential research tool of ecological and health status of individuals. The introductory part of the lecture includes description of fatty acids (classification, structure and function in the body, especially of essential fatty acids) as well as explanation why it is interesting and important to investigate the fatty acid tissue composition. The lecture will present, through examples from the literature and the results of own research, fatty acids as a potential biomarker for the research of free-ranging and domestic animals and the importance of natural food availability to wildlife as well as importance of proper nutrition of domestic animals.
