Spring summer 2010, Vol.4, No.1 /72 Medical Laboratory Journal Evaluation of Cholesterol Panel Changes in Fish Consumers in the West of Mazandaran Province, Iran Abstract Bachground and objectives: Eating fish reduces low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and increases high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC). Because of different factors, such as physiological conditions and kind of fish consumption, the findings can be different. We decided to investigate the reducing effect of regular fish eating on plasma lipids and lipoproteins of different groups. Material and Methods: the Subjects were 50 clients (control group) with normal Lipid and 50 ones with high Lipid (case group). The subjects, with different sex and age, were asked about smocking, heart disease and diabetes. Fast blood samples were collected and analyzed for total cholesterol (TC), low and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C, HDL-C and VLDL), TG, HDLC, apolipoprotein A and B. Results: The data shows a significant difference in cholesterol, LDL, apoA and VLDL levels in moderate and high consumers. (P<0.005). In subjects with high LDL, the kind of fish consumption was stir- fried (0.96%) and grilled and boiled (7.4%). The Subjects with high-fish consumption is 32.2% for normal LDL Level and Just 1.1% for ab normal Level. There is no significant effect on HDL and apoB levels due to fish intake in any dosage. The relation is seen between abnormal lipid and rare fish consumption. Conclusion: Present study shows the reducing effect of fish consumption on cholesterol level and LDL-C. More studies are needed to be conducted to evaluate the type of faty acids in fishes. . Key words: Fish, dietary, cholesterol panel.

Abstract

Background and objectives: Chitosan is a preservative that is commonly used in food packaging due to forming a film with antimicrobial activity. Many antimicrobial agents have been used to control the growth of different bacteria, fungi and yeasts in food products using chitosan coating. The present research was conducted to examine inhibitory effects of a coating incorporated with the essential oils of Zataria multiflora (ZEO) and Bunium persicum (BEO) on the growth of Pseudomonas artificially inoculated onto salmon fillets over a period of 12 days at 4 °C.
Methods: The antibacterial activity of BEO against P. aeruginosa was evaluated using the microdilution method via determining minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration. For the food model investigation, three P. aeruginosa strains were inoculated onto trout fillets as culture cocktail to assess their survival over 12 days of storage.
Results: The results indicated that ZEO and BEO had stronger inhibitory effect on P. aeruginosa in trout fillets when applied along with gel type nano-emulsion of chitosan solution. The separate use of each of these substances also significantly inhibited the growth of these pathogenic bacteria compared with the control. In addition, the use of chitosan coating without any antimicrobial agent affected the growth of P. aeruginosa.
Conclusion: The gel type nano-emulsion of chitosan coating containing ZEO and BEO can be applied on foodstuff, particularly fish and its products, as an antimicrobial agent.
