  2. Fat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat

    However, since the fats and oils in most natural and traditionally processed foods contain both unsaturated and saturated fatty acids, [73] the complete exclusion of saturated fat is unrealistic and possibly unwise. For instance, some foods rich in saturated fat, such as coconut and palm oil, are an important source of cheap dietary calories ...

  3. Chicken fat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken_fat

    Chicken fat. Chicken fat is fat obtained (usually as a by-product) from chicken rendering and processing. Of the many animal-sourced substances, chicken fat is noted for being high in linoleic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid. Linoleic acid levels are between 17.9% and 22.8%. [1] It is a common flavoring, additive or main component of chicken soup.

  4. High-altitude adaptation in humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-altitude_adaptation...

    High-altitude adaptation in humans is an instance of evolutionary modification in certain human populations, including those of Tibet in Asia, the Andes of the Americas, and Ethiopia in Africa, who have acquired the ability to survive at altitudes above 2,500 meters (8,200 ft). [1] This adaptation means irreversible, long-term physiological ...

  5. Lauric acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lauric_acid

    Lauric acid, systematically dodecanoic acid, is a saturated fatty acid with a 12-carbon atom chain, thus having many properties of medium-chain fatty acids. [6] It is a bright white, powdery solid with a faint odor of bay oil or soap. The salts and esters of lauric acid are known as laurates.

  7. Fat hydrogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat_hydrogenation

    v. t. e. Fat hydrogenation is the process of combining unsaturated fat with hydrogen in order to partially or completely convert it into saturated fat. Typically this hydrogenation is done with liquid vegetable oils resulting in solid or semi-solid fats. Changing the degree of saturation of the fat changes some important physical properties ...

  9. Near-infrared window in biological tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Near-infrared_window_in...

    The near-infrared (NIR) window (also known as optical window or therapeutic window) defines the range of wavelengths from 650 to 1350 nanometre (nm) where light has its maximum depth of penetration in tissue. [1] Within the NIR window, scattering is the most dominant light-tissue interaction, and therefore the propagating light becomes diffused ...
