Modified Triglyceride Including Omega-3 Fatty Acid Residue
Various embodiments disclosed relate to modified triglyceride including omega-3 fatty acid residue, structured fat blends including the same, food and fish feeds including the same, and methods of making any of the foregoing. A modified triglyceride includes an omega-3 fatty acid residue and a saturated fatty acid residue. A structured fat blend including the modified triglyceride can be a product of interesterification of a starting material triglyceride including an omega-3 fatty acid residue and a highly saturated triglyceride. When used in a fish feed, the modified triglyceride can experience less leakage in water than the starting material triglyceride including the omega-3 fatty acid residue.
NUTRITIONAL FORMULA
The present disclosure provides a nutritional formula comprising alpha-lactalbumin enriched whey protein concentrate; lactoferrin; oleic acid-palmitic acid-oleic acid triglyceride; lactose; lutein; docosahexanoic acid; arachidonic acid; galactooligosaccharides; and fructooligosaccharides. The provided nutritional formulas may be useful in providing nutrition and/or promoting postnatal development of a subject (e.g., promoting postnatal development of an infant's gastrointestinal tract, promoting proper gastrointestinal function, nutrient absorption, proper immune system development, etc.). Also provided are powder forms, reconstituted formulas, kits, methods, and uses that include or involve a nutritional formula described herein.

COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING CHOLINE AND OMEGA-3 FATTY ACID TO NUTRITIONALLY ENHANCE FOOD PRODUCTS
Provided herein is a composition that includes choline or choline salt and omega-3 fatty acid for nutritionally enhancing a food product, as well as the resultant food products. The food product when nutritionally enhanced with the composition has an acceptable taste or acceptable odor or the food product has a peroxide value of less than 50 mEq. Methods of preparing the composition and food products are also are provided. As seen in the accompanying figure the discoveries outlined herein have resulted in an unprecedented level of organoleptic stability over time, with no significant change to key sensory parameters typically seen in products that contain high levels of choline and omega-3 fatty acids.

MICROBIAL-BASED PROCESS FOR QUALITY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE FROM HEMPSEED
The present invention describes a bio-based process to produce high quality protein concentrate (HQPC) by converting hempseed derived celluloses into bioavailable protein by incubation of hempseed feedstock with microbes, including the use of such HQPC so produced as a nutrient for animals and humans.

Fat composition
Provided is a fat or oil having a high diacylglycerol content and rich in α-linolenic acid, in which crystallization at low temperature is suppressed, and which hardly causes white turbidity or deposition. Specifically, provided is a fat or oil composition, which satisfies the following (1) to (4): (1) a content of α-linolenic acid in constituent fatty acids of a fat or oil is 40 mass % or more; (2) a total content of a saturated fatty acid having 16 carbon atoms and a saturated fatty acid having 18 carbon atoms in the constituent fatty acids of the fat or oil is 6 mass % or less, and a content of the saturated fatty acid having 18 carbon atoms in the constituent fatty acids of the fat or oil is less than 3 mass %; (3) a content mass ratio of the saturated fatty acid having 16 carbon atoms (P) to the saturated fatty acid having 18 carbon atoms (S) , [(P)/(S)], in the constituent fatty acids of the fat or oil is 0.1 or more and less than 3.5; and (4) a content of diacylglycerols is 25 mass % or more.
