Implications for the use of Mortierella fungi in the industrial production of essential fatty acids

2005-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Research has shown that essential fatty acids (EFAs) are integral to proper nutrition. It has been found that EFA deficiency causes a host of ailments in animals, including humans. In addition, research has also shown that EFAs can reverse, as well as prevent, some human disorders and diseases. Current sources of EFAs have relatively low EFA contents and the oil extraction process is fairly costly considering the...
