All analytical grade reagents were used without modifications during the synthesis. The chemicals used included, 1-methylimidazole (DAEJUNG, >99%), pyridine (Sigma-Aldrich, ∼99%), tri-octyl phosphine (MACKLIN, 92.23%), octyl bromide (MACKLIN, >95%) methane sulphonic acid (Sigma-Aldrich, 99%), dichloroacetic acid (Sigma-Aldrich, >98%), potassium hydrogen sulfate (MERCK, 35–37%), lithium bis(trifluoromethane-sulfonyl) imide (MERCK, 99%), sodium tetrafluoroborate (Sigma-Aldrich, 98%) and sodium hydroxide (Sigma-Aldrich, >98%). Solvents like methanol (CH3OH), chloroform (CHCl3), acetonitrile (CH3CN), n-hexane, and ethyl acetate were dried by distillation before use. The FTIR analysis was performed on the Brucker ATR-alpha FTIR instrument in 4000–550 cm−1 to identify the functional groups present in synthesized ionic liquids. The NMR analysis was performed on Brucker NMR (400 MHz) using CDCl3 as a solvent.

All chemicals were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA) if not stated otherwise. All nitro fatty acids and internal standards NO2-[13C18]OA, NO2-[13C18]LA and [15N]O2-cLA were synthesized as previously [30] (link)–[32] (link). Pancreatic lipase, cysteine, [13C3,15N]cysteine and methanesulphonic acid were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (L3126, C122009, 658057, 471356). Gastric juice artificial was purchased from Fisher Scientific Company (S76772). Strata NH2 (55 µm, 70A) columns were from Phenomenex (8B-S009-HCH). Hypersep C18 columns were purchased from Thermo Scientific (60108-305). Mass spectrometry quality solvents were purchased from Burdick and Jackson (Muskegon, MI, USA). Extra virgin olive oils and fresh olives were from Jaen, Spain, and came from three different types of cultivars: Arbequina, Frantoio and Picual [33] (link).

Amino Acid Analysis in Feed and Feces

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Amino acids in feed ingredients, diets, and fecal material were determined according to the protocol described by AOAC [42 ]. As such, dry ground samples were digested with 4 mol L−1 methane sulphonic acid (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), and AAs were determined by using a programmed automatic amino acid analyzer (L-8900; Hitachi, Japan). Detection used a post-column derivatization method with ninhydrin (520 nm, for the total acid content). A suite of amino acid concentrations as external standards, including L Norleucine (synthetic amino acid) addition as the internal standard within the sampling protocol and digestion stage, dilution, and injection (20 µL) was employed. However, the apparent nutrient digestibility coefficients (ADCs, %) and Amino Acid profile (% of digestible amino acid basis) of the FM and CM were presented in Table 3.
Apparent net protein utilization (ANPU, %) and phosphorous retention (PR, %) in feeds and fish were determined according to the method of Palma et al. [49 (link)]:

All reagents were of analytical grade and were used as purchased.
Sulphuric acid (95-97%, Fluka) and nitric acid (68.5-69.5%, Aristar for trace analysis, VWR) were used for preparing solutions. Rhenium standard for ICP (1001 AE 5 mg L À1 , 2% HNO 3 , Sigma Aldrich), germanium standard for ICP (1005 AE 2 mg L À1 , 2% HNO 3 , Sigma Aldrich), and terbium standard for ICP (1002 AE 5 mg L À1 , 2% HNO 3 , Sigma Aldrich) were used as internal standards for element quantication. External calibration was performed by diluting the CCS-5 for ICP (100.00 AE 0.70 mg mL À1 of B, Ge, Hf, Mo, Nb, P, Re, S, Sb, Si, Sn, Ta, Ti, W, and Zr, 1.2% (v/v) HF + 7.43% (v/v) HNO 3 , Inorganic Ventures) and the IV-ICPMS-71A (10 AE 0.08 mg mL À1 of Ag, Al, As, B, Ba, Be, Ca, Cd, Ce, Co, Cr, Cs, Cu, Dy, Er, Eu, Fe, Ga, Gd, Ho, K, La, Lu, Mg, Mn, Na, Nd, Ni, P, Pb, Pr, Rb, S, Se, Sm, Sr, Th, Tl, Tm, U, V, Yb, and Zn, Inorganic Ventures) calibrating standard solutions.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
