Effects of Aronia melanocarpa juice on plasma and liver phospholipid fatty acid composition in Wistar rats

A nutritional placebo-controlled study was performed in Wistar rats in order to investigate the effects of 5-weeks aronia juice consumption towards fatty acid (FA) composition of phospholipids in the plasma and liver, as well as plasma glucose (Glu) and cholesterol levels. The animals were divided i...
