RESUMO
This study was undertaken to determine the effect of dietary supplementation of sunflower seed in cows on the chemical composition of milk and dairy products. Cream, butter and butter oil were prepared from milk produced by cows fed a control diet (control products) or diet supplemented with 11.2% sunflour seed (CLA-rich products). Milk samples collected were determined for lactose. A sample of CLA-rich or control product was determined for fatty acid profile as well as fat, protein and ash contents. The index of atherogenicity (IA) and the index of thrombogenicity (IT) were also calculated. Results revealed that there was no effect of the inclusion of sunflower seed in the diet on the lactose content in milk and total fat, protein and ash contents in the dairy products. Average contents of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and transvaccenic acid (TVA), expressed as g/100g total fatty acid were 0.54 and 1.6, respectively in the control products, and 2 and 6.4, respectively in the CLA-rich products. The content of either CLA or TVA was approximately four fold higher in the latter products. Moreover, CLA-rich products showed considerably low IA and IT, which were, respectively, 38.4 and 25.0% less than those from control products. Fatty acid profiles were unaffected during processing, which demonstrates that CLA is a stable component in the dairy products analyzed. It was concluded that dietary supplementation of sunflower seed in cows increases the CLA and TVA contents in milk, which may contribute to the reduction of the risk of cardiovascular diseases in humans.

Con la finalidad de determinar el perfil de ácidos grasos y la composición química de productos lácteos enriquecidos con ácido linoleico conjugado (CLA) de manera natural, se elaboraron crema, mantequilla y grasa butírica con leche obtenida de vacas que recibieron una dieta control o suplementación con semilla de girasol en un 11.2%. El análisis químico incluyó el perfil de ácidos grasos,materia grasa, proteína y cenizas; en la leche se determinó además el contenido de lactosa. Se calcularon los índices de aterogenicidad (IA) y trombogenicidad (IT) en la leche y productos elaborados. Los resultados indicaron que los contenidos de grasa, proteína, lactosa y ceniza no fueron afectados por la incorporación de semilla de girasol en la dieta de los animales. El contenido promedio de CLA y ácidotrans vaccénico (TVA) expresados en g/100 g de lípidos totales fue, para los productos control, 0.54 y 1.6; mientras que para los productos ricos en CLA fueron 2 y 6.4, lo cual representa un incremento de cuatro veces. Además, en los productos ricos en CLA los IA e IT disminuyeron considerablemente (38.4 y 25% menos, respectivamente). Se observó que los perfiles de ácidos grasos no se modificaron durante el procesamiento, indicando que el CLA es un componente estable en los productos lácteos analizados. El uso de semilla de girasol en la dieta de las vacas, incrementa el contenido de CLA y TVA en los productos lácteos y disminuye el riesgo de enfermedades cardiovasculares en humanos sin afectar la proporción de los componentes mayoritarios.
