- Tracing aquatic food webs using fatty acids: from qualitative indicators to quantitative determination (2009, background): “Such limitations generally increase with increasing phylogenetic order, culminating in vertebrates (Cook 1996) .”
- Towards Fish Lipid Nutrigenomics: Current State and Prospects for Fin-Fish Aquaculture (2008, background): “Synthesis of ARA is achieved by 6 desaturation of 18:2n-6 to produce 18:3n-6 that is elongated to 20:3n-6 and finally desaturated at the 5 position to produce ARA (Figure 2; Cook, 1996).”
- Omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and aquaculture in perspective (2015, background): “LNA is first elongated or not) and a Δ5 desaturase (Cook and McMaster, 2004).”
- Molecular Cloning and Functional Characterization of Fatty Acyl Desaturase and Elongase cDNAs Involved in the Production of Eicosapentaenoic and Docosahexaenoic Acids from α-Linolenic Acid in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) (2004, background): “EPA is synthesised from 18:3n-3 by desaturation at the 6 position, followed by a 2-carbon elongation, that is in turn followed by a further desaturation at the 5 position (Cook, 1996).”
- Allocation of essential lipids in Daphnia magna during exposure to poor food quality (2007, background): “ARA can be attributed mainly to its function as a precursor of prostaglandins (Cook 1996), which regulate”
- Effect of feeding flax and two types of antioxidants on egg production, egg quality, and lipid composition of eggs (2009, background): “The Δ(9)-, Δ(6)-desaturase pathway is involved in the synthesis of FA [14].”
- From lavage to lipids: Estimating diets of seabirds (2012, unknown): “Several characteristics of FAs and their storage patterns make them very useful tracers of predator diets and marine foodweb structure (e.g. Cook 1996, Budge et al. 2006, Iverson 2009).”
- A fundamental dichotomy in long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid abundance between and within marine and terrestrial ecosystems (2017, background): “While vertebrates can synthesize their own LC-PUFA from their dietary precursors (ALA and LNA), the rate of synthesis is generally limited (Cook and McMaster 2004; Tocher et al. 2006); therefore, consuming EPA, DHA, and ARA pre-formed in the diet is highly advantageous for many vertebrates (Arts et…”
