Inflammatory mediated diseases such as cardiovascular disease, type-2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome and Alzheimer's disease are major causes of death in Australia. Rates of these diseases are rising over time, partly due to poor diet including low consumption levels of healthy omega-3 fatty acids from fish. This project aims to develop healthy food ingredients from naturally occurring omega-3 fatty acid derivatives that are more stable to oxidation and more biologically active than fish derived omega-3 fatty acids. The development of these omega-3 derivatives as functional food ingredients could provide an additional strategy for helping to prevent the rapid increase in inflammatory mediated diseases in the Australian population.

炎症介导的疾病，如心血管疾病，2型糖尿病，代谢综合征和阿尔茨海默病是澳大利亚的主要死亡原因。随着时间的推移，这些疾病的发病率正在上升，部分原因是饮食不良，包括鱼类中健康的ω-3脂肪酸消费水平低。该项目旨在从天然存在的omega-3脂肪酸衍生物中开发健康的食品成分，这些衍生物比鱼类衍生的omega-3脂肪酸更稳定，更具有生物活性。这些omega-3衍生物作为功能性食品成分的开发可以提供一种额外的策略，帮助预防澳大利亚人口中炎症介导的疾病的快速增加。
