Abstrakt: In cockerels fed diets containing 8.2% of vegetable fat and 2% of cholesterol, there was a close connection between plasma lipid pattern and the composition of the fat fed. Plasma cholesterol concentrations were inversely proportional to the percentage of polyenoic acids in the fat (or directly proportional to saturated plus monoenoic). Plasma lipid phosphorus concentrations were inversely proportional to the total amount of unsaturation. Aortic lesion scores were not closely related to the composition of the fat fed. It appears that a given plasma cholesterol concentration in birds fed some fats may not be so injurious as the same concentration would be in birds fed other fats.
