چکیده

Consumers are very concerned in "Protected Designation of Origin" (PDO) products, namely meat, since they associate these products to quality and healthy foods. Thus, it is necessary to implement analytical methodologies that could assure consumers about the products they purchase. Since this kind of meat is usually sold with no information concerning cattle sex, age and slaughter season, these characteristics were intentionally not taken into account. In this study, two Portugueses PDO bovine breeds (Mirandesa and Barrosã) and two production sub-systems (traditional and organic farming) were studied during a two-year period. Statistical analysis showed that production system and breed had a significant effect on the overall raw meat fatty acids (FA) content. Besides, the FA profiles could be used as an effective tool to differentiate the four groups studied allowing a 100% correct classification. The meat FA content was also correlated with the relative importance of the animal feeding stuff area.

Effect of storage and cooking on the fatty acid profile of omega-3 enriched eggs and pork meat marketed in Belgium

The fatty acids (FA) profile was determined in n-3 enriched (Columbus™) Belgian eggs and pork in order to evaluate to what extent the n-3 fatty acids, which are very sensitive to oxidation, are resistant to storage or cooking. In standard eggs or pork, no change of the fatty acid profile was observed after storage or cooking without culinary fat, as well as in Columbus™ eggs and pork after stor...
