Nutritional manipulation of the fatty acid composition of sheep meat: a review

2007-10-01

Abstract excerpt

Sheep meat is characterized as being high in saturated fatty acids and low in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), attributes that are regarded as being disadvantageous within the human diet. Despite fresh forage being a particularly rich source of 18:3n-3 and vegetable oils being high in 18:2n-6 and 18:3n-3, the process of biohydrogenation in the rumen generally results in proportionally less than 0·1 of these ess...
