Lipid profile of yacarés overo meat fed with diets enriched with flax seeds

Diet influences fatty acid composition of meat in monogastric animals; increasing essential fatty acids of meats would improve its nutritional quality for human consumption. The objective of the present research was to estimate the lipid profile of commercially-raised caimans, and to evaluate if add...

description Diet influences fatty acid composition of meat in monogastric animals; increasing essential fatty acids of meats would improve its nutritional quality for human consumption. The objective of the present research was to estimate the lipid profile of commercially-raised caimans, and to evaluate if addition of flaxseed into diet improves n-3 fatty acids concentration in meat. Caimans were randomly assigned to three treatments: regular food; addition of 10% whole flaxseed; and addition of 10% mashed flaxseed. Diet composition affected fatty acid profiles in the meat, and differences were more evident between control and mashed flaxseeds. Caiman meat presents a healthy fatty acid profile for human consumption and an ideal ratio n-6 / n-3. Addition of mashed flaxseeds to diet improves caiman meat qualities, by reducing the concentration of saturated fatty acids, and increasing concentration of oleic, and α-linolenic fatty acids.
