Relationships Between Fat and Cholesterol Contents and Fatty Acid Composition in Different Meat-Producing Animal Species

The objective of this study was to determine the relationships between intramuscular fat, cholesterol contents and fatty acid composition in the muscles of different animal species. Intramuscular fat, cholesterol and fatty acid composition in 207 muscle samples from 129 animals of different species...
