All the meats analysed had similar contents (P &gt; 0.05) of cholesterol, a-tocopherol and intramuscular fat. In contrast, the percentage of 18:0 was lower for PGI veal, and that of 18:1 c9 was higher in PDO veal, whilst the percentage of 18:2 n6 was higher in PDO beef, relative to other two meats. The content of total CLA and the percentage of its t11,c13 isomer were higher, and the n6/ n3 ratio was lower, in PDO veal, relative to the other two meats. The data suggested that PGI veal has higher variability for most fatty acids than the other two types of meat. Finally, a discriminant analysis was conducted and the three meat types were well discriminated using the meat fatty acid proﬁle as variables.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;label: Beef;CLA isomers;Cholesterol;Fatty acids;Meat quality;a-Tocopherol</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alfaia, C.

Nevertheless, from a human nutrition perspective, Carnalentejana-PDO beef seems to be healthier than that from intensively reared animals since it has a lower n-6/n-3 ratio, although always above the recommended guidelines for human diet, and higher proportions of c9,t11 conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomer and total CLA relative to saturated fatty acids plus total cholesterol (CLA/SFA+CHR). Furthermore, no seasonal variation in the nutritional quality of beef-PDO was apparent.

Mertolenga purebred young bulls (n = 30) were raised in a semi-extensive production system, including a finishing period on concentrate feeds for the last 5 or 3 months (October and June samplings, respectively). Mertolenga-PDO beef showed seasonal changes in the levels of some fatty acids (including the predominant 18:2n-6), sums of trans fatty acids and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, some CLA isomers (t11,t13, t11,c13 and t10,c12), sums of geometric groups of CLA isomers and total cholesterol. In addition, significant differences were obtained between LD and ST muscles for most of the analysed parameters. From a nutritional perspective, beef-PDO from June seems to be more healthful than that from October as a consequence of its lower n-6/n-3 ratio. Moreover, the results suggest that the polyunsaturated fatty acid/saturated fatty acid ratio in the ST muscle is consistently above the recommended guideline for human diets, although the values were below that guideline for the LD muscle. Taken together, the data indicate that, although the finishing period of Mertolengo young bulls on concentrate attenuates most of the beneficial grass effects on meat fat throughout the year, beef-PDO from late spring is of greater nutritional value than that from early autumn.
