| Resumo: |
Nutritional regulation of milk and meat fatty acid composition has been the subject of intense research during the last few decades. Considerable progress has been made towards understanding the role of diet on enhancing the nutritional value of ruminantderived foods while more recent studies have attempted to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the changes in milk and tissue lipid fatty acid composition in ruminants. Diet is the major environmental factor influencing the CLA content of ruminant milk whilst the effects of genotype, stage of lactation and parity are relatively minor (Palmquist el al. 2005). Concentrations of CLA in ruminant meat are dependent on diet, gender, slaughter weight and breed with evidence of variable enrichment between tissues.
