This review aims to summarize the latest developments and recent knowledge regarding the fatty acids in fish and beef, their profiles and nutritional values. The paper covered the types of different fatty acids such as unsaturated fatty acids (UFA), polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), especially the omega-3 in different fish species. The study also summarized the nutritional values of the fatty acids as compared to those in other animal species. However, the strategies influencing the fatty…

Farmed Versus Wild Fish Consumption in Relation to Fatty Acid Composition in the Kingdom of Bahrain
Fish protein contains all the essential amino acids and it is an indispensable dietary source of some vital minerals like iodine, selenium, iron, zinc and some vitamins like vitamin B, A, D and E…
Differences in omega-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids composition among Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) families
Fish and seafood are considered as the main sources of highly unsaturated omega-3 fatty acids in the human diet and has lots of health beneficial advantages. However, due to the shortage of fish oil…
Comparative study of properties and fatty acid composition of some neat vegetable oils and waste cooking oils
Vegetable oils have been used as a feedstock for fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) production. The high cost of neat vegetable oil and its impact on food security have necessitated its replacement as…

Retinol, alpha-tocopherol and fatty acid content in Bulgarian black Sea fish species
TLDR
Relatively high levels of retinol and alpha-tocopherol, FA composition, n3/n6 FA and PUFA/SFA ratios indicate that these fish species have good nutritional quality.

Meat fatty acid composition as affected by fatness and genetic factors: a review
TLDR
Although there is potential for genetic change, incorporating fatty acid composition as a goal in classical breeding programs does not seem worthwhile at the present and biochemical and molecular genetic studies should be encouraged to unravel the mechanisms responsible for differences in the metabolism and incorporation of specific fatty acids in meat.
