RT Journal Article T1 Fatty acids and sensory characteristics of Spanish dry-cured loin enriched in acid alpha-linolenic and alpha-tocopherol A1 Hoz Perales, Lorenzo De La A1 Cambero Rodríguez, María Isabel A1 Santos Arnaiz, Carlos A1 Herranz Hernández, María Beatriz A1 Ordóñez Pereda, Juan Antonio AB The effects of using α-linolenic and α-tocopherol acid-enriched pork on the fatty acids and sensory characteristics of Spanish dry-cured loins were investigated. For the study, five batches of Spanish dry-cured loins were manufactured using pork loin enriched in polyunsaturated n − 3 fatty acids and α-tocopherol. Tissues were obtained from pigs fed on diets with the same ingredients, except for the oil source which corresponded to: [sunflower (C), linseed (L) and linseed and olive (1/1, w/w) (LO)] and two different amounts of α-tocopheryl acetate [20 (C, L and LO) or 200 (LOE and LE) mg/kg diet]. Dry-cured loins with polyunsaturated fatty acid n6/n3 ratios below 4 were obtained from linseed and linseed/olive oil-enriched batches. Dry-cured loin manufactured with pork from animals fed on diets enriched only with linseed oil presented the worst sensory characteristics and higher TBAR values than did dry-cured loins from animals fed on diets enriched with linseed and olive oil and linseed oil plus tocopheryl acetate.
