Abstract

Summary Atmosphere type and storage time had significant effects on the fatty acid (FA) profile of goose breast muscle lipid. The FA profile did not change during 14 days of storage in muscle packed in vacuum. The percent of saturated FA (SFA) and monounsaturated FA (MUFA) increased gradually during 14 days of storage in samples packed in modified atmosphere, whereas the level of polyunsaturated FA (PUFA) decreased in the same period. The muscle packed in vacuum were characterised by a higher PUFA/SFA ratio and greater PUFA content concerning n-3 FA after storage in comparison to the samples packed in modified atmosphere (MA).
