Abstract
The proximate analyses and fatty acid profiles of snail ( Helix aspersa maxima) muscle submitted to different feedings with diets enriched with 3% of different vegetable oils (canola, soybean, flaxseed, sunflower, maize and rice) were analysed. The lowest value of lipids was in the snail muscle of the treatment enriched with soybean oil. The main fatty acids detected were palmitic (C16:0), oleic (C18:1n9) and linoleic (LA, C18:2n6) in all treatments. The highest value for linolenic acid (LNA, C18:3n3) was observed in muscle of snail fed with enriched diet of flaxseed (oil also high in LNA).
