Özet

In the study, the contents of tail fat fatty acid composition of 6-month-old male lambs in the breeds of Artlı, Çepni, Karayaka and Of grown in the Black Sea Region were examined. The content of saturated fatty acids in tail fat for the breeds of Artlı, Çepni, Karayaka and Of were respectively; 52.08%, 51.66%, 42.67%, 52.92% while the monounsaturated fatty acid contents were 33.25%, 33.12%, 33.07%, 32.34% respectively. The content of polyunsaturated fatty acids was determined as 0.76%, 1.20%, 0.64% and 0.87%, respectively. The presence of fatty acids desired for health was determined as 46.94% in Artlı, 51.03% in Çepni, 51.51% in Karayaka and 49.51% in the breeds of Of. In terms of polyunsaturated fatty acids in the composition of fatty acids, the highest rate was found in the Çepni breeds and the lowest in the Karayaka breeds. It has been determined that the fatty acid content has significant differences between breeds.
