Fatty Acid Profile of Lipid Fractions of Mangalitza () from Northern Romania: A GC-MS-PCA Approach.

Mangalitza pig () becomes more popular in European countries. The goal of this study was to evaluate the fatty acid profile of the raw and thermally processed Mangalitza hard fat from Northern Romania. For the first time, the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry-Principal component analysis technique (GC-MS-PCA)-was applied to evaluate the dissimilarity of Mangalitza lipid fractions.
