BACKGROUND/AIM: A previous study revealed the improvement of redox status in blood and tissues of young piglets (ablactation period), that consumed feed containing polyphenolic additives from byproducts of processed olive mill wastewater (OMWW). The polyphenolic additives strengthened the antioxidant defense of the piglets. Herein we analyzed the fatty acid (FA) composition of these animals in various tissues.MATERIALS AND METHODS: The steps followed during the analysis were: Preparation and isolation of byproducts containing polyphenolic compounds from OMWW processing, silage and piglet feed preparation, blood and tissue collection, fatty acid methyl esters synthesis and GC/MS analysis.RESULTS: The young piglets, that consumed feed containing polyphenolic additives from byproducts of processed OMWW, were found to have a decreased ω6/ω3 ratio, compared to samples of the control group. For example, in the quadriceps tissue the control group has a ω6/ω3 ratio of 10.1, while in the polyphenolic group this ratio was decreased to 2.93. Regarding the ratio of UFA/SFA, no significant differences were observed. Finally, the polyphenolic group exhibited almost in all tissues lower values of the ratio of PUFA/MUFA than the control group.
