Four groups of eight Friesian steers were intensively finished with concentrate and cereal straw given ad libitum. Four different types of fats were included at a 4% level in the diet, namely, palm oil, sunflower oil, tallow and hydrogenated fat. The feeding trial lasted for 84 days. There were no differences on animal performance or carcass characteristics, except for animals from the hydrogenated-fat diet, which had the greatest percentage of muscle and moisture, and the lowest percentage of fat in a 6th rib dissection. Meat colour, texture, lipid oxidation and consumer acceptability did not differ among the diets. Nevertheless, the effects of ageing or display time were more important than those of the source of fat. Intramuscular fatty acid profile was hardly influenced by the fat source. In conclusion, the type of fat added at the final stage of the rearing process, at a 4% of inclusion level, did not produce noticeable variations on productive parameters or product quality. This would allow to formulate rations for cattle, using the most profitable source of fat (added at low levels), without having variability on the product quality. 000148080 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess$$aAll rights reserved$$uhttp://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 000148080 590__ $$a0.902$$b2015 000148080 591__ $$aAGRICULTURE, MULTIDISCIPLINARY$$b20 / 57 = 0.351$$c2015$$dQ2$$eT2 000148080 592__ $$a0.555$$b2015 000148080 593__ $$aFood Science$$c2015$$dQ2 000148080 593__ $$aAnimal Science and Zoology$$c2015$$dQ2 000148080 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000148080 700__ $$aMuela, Erica 000148080 700__ $$aVelandia Valero, Maribel 000148080 700__ $$aNunes Prado, Ivanor 000148080 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-8180-8663$$aCampo, Maria del Mar$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000148080 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0001-6955-355X$$aOlleta, José Luis$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000148080 700__ $$aCatalán, Octavio 000148080 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0001-6166-7499$$aSañudo, Carlos$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000148080 7102_ $$12008$$2700$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
