Putative Regulatory Factors Associated with Intramuscular Fat Content
PLOS ONE, 2015 Intramuscular fat (IMF) content is related to insulin resistance, which is an important prediction factor for disorders, such as cardiovascular disease, obesity and type 2 diabetes in human. At the same time, it is an economically important trait, which influences the sensorial and nutritional value of meat.

Circulating Non-Esterified Fatty Acids as Biomarkers for Fat Content and Composition in Pigs
Animals, 2021 Circulating non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) can reflect the composition of dietary fat or adipose tissues depending on the fasting conditions. Therefore, circulating NEFA may be valuable as biomarkers for meat quality traits, such as intramuscular fat ...
