“…The microwave‐assisted method of FAME preparation, which we validated in this study can be used to prepare FAME from other food matrices such as dairy products (milk, infant formula, butter), meat products (cooked chicken breast, cooked ham, sausages), ready‐to‐eat meals (bolognaise, chicken curry, lasagne), peanut butter, and olive oil (Brunton et al., ). It has also been successfully applied to the fatty acid profiling and quantification in samples such as barley factions (Gangopadhyay et al., ), beef jerky (Ojha, Harrison, Brunton, Kerry, & Tiwari, ), and pork meat (Ojha, Perussello, et al., ). When the currently validated method of BCFA analysis was performed in ovine muscle, no BCFA were detected, nonetheless, total fatty acid profiling of FAME derived from ovine muscle was also possible using this method (Gravador et al., ).…”
