✦ Synopsis


Lipid variations of canned sardines in olive oil, both quantitative and in fatty acid composition, have been studied during various stages of the canning process : raw sardines (RS), precooked sardines (PS), just canned sardines (CS) and sardines stored for 6 months (6MS), 12 months (12MS) and 5 years (5YS). The e †ect of maturation on the palatability of sardines has also been observed by means of triangle tests using a panel of 60 tasters. Our results show a signiÐcant loss of SFA in Ðsh during the canning process (C16 : 0, 273 ^6 g kg~1 of fat in RS and 169 ^11 g kg~1 of fat in CS) and a rise in MUFA (C18 : 1 207 ^2 g kg~1 of fat in RS and 506 ^14 g kg~1 of fat in CS) ; PUFA showed almost no variation. The maturation and canning processes both yielded similar qualitative modiÐcations. The palatability of the sardines was signiÐcantly higher after 6 months of maturation than immediately after canning, and this quality was maintained, for at least 5 years of storage.
