摘要:The aim of this study was to determine the fat content with two different methods of extraction (Soxhlet and Smedes method) and the fatty acid composition in dry-cured meat products from the Croatian market. The composition of fatty acids was determined with the gas chromatography. Determined fat contents were: 3.24-3.36% in Dalmatinski pršut, 5.24-34.40% in Istarski pršut, 19.90-20.49% in kulen, 34.12-35.24% in kulenova seka, 34.22-34.40% in zimska sausage, 41.20-42.65% in čajna sausage, 46.6346.79% in Drniš dry-cured bacon and 55.64-57.26% in Dalmatian dry-cured bacon. In total fat content different extraction methods did not show a statistically significant difference (P
