The present study was undertaken to assess the intramuscular fatty acid composition of different muscles taken from male Pateri (n = 15) goats, reared on naturally grown grasses, leaves and pods of Acacia nilotica and crushed cereal, under traditional way of feeding. Goats were slaughtered with an average weight of 68 ± 7 kg and age 12 ± 1 month. The samples were taken from longissimus dorsi region (between the 12th and 13th rib) and distal region of semitendinosus muscle. Results of total fat content and fatty acids composition does not show significant (P > 0.05) variation among muscles investigated. The fatty acid composition of muscles studied were primarily composed of oleic (31.50–33.38%), followed by palmitic acid (19.84–22.05%) and stearic acid (22.25–24.91%) respectively. Muscle tissue in general contained an average 51.13% of saturated fatty acids and 48.87% of unsaturated fatty acids. The mean conjugated linoleic acid was found 0.41%, 0.43% and 0.47% in ribeye and loin portion of longissimus dorsi muscle and distal region of semitendinosus muscle, respectively.
