Table 3 shows the proximate chemical composition of the four
types of MMP analyzed, elaborated with the different GB types. The
MMP1 presented significantly lower moisture and protein contents
(p < 0.05), whereas MMP3 and MMP4 showed the lowest fat content (p < 0.05). The MMP2 presented the significantly highest fat
value (p < 0.05). The caloric value of the four types of MMP studied
differs significantly among them and ranged between 250 and
312 kcal/100 g product.
Fatty acid profiles in the four types of MMP assessed are shown
in Table 4. The quantitatively most important FAs were C16:0 and
C18:0 among the SFA, and C18:1n9 between the MUFA. The results for the four types of MMP were consistent with those obtained
for the corresponding GB used in their elaboration. The MMP3
showed the lowest content of C16:0 and C18:0 and the highest one
of C18:1n9. It was not detected any trans-FA content in the four
types of MMP. The essential fatty acid C18:2n6 was found in
higher proportion in MMP3 than in MMP4, and it was two times
