Turkey meat was an important source of dietary amino acids. The influence of sex on amino acid profile of breast and thigh was studied. Regarding sex effect, the female samples presented the highest contents of proline (909 vs 798 mg/100 g) in breast and cysteine (265 vs 208 mg/100 g), methionine (314 vs 234 mg/100 g), lysine (2236 vs 2064 mg/100 g) and isoleucine (1180 vs 1062 mg/100 g) in thigh. On the other hand, the breast samples presented the highest essential/ non-essential ratio (1.06 vs 0.96 for breast and thigh, respectively). However, the total essential and non-essential amino acids did not show significant differences for both pieces. Overall conclusion, sex had slightly effect on amino acid composition of turkey meat.
