The data contains fatty acid profiles of subcutaneous fats and intramuscular fats of lamb administered with alginate-chitosan-encapsulated and non-encapsulated Moringa oelifera leaf extract as well as carcass information. Other data sheets are for meat colour coordinates done with a Minolta colour spectrometer to test lamb colour stability. Both sets of data were captured and compiled onto Excel and then inputted into SAS for statistical analysis.
