The aim of this study was to develop prediction equations for determining n-6 and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid(PUFA) content in beef to serve the industry as a complementary tool alongside near-infrared spectrometry (NIRS) forassessing the nutritional quality of beef carcasses as a starting point for a beef carcass classification scheme. This studyhad two objectives: 1) to predict the n-6 and n-3 PUFA composition of beef using saturated fatty acids (SFA),monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) and total PUFA contents together with livestock-related data from slaughterhouserecords and 2) to validate these equations by data predicted by NIRS. Very satisfactory prediction equations wereobtained (R²>0.9) and validated (R²>0.75) for total n-6 PUFA and 18:2 n-6. For total n-3 PUFA and 18:3 n-3,prediction equations yielded R² value of 0.77 but they were not validated with data predicted by NIRS.
