Lipid matter (total content, sterols, tocopherols) showed to accumulate in the edge zone (EZ), except for phospholipid (PL), which provided a distribution that was found to be independent from the kind of turbot and the zone considered. Fatty acid composition of total lipids showed a non-homogeneous distribution, as the EZ exhibited a different fatty acid group composition (higher monounsaturated and lower polyunsaturated and ω3/ω6 ratio values) than the other zones considered; fewer differences were observed by considering the PL fatty acid composition. Most minerals (Ca, Cu, Fe, Mn and Se) studied showed to be homogeneously distributed along the muscle sites of the wild fish, while more differences were obtained when considering the farmed one. For both kinds of turbots, the most important difference was obtained in the case of Zn, as a largely higher content in the EZ than in the other zones was detected. A close relationship between Zn and total lipid contents (r2 = 0.90 and 0.76 for farmed and wild turbots, respectively) was observed
