The aims of our study were to evaluate the effect of different protein supplements on fatty acid (FA) composition (%), profile (ratios and indices), etc. of carcass in lambs fed iso-caloric, iso-nitrogenous and equal in PDI and Ca: P ratio high- concentrate rations. Regional breed (Bulgarian Synthetic Dairy Population) lambs were fed cereal-based diets with different protein supplement - control diet with sunflower meal (SFM) or a DDGSc diet containing dried distillers’ corn grains with solubles (DDGSc). Animals were slaughtered after 87-d feedlot period. Fat tissue extracted from carcass was analyzed for FA profile. There were significantly higher (p< 0.01) performance (FBW= 38.90 vs. 35.1 kg and HCW= 5.24 vs. 4.67 kg) of DDGSc diet on lamb performance. Feeding 37.6 % (DM basis) DDGSc significantly increased the content of C18:2 (p< 0.05) but decreased n3 PUFA and total long chain n3 FA (p< 0.05) compared with control group. DDGSc increased n6 (p= 0.06), PUFA (p= 0.07) and PUFA / SFA ratio (p= 0.10), but decreased MUFA (p= 0.10). Examined relationships between ingested FA and carcass FA in slaughtered lambs shows good parity and are characterized with significant Pearson’s correlation coefficients (R> 0.56). In regards to obtained results, dietary DDGS inclusion altered the fatty acid profile and indices of lipids of lamb carcass.
