Given that surgical castration of male pigs could be abandoned, the problem of product acceptability can become critical in dry-cured hams, especially when raw material comes from conventional pig husbandry. In this study, we have investigated 16 thighs harvested from 8 entire male fatteners that were submitted to 15 months of dry-curing process. Skatole and androstenone were determined in subcutaneous fat before (n = 8) and post processing (n = 16). After 15 months of dry-curing, markedly lower fat tissue concentrations of androstenone (36%) and skatole (20%) were determined. The reduction was independent of the level of boar taint substances.
