The aim of this work was to evaluate the occurrence of cholesterol oxidation products and to analyze the lipidic profile in salted-dried shrimp. Fifty samples of salted-dried shrimp were evaluated, and the cholesterol oxides (7 beta-OH, 7 alpha-OH, 7-Keto and 25-OH) were quantified by high-performance liquid chromatography. The cholesterol oxides: 7 beta-OH (34.63-72.56 mu g/g), 7 alpha-OH (5.02-12.12 mu g/g), 7-Keto (7.44-32.68 mu g/g) and 25-OH (2.37-22.88 mu g/g) were determined in all samples analyzed. Regarding to the total cholesterol content and the average thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) content, the results ranged from 73.88 to 247.69 mg/100 g, and 0.02 to 1.30 mgMA/kg, respectively. The fatty acids profile was: 27.48% saturated, 43.90% monounsaturated and 28.61% polyunsaturated. The presence of cholesterol oxidation products and the values of TBARS indicate the degree of oxidation of this product, which was probably initiated by inadequate conditions of processing and storage.
