Abstract
A meta-analysis was carried out on 41 selected studies to obtain more reliable results about the
influence of some nutritional factors on conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in milk fat. Data were analysed with a linear
mixed model, including the study as random variable, that highlighted a significant effect on milk CLA content
of fat source and the physical form of the lipid supplement used in the diet. The content of fat in the diet and the
forage/concentrate ratio seem do not have significant effects
