Effects of dietary vegetable, animal and marine lipids on muscle lipid and hematology of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

TL;DR: Hematological tests revealed oxidative stress caused by the OMP-1 diet, as measured by hemolysis, while hematocrit and percent hemoglobin values fell within a narrow range across diet groups, suggesting that a physiologically optimum level of long chain fatty acids is maintained in rainbow trout.

Diet of northern bottlenose whales inferred from fatty-acid and stable-isotope analyses of biopsy samples

TL;DR: Remote biopsy samples from free-ranging bottlenose whales off Nova Scotia and studies of this species' diet elsewhere in the North Atlantic Ocean have suggested specialization on the deep-sea squid Gonatus fabricii suggest that squid of the genus Gonatus may form a major part of the diet of bottlenosed whales in the Gully.

The “basic” fatty acid composition of atlantic fish oils: Potential similarities useful for enrichment of polyunsaturated fatty acids by urea complexation

TL;DR: Calculation shows that the remaining fatty acids are a “basic” composition for these fish oils, with similar totals for saturated (14:0, 16:0), monounsaturated (16:1, 18:1) and polyunsaturated (primarily n-3) fatty acids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Seafood lipids and fatty acids

TL;DR: The bioavailability of different forms of omega‐3 fatty acids attached to glycerol, or sold as ethyl esters or free fatty acids, must be addressed and the absorption and distribution in the body of various forms of fatty acids is outlined.

Characteristics of the fatty acid composition and biochemistry of some fresh-water fish oils and lipids in comparison with marine oils and lipids.

TL;DR: The fatty acid composition of oils from four North American fresh-water fish were compared with recent data for oils from two marine species, suggesting a basic difference in dietary availability of these two acids.

Fatty acid content and composition of freshwater finfish

TL;DR: The anterior ventral regions of trout and salmon contained more lipids than the posterior dorsal sections, and significant quantities of ω6 C18:2 and C20:4 fatty acids were found in several species.

A simple method for the determination of cholesterol and some plant sterols in fishery‐based food products

TL;DR: In this article, an efficient method for the micro determination of cholesterol and some plant sterols such as brassicasterol, campesterol, stigmasterol, and β-sitosterol is presented.

On the origin of pristane in marine organisms

TL;DR: Phytol-U-(14)C was adsorbed on algae and ingested in this form by zooplanktonic copepods (two species of Calanus) and is interpreted as a likely biological source of pristane in nature.
