Description 206-210
Fatty acids of Sardinella longiceps and Sardinella fimbriata of Cochin coast, in four
seasonal catches, were profiled and compared. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) were the most abundant; EPA dominating in
S. longiceps, and DHA in S. fimbriata. Concentrations were also
observed to change with season and diet. These variations are complementary,
therefore nutritional and pharmaceutical industries using both species in
tandem as PUFA sources are expected to be more sustainable round the year.
