Title Seasonal variation in lipid composition of oil sardine (sardinella longiceps)
 
Names Gopakumar, K.
Date Issued 1965 (iso8601)
Abstract Seasonal variation in the amounts of triglycerides, phospholipids, unsaponifiable matter and cholesterol in the lipids of Sardinella longiceps was investigated. As a % muscle wet weight, the phospholipid content shows little seasonal change but as a % total lipids remarkable variation is shown. It bears an inverse relationship to triglyceride content. The amounts of unsaponifiable matter and cholesterol in the total lipids are high in May-June, when the total lipid content is low. The increase in phospholipid as a % total lipid in April-June is accompanied by an increase in unsaponifiable matter and cholesterol.
