Title Polyunsaturated fatty acid enrichment from sardine oil by urea fractionation
and argentation chromatography
 
Creator Chakraborty, Kajal

Subject Biochemical Study
 
Description Fish and crustaceans cannot synthesize n3 and
n6 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFAs)
de novo from precursor molecules. Of these,
eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexanoic acid
(DHA), and arachidonic acid (AA) are essential in the
diet of a majority of marine finfish and crustaceans,
especially for the larvae and broodstock. PUFAs are
widely available in a large variety of marine organisms
like microalgae, polychaetes, finfish and shellfish, but
fish oil is easily available, cheap, and contain
considerable amount of PUFAs.
