Description
In this study, fatty acid profiles in farmed great sturgeon Huso huso were determined and results compared with those of other farmed sturgeon species. C18:1, C18:2, C16:0, C18:3, and C18:0 were the main fatty acids found in great sturgeon flesh and represented approximately 88% of total fatty acids. Monounsaturated fatty acids were the most dominant class of fatty acids, followed by polyunsaturated and saturated fatty acids. The n-6 fatty acids represented a higher content than n-3 counterparts, giving an n-3/n-6 ratio of 0.28. As compared with other farmed sturgeons, the percentage of n-3 essential fatty acids, such as eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic, were lower in beluga.
