Seasonal Differences in Lipid and Fatty Acid Composition of European Eels (Anguilla anguilla, Linnaeus 1758) from Orontes River, Turkiye

Abstract

Seasonal differences in the lipid contents and fatty acid composition of European Eels (Anguilla anguilla, Linnaeus 1758) caught from the Orontes River (Hatay, Turkey) were determined. High lipid levels, as well as ω-3 and ω-6 fatty acids, are important factors in product quality. High-content lipid values of European eels from the Orontes River differed between seasons (p
