Odessa Division of the Institute of Biology of the Southern Seas, Academy of Sciences of the UkSSR I!J () rr.; e 7: C) d*'-' () E (;) '' CI 15.1 e;j: The scarcity of information in the literature concerning the lipid composition of marine fish prompted us to conduct an investigation of the lipid composition in the muscle tissue, liver and roe of six species of fish: bonefish, bronze sea bass, notched grunt, sea bream, drepane and flatfish. The biological description and data'obtained about the relative weight of their gonads and livers are given in table 1. For most of the fish investigated, the roe and milt were at the IV - V stages of ripeness and comprised no more than 3.6% of the total weight of the fish. The liver did not exceed 1% of the fish weight. Table 2 contains data on the amount of dry matter and free fat extracted on ether by the Soxlet method, and also the total amount of all the lipids extracted from. the muscle tissue, roe and liver of the fish using the Folch method. It can be seen from the table that the /79 amount of free fat and total lipid content in the muscles of different fish species fluctuates between significant limits. It is very characteristic 33..2..-31

When the amountsof free fat and ail the lipids in the muscles and liver of sea bass and flatfish of different sexes were compared, no essential difference was detected. In the liver of the bronze sea bass the ether-soluble (free) fats comprise about one third of all the lipids, while in the liver of the sea bream and flatfish they make up about one half. The amount of dry matter in the muscles of all the fish investigated is about double that in the liver. The lipids extracted from the muscles and liver of the fish by the Folch method were divided into fractions by thin layer chromatography. Quantitative interpretation of the chromatograms was done on the MF-4 spectrophotometer. The results are shown in table 3.

4 The composition of the lipids extracted frdm fish liver was found to contain phospholipids, mono- and diglycerides, cholesterol, free fatty acids, triglycerides, vitamin A, sterol esters, carbohydrates and some unidentified substances. The composition of the muscle lipids was found to be poorer, they included phospholipids, cholesterol, free fatty acids, triglycerides, carbohydrates and some unidentified substances. It is possible that some of the other lipid fractions. found in liver are also present in the muscles, but in very small quantities and were not detected in these experimental conditions. Table 3 shows that the liver and muscles of the investigated fish are characterized by high phospholipid and cholesterol content, the proportion of which in muscles is from 54.6 to 81.9% of the total lipids; and in the liver of different fish, with the exception of flatfish, it is 34.5 to 62.2% (26.7% in flatfish liver). The high content of triglycerides in fish liver is also noted; they comprise from 26.7 to 37.4% of the total lipids, bonefish excluded, the lipid composition in the liver of which was found to be 8.5% triglycerides. The muscles of most of the fish investigated were found /8 to contain insignificant amounts of triglycerides, and only in bonefish and notched grunt did they comprise respectively 17.2 and 12.% of all lipids. The free fatty acids in the composition of muscles lipids was significantly greater (from.9.8 to 25.4%) than in liver (2.5 to 7.8%). Considering the intensity of metabolic processes taking place in the liver, it is easily understood why it contains fractions that are completely absent from the muscles, or else are thenain insufficient quantities, such as the mono- and diglycerides, vitamin A, and sterol esters.
