Lipid classes and fatty acid composition in two parasitic copepods Peroderma cylindricum and Lernaeocera lusci and their respective fish hosts Sardina pilchardus and Merluccius merluccius from the Tunisian waters
Abstract:The present study investigates the detailed lipid classes and their fatty acid (FA) compositions from two parasitic copepods Lernaeocera lusci and Peroderma cylindricum and their respective fish host species Merluccius merluccius and Sardina pilchardus. The lipid classes, including phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylserine (PS), phosphatidylinositol (PI), triacylglycerol (TAG), wax ester/cholesterol ester (WE/CE), mono-diacylglycerol (MDG), and free fatty acids (FFA) were sepa… Show more
