Abstract
Fatty acid profiles of three major carps Catla catla, Labeo rohita and Cirrhinus mrigala found and consumed in West Bengal, India were investigated and compared to draw a conclusion on how rich they are in their fatty acid composition in their most consumed part i.e. their muscle tissues. After analysis we have found that all the three carps investigated are rich in poly unsaturated fatty acid and the major poly unsaturated fatty acids are docosahexaenoic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid and arachidonic acid. The major saturated fatty acids detected in all the three carps are palmitic acid (C16:0) and stearic acid (C18:0). Oleic acid (C18:1 n-9) is the major mono unsaturated fatty acid present in these carps. Erucic acid (C22:1 n-9), which is reported to be an antinutritional factor is present in very low concentration. Thus one can conclude that these three fish species if farmed meticulously i.e. given the proper growing conditions, can be nutritious and low cost healthy diet for the population of Bengal.
