Abstract

Total lipid content, total lipid fatty acids, lipid classes and their fatty acid compositions were studied in eggs of gilthead sea bream from two different broodstocks.The two broodstock diets used had the same total lipid content, but differed with respect to their fatty acid levels. The lipid class composition of eggs from different origins was not significantly different. The predominant polar lipids were phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine and sphingomyelin, and the main neutral lipid classes were cholesterol esters and triacylglycerols.The fatty acid composition of total lipids and main lipid classes in the two groups of eggs showed marked differences, reflecting the influence of fatty acid levels in the broodstock diets.
