Abstract

The proximate composition and the fatty acid profile of keeled mullet (Liza carinata) caught off the Yumurtalik Bay located on the North-East Mediterranean Sea were investigated. The average crude protein content of keeled mullet was found to be 17.18%, while the lipid content was determined as 1.53 %. The percentages of total saturated fatty acids (SFA), monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) and the polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) were found as 41.64%, 16.78% and 26.96 %, respectively. Palmitic acid, stearic acid and lignoceric acid among the saturated fatty acids; palmitoleic acid and oleic acid among the monounsaturated fatty acids; and arachidonic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) among the polyunsaturated fatty acids, were identified as the major fatty acids. The average EPA content was 10.99% whereas the average DHA content was 8.48%
