The fatty acid (FA) group composition was analysed on total lipid extract 33 of HI meal, experimental diets samples and cooked muscle samples obtained from fish fed different diets. The FAs composition was determined by gas chromatography (Varian GC 430; Agilent, Palo Alto, CA, USA) equipped with a flame ionization detector and a Supelco Omegawax™ 320 capillary column (30 m 0.32 mm i.d., 0.25 μm film and polyethylene glycol bonded phase; Supelco, Bellefonte, PA, USA). FAs were identified by comparing the FAME retention time with the standard Supelco 37 component FAME mix (Supelco). Individual FAs were quantified using tricosanoic acid (C23:0) (Supelco) as internal standard. FAs were expressed as a percentage of total FAME.
Tricosanoic acid c23 0
Tricosanoic acid (C23:0) is a saturated fatty acid with 23 carbon atoms. It is a naturally occurring compound found in various plant and animal sources. Tricosanoic acid serves as a common laboratory reference standard and is used in analytical chemistry applications.

Lipid Composition Analysis of Minced Flesh
Proximate Composition and Fatty Acid Analysis
The total lipid fraction of the H prepupae meal and of the three test diets was extracted using chloroform-methanol (2:1 v:v) (Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany) mixture [45 ]. The fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) were obtained following the protocol described in Morrison and Smith [46 (link)] and quantified by gas chromatography (Varian 430-GC, FID) according to Tulli et al. [47 (link)] using tricosanoic acid (C23:0; Supelco, Bellefonte, PA, USA) as an internal standard.
The grading inclusion level of H meal resulted in an increase of total saturated fatty acids (SFA) and a decrease in total polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) percentage in the experimental diets as shown in
Lipid and Fatty Acid Analysis
Varian Inc., Palo Alto, CA, USA) and FAs were identified by comparing the FAME retention time with the standard Supelco 37 component FAME mix (Supelco). FAs were quantified through calibration curves, using tricosanoic acid (C23:0) (Supelco) as internal standard. This analysis was carried out on WF and MSM samples, but not on FB samples, because they were obtained from minced fillets and consequently considered with the same characteristics in term of FA composition.
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
