  Abstract:   The aim of this study was to develop a simple and reliable GC-MS method to compare the fatty acids in trout plasma and meat. The lipids were extracted from 0.5 mL of plasma and 1 g of meat using chloroform: methanol 1:2 (v:v) and then derivatized into fatty acids methyl esters (FAMEs) by esterification with methanol: acetyl chloride 4:1 (v:v). For FAMEs quantitation, undecaenoic acid (C11:1) was used as internal standard. High proportions of unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs) were found both in plasma and in meat samples. The highest proportion of UFAs in meat samples (53%) was represented by the ω-3 fatty acids.

Keywords: DHA, EPA, essential fatty acids, FAME, GC-MS, SFA, UFA.
