Abstract
Ninety-seven samples of fish and 17 samples of shellfish from tropical waters were analysed for fat, nonsaponifiable matter (NSM) and cholesterol contents. Significant differences were noted in the cholesterol contents of the various families of fish analysed. However, the variation in the content of cholesterol was found to be not significant within the families. Higher contents of cholesterol were observed in shellfish than in fish. No correlation existed between the fat content of the fish/shellfish and the levels of cholesterol or NSM. ©
