Abstract
For living systems, fatty acids are very important for their functional functions. Since these fatty acids change depending on ecological factors, they are very important for living things. Therefore, in our study, it was aimed to investigate the change of fatty acids in phospholipid subclasses in muscle tissue in the reproduction period. In our study, the sexes of Alburnus mossulensis fish caught in Batman Dam Lake was determined. After the total lipid extraction from muscle tissue of both individuals, it was separated into phospholipid subclasses by thin-paper chromatography. Samples were analyzed qualitatively as % fatty acid with Gas Chromatography. When the fatty acid distribution was considered, out of the saturated ones, 16:0 in PC and PE; 18:0 in PI; 16:0 and 18:0 in PS; out of monounsaturated ones, 18:1n-9 in all subclasses; out of polyunsaturated ones, 20:5n-3 and 22:6n-3 in PC and PE; 20:4n-6, 20:5n-3 and 22:6n-3 in PI; and 22:6n-3 in PS were found as major fatty acids. When the phospholipid subclasses were taken into account, it was observed that the most one was PUFA, then SFA and the least one was monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA). Depending on 20:4n-6, the ratio of n-3/n-6 was two times lower in PI than the other subclasses.
