چکیده
Omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LC-PUFA) are essential micronutrients for aquatic consumers. Synthesized by primary producers, n-3 LC-PUFA transferred across trophic levels and may eventually end up accumulating in fish. However, if short dietary supply, fish also biosynthesize from precursors (i.e., C18-PUFA). We applied compound-specific hydrogen stable isotope analysis (CSIA) of to investigate sources metabolic processes LC-PUFA, particular docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3, DHA), common carp (Cyprinus carpio) raised semi-intensive aquaculture ponds. Carp were feeding on natural pond zooplankton benthic macroinvertebrates rich cereal-based pellet feeds C18-PUFA. Results provide isotopic evidence that obtained a significant amount lipids nitrogen added feeds, while generally acquired zooplankton. DHA retained was generated endogenously via bioconversion PUFA precursors, such as EPA. isotopically lighter than EPA likely not supplied sufficient quantities meet the physiological requirements carp. Our data show depending abundance these eutrophic ponds, farmed can obtain two different pathways; i.e., directly uptake indirectly bioconversion. This field study highlights importance supply ecosystems ability highly valuable benefiting human health.

Omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and aquaculture in perspective
In the 40 years since the essentiality of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in fish was first established by determining quantitative requirements for 18:3n-3 and 18:2n-6 in rainbow trout, essential fatty acid (EFA) research has gone through distinct phases. For 20 years the focus was primarily on determining qualitative and quantitative EFA requirements of fish species. Nutritional and bioche...
متن کاملCommon Carp, Cyprinus carpio
The common carp (Cyprinus carpio) belongs to the family Cyprinidae. In nature, carp live in the middle or lower reaches of a river with slow currents, or in marshes. Their habitats are usually weedy areas with a muddy bottom. Carp fry feed on zooplankton such as rotifers and copepods, but as they grow up they become benthic feeders, feeding on animals and other organic material. The cyprinids h...

متن کاملTissue-Specific Fatty Acids Response to Different Diets in Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio L.)
Fish depend on dietary fatty acids (FA) to support their physiological condition and health. Exploring the FA distribution in common carp (Cyprinus carpio), one of the world's most consumed freshwater fish, is important to understand how and where FA of different sources are allocated. We investigated diet effects on the composition of polar and neutral lipid fatty acids (PLFA and NLFA, respect...
