Fatty Acids Profiling, Lipid Quality Indices and Antioxidant Properties of Some Small Indigenous Fishes of Manipur, India under Indo-Burma Biodiversity Hotspot Region

Aims: The aim of the study is to access nutritional qualities viz. fatty acids profile, lipid quality indices and antioxidant properties fish oil. present will provide information on fulfillment various small fishes.
 Study Design: was carried out during month October, 2017 February, 2018 in fishery laboratory, department Life Sciences, Manipur University, India.
 Methodology: extraction analysis were following method Metcalfe et al. 1966. are identified searching NIST database using mass spectral search program. For property extract analyzed DPPH assay described by Koleva 2002. Data SPSS package (Version 17.0).
 Results: most abundant acid (SFA) palmitic (C16:0) which followed Stearic (C18:0) undecylic (C11:0). concentration C16:0 ranged 14.67% 27.96% highest H. myitkyinae lowest G. giuris. Among monounsaturated (MUFA) Oleic (C18:1n9) Vaccenic (C18:1n11) heptadecanoic (C17:1) respectively. Docosahexanoic (DHA) Ecosapentanoic (EPA) predominant n3 all studied. index atherogenicity (AI), thrombogenicity (TI), Hypocholesterolemic/ Hypercholesterolemic (HH) ratio Flesh (FLQ) 0.79% 1.10%, 0.13% 0.67%, 0.53%- 2.53% 1.90% 7.72% found P. chola (8.69 µg/ml) observed T. burmanicus (46.83 µg/ml).
 Conclusion: From above Small indigenous freshwater fishes (SIFFs) contained good enormous amount PUFA MUFA especially DHA EPA contribute health related benefit. scavenging activities SIFFs also be considerable. Thus it can indicates that these have bring many benefits human health.
