Lipids comprise a large group of chemically heterogeneous compounds. The majority have
fatty acids (FA) as part of their structure, making these compounds suitable tools to examine …

The body of work relating to the gut microbiota of fish is dwarfed by that on humans and
mammals. However, it is a field that has had historical interest and has grown significantly …

Marine ecosystems are rich in “omega-3” long-chain (C 20-24) polyunsaturated fatty acids
(LC-PUFA). Their production has been historically accepted to derive mostly from marine …

Plastic is regarded as a major environmental concern. In particular, nanoplastics and
microplastics (NMPs) are attracting global attention due to their potential impact on aquatic …

Omega-3 fatty acids, one of the key building blocks of cell membranes, have been of
particular interest to scientists for many years. However, only a small group of the most …

Microalgae are the primary producers of carbon in marine ecosystems, fixing carbon and
subsequently generating various biomolecules such as carbohydrates, proteins and lipids …

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 …

The red seaweed group (Rhodophyta) is one of the phyla of macroalgae, among the groups
Phaeophyceae and Chlorophyta, brown and green seaweeds, respectively. Nowadays, all …

Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) are major components of complex lipid
molecules and are also involved in numerous critical biological processes. Studies …

Diverse health benefits are associated with dietary consumption of omega-3 long-chain
polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 LC-PUFA), particularly docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and …
