Abstract

The comparison on the fatty acid compositions of one marine fishes Rastrelliger
kanagurta and one freshwater fish Monopterus albus in two different locations
which is Kelantan and Pahang with different environmental factor were studied.
Result showed that the lipid content of Monopterus albus is 8.36% in Kelantan
and 0.84% in Pahang. Whereas, lipid content of Rastrelliger kanagurta is 9.69%in
Kelantan 1.60% in Pahang. In the fatty acid analysis, it was discovered that the
major fatty acid in the oil from the Rastrelliger kanagurta, between Kelantan and
Pahang recorded the highest PUFA specifically DHA and EPA regarding to
nutritional aspect with 48.51% and 48.33% followed by freshwater species,
Monopterus albus (eel) members between Kelantan and Pahang with 13.32% and
6.32% respectively
