Abstract
Pangasius catfish culture is widely practiced in India. It has low cost of production, fast growth rate and disease resistance, more freshness, Good market potential in interior areas, especially in restaurants and hotels but it has more fat and hence has an unusual odour, when consumed in processed form affects the marketability and further value addition Also the nutritional value of catfish lipids is low because of a small amount of n-3 family PUFA and high amount of MUFA and SFA. The SFA and Trans C18:1 MUFA can increase the risk of chronic cardiovascular diseases that affect the heart, blood vessels, and brain. An effective processing method can get rid of the fat content in Pangasius catfish fillets and provide a good source of protein foods for consumers. The present project is therefore proposed to analysis of fatty acid composition from catfish fillets.This research proposed a study of saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids from different portion of raw fillets.
