Fatty-acid composition of Macrobrachium vollenhovenii in Ogun estuary, Nigeria
A study was carried out on the fatty-acid composition of Macrobrachium vollenhovenii (African river prawn) in Ogun estuary, Ogun State, Nigeria. Sexes and size groups were considered during the study. Fatty-acid analysis was done in triplicates and data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistics, analysis of variance and Duncan's multiple range tests. Fatty acids analysed which included oleic acid, linoleic acid,' stearic acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid and lauric acid were classified into saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids. All values of saturated fatty acids were higher in female (29.64%) than in male (25.50%) p< 0.05. So also the monounsaturated fatty acid also showed higher value in female (29.64%) than in male (25.50%). All fatty- acid values were higher in female M. vollenhovenii than in male. Meanwhile, myristic acid was highest in the two sexes and the combined sexes, (35.68% female), (33.14% male) and (34.74% combined sexes). The fatty-acid components were not influenced by the size of the fish. This study clearly indicated that the nutritive value of M. vollenhovenii is quite well comparable to the edible species of decapods already studied (shrimps, prawns and lobsters) and could be included in both human and livestock diets.
