An investigation of the lipid content and lipid composition in Atlantic salmon, pink salmon and striped catfish, obtained at the local retailers in Uppsala, Sweden
The aim of this study is to investigate the lipid content and lipid composition of fatty acids in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) and striped catfish (Pangasius hypophthalmus), obtained at the local retailers in Uppsala, Sweden. Then explore the cause of the diffe...
