6. Essential Fatty Acids (fish)
 Most NEAA found in marine food webs
 Essential fatty acids (to date):
– Linoleic (18:2 n-6; terrestrials; fish - not really)
– Linolenic (18:3 n-3; terrestrials; fish)
– Arachidonic (20:4 n-6; marine maybe)
– Eicosopentaenoic acid (20:5 n-3, marine)
– Docosohexaenoic (22:6 n-3, marine)
 Why? Because elongation beyond 18 carbons is very
difficult in marine fish (lack pathways)
