Among the dominant fatty acids of total lipids (Fig. 2), DHA
showed slightly higher (p b 0.05, one way ANOVA) and EPA slightly
lower (p b 0.05, one way ANOVA) contents (Fig. 2A, Table 4) and
fractions (Fig. 2B) in Brachionus-Low than in Brachionus-High. EPA
contents were relatively low in both rotifer types, leading to a
DHA:EPA ratio of 22 and 6.1 for Brachionus-Low and BrachionusHigh,
respectively.
