Abstract
The lipid content, lipid class composition, and fatty acid composition of hake (Merluccius hubbsi) liver oil was studied for a whole year. The lipid content of the liver ranged from 41 to 60%. Triacylglycerols were the main lipid class present in the oil, with a mean value of 80%. Docosahexaenoic acid was the main polyunsaturated fatty acid during the year and was twice that of the eicosapentaenoic acid content. The composition of hake liver oil makes it useful as a raw material for encapsulated pharmaceutical products.
