DHA Accumulation in the Polar Lipids of the Euryhaline Copepod Pseudodiaptomus inopinus and Its Transfer to Red Sea Bream Pagrus major Larvae

The euryhaline copepod Pseudodiaptomus inopinus play important roles in coastal waters as vectors of docosahexanoic (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic (EPA) acids for larval fish. While DHA and EPA in polar lipids (PLs) are more effective for fish larval development than non-polar lipid forms (NLs), there i...
