The article presents the gas chromatographic analysis of fatty acids of African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) raised in the aquaculture conditions of Uzbekistan. Fish also contains significant amounts of all essential amino acids, especially lysine, which cereals are relatively poor in. Therefore, fish protein can be used to supplement the amino acid composition and improve the overall protein quality of mixed diets. The study showed that the fish contains mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids such as oleic (C18:1-9 cis), linoleic (C18:2), eicosapentaenoic (C20:5), docosapentaenoic (C22:5). The ratio of ω-6/ω-3 PUFAs is 3:1, which is optimal for preventive nutrition. The data shows a high potential for using African catfish in dietary and functional nutrition.
