On the Yellowtail Oil-X. Cerebrone Sulfuric Ester in Meat

Abstract

In the ordinary and the red meats of “Higan-Buri” (yellowtail, Seriola quinqueradiata, caught in spring), it was found that the yields (%) of cerebrone sulfuric ester (CSE) from the Ted meat was higher than that from the ordinary one, and the unsaturation of component fatty acids of CSE from the former was higher than that from the latter. In both types of meat, a main sugar of CSE was galactose while a minor one, glucose. © 1962, The Japanese Society of Fisheries Science. All rights reserved.
