| Abstract: | The fatty acid composition of three freshwater sponges—Ephydatia syriaca, Nudospongilla sp., andCortispongilla barroisi—were studied. Twenty principal fatty acids, and unusually high levels of eicosatetraenoic (5,8,11,14–20:4 up to 10.1% of
the total acid mixture), eicosapentaenoic (5,8,11,14,17–20:5 up to 11.6%), and docosahexaenoic acids (4,7,10,13,16,19–22:6
up to 11.8%) were detected. The only demospongic acid found was 5,9,17-hexacosatrienoic acid (1.8–3.7%). |
