Phospholipid Profiling of Litopenaeus Vannamei Raised in Different Environments

User Benefits

- The MRM Library for Phospholipid Profiling enables quantitative phospholipid analysis of any sample. - A phospholipid profiling method for vannamei shrimp was developed to detect 135 phospholipids. - Quantitative comparisons focusing on the fatty acids bound to phospholipids allow the identification of phospholipids specific to raising environments. - The Multi-omics Analysis Package supports searching for components with significant differences in contents.

Introduction

Litopenaeus vannamei is a shrimp species rich in nutrients, including omega-3 fatty acids and functional phospholipids such as phosphatidylserine. More than 8 million tons of vannamei shrimp are produced worldwide, about half of which comes from aquaculture. In this article, the differences in phospholipid profiling of vannamei shrimp depending on the raising environment are introduced.​ The MRM library for Phospholipid Profiling (Shimadzu Corporation) is capable of profiling 867 components of phospholipids by taking the combinations of 17 fatty acids into account. Phospholipid profiling of vannamei shrimps raised in three different environments was performed, and 135 phospholipid species in total were detected. Multivariate analysis and statistic analysis revealed several phospholipids that differed significantly by raising environment.
