dc.description.abstractProximate composition (ash, moisture, total protein, and fat contents) and fatty acid profile of Balistes capriscus (grey triggerfish) were assessed over a 6-months period (April to September, 2011) in animals captured along the coast of Peniche (Portugal). High protein (18.9% to 21.4%) and low lipid (0.5% to 0.8%) contents were determined. The highest lipid level was found in June-captured animals. High proportions of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA) were observed (53.87 ± 2.00%) together with substantial quantities of oleic acid (27.58 ± 1.09%) and palmitic acid (16.52 ± 0.93%). Docosahexaenoic acid accounted for 77% of the total PUFA and was 7 times more abundant than eicosapentaenoic acid, and the n-3/n-6 ratio was 7.2. Gender did not influence lipid levels and the fatty acid profile, but seasonal variations were observed for PUFA and monounsaturated fatty acid contents. Overall, the nutritional properties of this underexploited species may be comparable to those of other lean fish species with higher economic value. Practical Application: Balistes capriscus is an abundant species in the Atlantic and underexploited in the Eastern Atlantic coast, with very few studies reported. This study was aimed to add commercial value to the species through its nutritional evaluation. B. capriscus is characterized by high protein and low fat contents. High proportions of n-3 PUFA, mainly docosahexaenoic acid, were noted for the grey triggerfish. Nutritional properties of this species may be comparable to those of other lean fish species.eng
