Paper Summary

The researchers studied the chemical composition of common carp muscle tissue and feed to improve the quality of aquaculture products. They found that the cholesterol content in carp muscle varied between April and June. The fatty acid content in the feed correlated with the fatty acid content in the carp muscle. The analysis showed distinct groups of data based on the sampling time.
