Abstract EN

Fatty acid (FA) profiles of the species Tettigonia viridissima, Chorthippus biguttulus, and Chorthippus brunneus were determined and quantitated.

Extracted lipids were derivatized into FA methyl esters (FAMEs) prior to analysis by GC-MS.

A total of 37 different FAs were identified in T.

viridissima, yielding a total FA content of 10.4 g/100 g of dry matter.

The contents of saturated FAs, monounsaturated FAs, and polyunsaturated FAs were 31.1, 35.9, and 33.0%, respectively.

Lipids from T.

viridissima were also fractioned into neutral lipids, free fatty acids, and polar lipids by offline solid phase extraction.

For C.

brunneus and C.

biguttulus, 33 FAs were identified, yielding a total FA content of 6.14 g/100 g of dry matter.

SFAs, MUFAs, and PUFAs, respectively, constituted 32.7, 25.1, and 42.1% of the total FA content.

The contents of MUFAs, PUFAs, n-3 FAs, and n-6 FAs of each species, and the n-6/n-3 ratio, were subsequently discussed.
