要約

The quantitative and qualitative content of sterols in mollusks (Mytilus) cultivated at experimental-commercial farms in coastal Black Sea regions of Crimea and Odessa, as well as in products of their processing (forcemeat, paste, and broth) were studied. It was demonstrated that cultured mollusks and their processed products, especially forcemeat, contained much more sterols than mussels grown under natural conditions. As a result, they can be recommended for obtaining the biologically active lipids and lipid-like substances for developing the widely used preparations.
