Abstract :This paper presents biochemical content such as fatty acids, sterols, total protein, lipophilic vitamins, and antioxidant parameters of mixed cladoceran samples insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Daphnia sp., Diaphanosoma brachyurum); in the freshwater ecosystem. Results indicated that predominant fatty acids were 20:5n3 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(19.85%);, 16:1n7 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(17.29%);, 16:0 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(13.1%);, 24:0 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(12.55%);, 18:0 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(10.68%); and 18:1n9 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(7.99%);. Cholesterol was the principal sterol insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(194.1 µg/g); in cladocerans. Total protein was calculated as 52.26 µg/g in cladocerans. α-tocopherol insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(vitamin E); was the most important vitamin insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(4.6 µg/g); among lipophilic vitamins. Glutathione insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(GSH); was quite high insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(450µg/g); than MDA insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(11.5 nmol/g);.
