Lipid contents and fatty acid compositions of 16 kind sea algaes in the southern sea coast of Korea were analyzed to evaluate nutrient signigicance of total polyene, n-3 polyenes and n-6 polyene fatty acids. Total lipid contents were 0.58~3.00% in 9 kinds of brown algaes, 0.47~2.16% in 5 kinds of red algaes and 0.55~2.99% in 2 kinds of green algeas. N-3 polyenes and n-6 polyenes of the fatty acid compositions were 1.46~25.67% and 0~48.51% in the brown algaes, 1.17~21.91% and 0.28~29.35% in the red algaes, and 3.67%~10.61% and 4.10~8.66% in the green algaes, respectirely. the fatty acid contents and compositions of n-3 polyenes and n-6 polyenes, monoenes and saturates were vary different in the algae groups and sepecies.
