  The aims of this study were to characterize the lipids isolated from Pangasius pangasius and Pangasius sutchi and to analyze the nutrient contents of these fishes. The specific gravity, refractive index and viscosity co-efficient were (0.97 ± 0.01 and 0.94 ± 0.02 at 30°C), (4.88 ± 0.25 and 5.49 ± 0.30 at 30°C) and (448.96 ± 2.5 and 421.76 ± 2.1) for P. pangasius and P. sutchi, respectively. Likewise, Chemical characterization of lipids of both fishes has shown the significance results. Besides, P. pangasius and P. sutchi contained carbohydrate, protein, cholesterol and lipids of 1.89 ± 0.35% and 0.75 ± 0.11%, 35 ± 2.1% and 38.37 ± 2.5%, 17.46 ± 1.15% and 13.79 ± 0.37%, and 10.01 ± 1.11% and 6.16 ± 0.54%, consecutively. The percentages of moisture, dry matter and ash were found in fair amounts. Furthermore,.. View More»
