Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) such as chondroitin sulfate (CS), dermatan sulfate (DS), and hyaluronic acid were isolated from unused fishes and inedible parts of fish. The amountsof GAGs contained in the tissues and ratios of CS/DS differed remarkably among fish. The dorsal fin of the yellowfin sole contained more than 1300 mg of CS–DS per 100 g ofdefatted-dry tissue.
