The study of cholesterol and triglycerides of these types of fish showed that the cholesterol levels in the experimental fish were (104.55-9.56 -6.37-9.56 -14.88-51.03-15.94) mg/100 g in the mentioned fish, respectively, and the highest level of cholesterol was in the Carasobarbus luteus fish and it reached 104.55 mg /100gm, and the lowest level in Cyprinion kais is 6.37mg/100gm. The study stated the levels of triglycerides are (990 -348 -993.5 -665.9 -703.5 -1355.2-882.2) mg/kg for fish (Carasobarbus luteus, Alburnus mossulensis, Cyprinion kais, Chondrostoma regium, Barbus barbulus, Barbus belayewi, Barbus subquincunciatus) respectively. The highest level of triglycerides is 1355.2 mg/kg. kg in Barbus belayewi fish and the lowest level in Alburnus mossulensis 348 mg/kg.
