Proximate composition and non-protein nitrogen (NPN) were determined in eight freshwater and eight marine fish species which are commonly consumed in Thailand. Appropriate household cooking methods, i.e., boiling, steaming, roasting and frying were used for fish preparation. All fresh fish investiga

Three Nigerian freshwater Γshes were analysed for their proximate and mineral composition. Oreochromis niloticus, Clarias lazera and Mormyrus rume are classiΓed as being in the low-fat class. Oreochromis niloticus has the highest mineral content.

Proximate composition, selected mineral (Zn, Fe, Cd, As, Hg, Pb, Ni, Cu) content and fatty acid proΓles were determined in some widely consumed Γsh species obtained from the Black Sea. All Γsh species analysed individually were fairly high in protein (14Γ1Γ25Γ1%) and lipid (7Γ4Γ18Γ4%). Moisture and
This study was carried out to determine the cholesterol and fatty acids in muscle tissue ("let) of three in natura species of Brazilian "shes Brycon cephalus (matrinxa ), B. microlepis (piraputanga) and B. orbignyanus (piracanjuba). The non-native "shes were collected in farms (cultured in pond and
