Aproveitamento e características da gordura cavitária do tambaqui, Colossoma macropomum Cuvier 1818 ()

Abstract: Resumo O presente trabalho refere-se a um estudo da gordura cavitária do Colossoma macropomum, com relação às características físicas e químicas e seu potencial como gordura de cozinha. Este peixe de água doce é conhecido na região amazônica com o nome de tambaqui. As amostras foram coletadas em quatro épocas: julho e outubro de 1977 e fevereiro e abril de 1978. As análises revelaram que a gordura do tambaqui se assemelha mais à gordura e óleos animais e vegetais, do que a óleos de peixe de água salgada. A est… Show more

“…In the abdominal cavity fat, the main fatty acids in decreasing order in the three capture situations were oleic, palmitic, stearic and linoleic, results similar to those described by Castelo and Rodriguez-Amaya. 4 In the muscle of fish captured in the dry season, the eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) contents were higher, explained by the fact that the tambaqui is an omnivorous species, and during the dry season 58% of its feed is zooplankton. 3 According to Henderson and Tocher, 24 zooplankton is a rich source of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA).…”

“…Large size with a deep, thick body, and large internal cavity, has also made it possible for C. macropomum to store considerable quantities of fat during the period when it is in the floodplain forests feeding on fruits and seeds. The visceral fat reserves of C. macropomum account alone for about 10 percent of total body weight subsequent to the floods (Castelo, Amaya & Strong, 1980). Muscle and head fat represent at least another five percent (Castelo, pers.…”
