Abstract:Research was conducted on topmouth culter (Culter alburnus) grown in ponds and lakes as well as wild types in order to determine their chemical composition and nutritional value. There are three types of fish that differ in their proximate composition, amino acids, fatty acids, and minerals. Wild fish had a significantly lower crude lipid contents than cultured fish (P < 0.05), but a higher protein content. Aside from histidine and proline, wild and cultured fish have similar amino acid compositions. A signifi… Show more
