Labeo Bata

The study was designed to investigate the effects of freezing periods and the combination of packaging with or without turmeric on the proximate composition of whole and sliced Labeo bata. The samples were subjected to 28 days of frozen (-20 °C) storage periods and analyzed for proximate composition such as moisture, protein, lipid and ash at intervals of 0, 14 and 28 days. Data obtained was subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) at 95% significant level. Different preservation periods and methods significantly affected the nutritional composition of fresh fish. Moisture, protein, lipid and ash content decreased with increasing storage periods when compared to the fresh fish as control. The highest percentage of protein was found in turmeric-treated whole fish preserved in polythene, C4, after the 14th (15.70±0.14) and 28th (15.27±0.21) day. On the other hand, the lowest percentage (14.01±0.10 and 13.22±0.18 for the 14th and 28th day, respectively) was found in sliced fish preserved without polythene, C5. In conclusion, the turmeric-treated whole fish preserved in polythene retained fish nutrients and ensured its good quality and composition longer than other treatments, thereby extending the shelf life during frozen storage.

This study investigated the effects of culinary methods (boiling and frying) on the proximate composition of an edible insect commonly known as African Palm Weevil (R. phoenicis) Larva(e). The proximate composition (moisture, ash, protein, crude fibre, fat and carbohydrate contents) were determined using standard methodology of the Association of Analytical Chemists (AOAC). Boiling increased the moisture and ash content but, decreased the protein, fat, carbohydrate (p0.05) and the fibre content compared to the raw sample. On the other hand, frying increased the protein and ash contents (p 0.05) but decreased the moisture, fat, carbohydrate and fibre contents compared to the raw. The decrease in moisture content led to a corresponding increase in the protein, and ash contents of the fried sample, which indicates high protein and mineral levels of the larvae. Also, the lowest moisture content recorded in the fried sample compared to the raw and boiled sample was an indication of reduction of microbial spoilage, and longer storage shelf life of this edible larva. Therefore, frying is recommended as the best culinary method for healthy diet.

The study was conducted in aims to investigate the effects of frozen storage and cooking conditionson proximate compositions and formaldehyde content (FA) in some selected fish from three different sourcesin Bangladesh. Proximate composition in fresh and final frozen samples was determined by standard AOACmethod and FA content in fresh, frozen stored, and cooked samples was determined by spectrophotometricmethod. Among the studied fishes, marine fish contained higher protein (except Rita), lipid, and ash followedby estuarine and culture fish samples. Protein, moisture and ash content decreased and lipid content increasedsignificantly (p<0.05) during frozen storage for all samples and sources. The FA was lower in cultured fishsamples compared to that of the river and marine fish samples, both at fresh and end of frozen storage. Atfresh condition, FA content in all samples ranged from 0.41 to 0.71µg/g, 0.51 to 0.89µg/g, and 0.73 to1.69µg/g which increased to 0.95 to 2.11µg/g, 1.74 to 1.95µg/g, and 3.22 to 5.20µg/g at end of the storageperiod, respectively (p<0.05). Further, FA content significantly decreased after cooking in all the fishsamples (p<0.05). However, irrespective of fish species and sources, the FA content was higher than WHOrecommended value (0.2 µg/g). The study findings revealed that longer frozen storage of fish could be apublic health concern to the consumers.

Fish meat is a common and broadly used food due to its high nutritional values yet the bones and flavour of fresh fish can be unpleasant. The unpleasant fishy flavour makes it difficult to handle and process. The fishy flavour is as a result of microbial presence and growth. Studies associated with microbial contaminations have concentrated more on the carcass. Such contaminations which affect the microbiological status of processed products can emanate from spices and other non-meat ingredients, environment, equipment and handlers. The successful application of processing/preservation technology results in the conservation of desirable qualities in stabilized and varietal fish products. This study sought to use fish in the manufacture of frankfurter-type sausages, which could have improved preservation characteristics without any adverse effects on sensory properties. The nutritional composition and microbiological safety of fresh fish and sausages were determined using the methods described by AOAC and ICMSF respectively. The study showed that, catfish sausages were higher in protein (15.69 %) and were lower in fat (10.66%) compared to the other sausages. Total Viable Counts (TVC) were within the accepted limits (106 and 107cfu/g) for fish and pork respectively. E. coli was not detected in any of the treatments during frozen storage for 6 weeks. It was concluded that catfish frankfurter has high nutritive value because it contained less fat but with higher crude protein. Like pork frankfurters, both catfish and mackerel sausages could be stored for six weeks without any negative effects on microbial quality.

A study was conducted to evaluate the proximate composition of fresh and salt-boiled prawn stored at -200 C. The study was focused on comparative study on proximate composition, nutritional status and quality of the prawn in wet matter basis. The collected fresh prawns were boiled in 2.5% brine for 15 minutes followed by freezing at -200 C to evaluate the quality of prawns at 16 weeks period of frozen storage. The sample was stored separately in individual boxes for every experimental uses. The proximate composition of the sample during frozen storage (16 weeks) was evaluated by studying organoleptic assessments, protein, lipid, ash, moisture and TVBN. The fresh prawn during frozen storage was organoleptically accepted up to 12 weeks but unaccepted after 16 weeks of storage whereas the salt-boiled frozen prawn was remained acceptable after 16 weeks of frozen storage at -200C. The initial protein content of fresh prawn was decreased gradually with the storage period. At the end of the 16 weeks of frozen storage, initial protein content of fresh prawn was decreased from 22.36 ±0.45% to 16.24 ±0.27% and protein content of salt-boiled prawn was decreased from 29.69 ±0.28% to 22.89 ±0.29%. The initial lipidcontent of fresh prawn decreased gradually with the storage period and at the end of the 16 weeks frozen storage it decreased from 2.4±0.16% to 1.24 ±0.13% and for the salt-boiled frozen prawn it decreased from2.56 ±0.11% to 1.68 ±0.26%. The initial ash content of fresh prawn decreased gradually with the storage period and at the end of the 16 weeks frozen storage, it decreased from 2.42±0.21% to 1.52±0.23%, whereas for salt-boiled prawn it decreased from2.89 ±0.19% to 1.93 ±0.18%.The initial TVB-N content increased gradually with the storage period and at the end of the 16 weeks of frozen storage it increased from 10.23±0.26 mg/100g to 32.01±1.36 mg/100g in fresh frozen prawn, where in the salt-boiled prawn, it was increased from 8.35 ±0.28 mg/100g to16.82 ±1.09mg/100g. From the findings it can be concluded that, the quality & nutritional composition of the salt-boiled prawn remains better than that of fresh un-boiled one during long storage period. So, the process for frozen storage of salt-boiled prawn at -200 C can be considered as a new approach in fish preservation.Res. Agric., Livest. Fish.3(1): 241-250, April 2016

Pampus Argenteus

The effects of different processing methods (Frying cooking, brining and boiling) on the proximate composition of fish species (Pampus argenteus) were investigated. The objective of this work is to know the best processing methods, the effect of processing on nutritional values of fish products. The result of the proximate composition of the fish species showed that the highest protein content (38.17%) was in P. argenteus processed with the frying process. The result of moisture content indicated that boiled samples were consistently the least (25.20%) while for fried sample had the highest moisture percentage. The lipid was reduced to the least value of 9.94% in the brined fish. In cooking, the important factors for consideration are moisture, lipids, and protein, though low moisture would ensure a fish product with extended shelf life. To have a longer shelf life, high protein is desirable, a low lipid is equally desirable as to reduce oxidation and rancidity in the samples which causes off-flavor and bad taste in fish products. In conclusion, all the processing methods are good and could extend the shelf life of the products with an exception of boiling method; they could keep the fish fillet free from spoilage and microorganisms attack for some period. This study showed that the proximate values obtained could be of help in choosing fish based on nutritional values.

Protein, lipid, ash and moisture content in the body muscles of two commonly available puffer fish species in Bangladesh (Leiodon cutcutia and Dichtomyctere fluviatilis) have been analysed from January 2018 to June, 2018. The puffer fish species were collected from different habitats i.e., Leiodon cutcutia from freshwater and Dichtomyctere fluviatilis from estuarine water. The percentage of the proximate composition varied in different months in both the species. In Leiodon cutcutia, moisture content fluctuated from 79.32% to 87.61% with an average of 83.75%; protein content from 6.35% to 13.31% with an average of 9.49%; lipid content from 1.57% to 2.32% with an average of 1.92% and ash content from 2.30% to 3.27% with an average of 2.84%. In Dichotomyctere fluviatilis, moisture content fluctuated from 73.77% to 84.18% with an average of 77.49%; protein content from 10.03% to 19.77% with an average of 16.80%; lipid content from 0.92% to 1.71% with an average of 1.32% and ash content from 2.77% to 3.34% with an average of 3.05%. The comparative evaluation of the nutritional value of the studied fish species revealed that the puffer fish from estuarine environment might contain higher amount of nutrients. Thus, proper utilization of this species towards sustainable management, nutritional composition and biosecurity issues will lead to achieve sustainable blue economy. Jahangirnagar University J.

This study assessed the effects of total ochratoxins on the nutritional composition and functional properties of grain flours. The grains cowpea, sorghum, maize, groundnut, rice, millet, and acha were milled. The proximate composition, functional properties, as well as Total Ochratoxin levels, were determined. The effects of the Ochratoxins on the nutritional and functional properties of the grains were evaluated. Ochratoxin levels in grain flours ranged from 0.09 to 54.41 μg/kg and not seen in some rice samples. Most Total Ochratoxin levels found in the grains were beyond the WHO/EU/FAO permissible limit, 5.00 µg/kg. Groundnut and Cowpea have a significant high content of protein and fiber. Groundnut had the highest average fat content, 41.84 %. The ash content of the grains ranged from 0.73 to 3.61%. The presence of ochratoxins had a significant impact on the grain's carbohydrates, proteins, and fat. Their presence had moderate effects on crude fiber, ash, and functional properties and negligible effect on grain moisture.

In the present study effect of processing treatments viz. blanching and germination on the proximate composition of Pennisetum glaucum (pearl millet) was studied. Proximate composition was analysed by the standard methods determined according to Association of Official Analytical Chemists. Results indicated that moisture content increased significantly after processing treatments. Blanching resulted in non significant increase in ash content of pearl millet grains. The crude protein content of unprocessed pearl millet was 11.55%. The crude protein content of blanched pearl millet grains was 11.27%. Crude protein content of germinated grains was found to be 12.38% as in comparison to 11.55% in unprocessed and 11.27 in blanching treatment. Crude fat content of unprocessed (control), blanched and germinated pearl millet grains were 5.36, 5.09 and 4.55%, respectively. Fiber content increased significantly after blanching and germination processing treatments. Processing treatments not only effect the nutritional composition of pearl millet but also contribute towards enhancement of shelf life.

Proximate composition of chapila fish (Gudusia chapra) was determined using two different treatments of smoke-drying. In salt treated smoke-dried chapila (S-C), moisture, crude protein, lipid and ash contents were found 5.31%, 46.47%, 29.05% and 19.92% respectively. The same parameters were 6.77%, 45.24%, 30.52% and 18.71% respectively in case of salt-garlic treated smokedried chapila (S+G-C) fish. During storage at room temperature (26-320C), the percentage of moisture was increased significantly whereas crude protein, lipid and ash contents were decreased. The values of moisture (%) content were increased 9.91% (8th months) in S-C and 10.74 % (16th months) in S+G-C respectively. The values of protein (%) content were decreased 44.81% (8th months) in S-C and 42.66% (16th months) in S+G-C respectively. Values of fat and ash (%) content were decreased 28.55% and 18.01% (8th months) respectively in S-C and 28.75% and 17.34% (16th months) respectively in S+G-C. The overall study showed that the smoke cured fish treated with salt-garlic had longer shelf life and found better for preservation.Bangladesh J. Zool. 42(2): 205-209, 2014
