Biochemical Composition of Nemipterus japonicus and Nemipterus mesoprion in Relation to Maturity Cycle
76 / 29
Keywords:
Biochemical composition, maturity cycles, Nemipterus japonicus, Nemipterus mesoprion.Abstract
The biochemical compositon of Nemipterus japonicus and N. mesoprion was studied in different maturity stages. In both the species, the muscle had more fat and soluble protein during the immature phase. Early stages of maturation, hence offer greater food value in these species. With the advancement of maturity a drop in the fat and soluble protein was observed, whereas a linear relationship with moisture was noted from immature to mature stage. The composition ofmuscle always demonstrated an inverse relationship with hepatic and gonadal composition.Downloads
