چکیده

The effects of two different drying methods (smoking kiln and electric oven) on nutritional properties of tilapia fish (Oreochromis nilotieus) were determined. Purchased quantities of tilapia fish were shared into two parts: one part was used to determine the nutritional properties of the raw fish and the other part was subdivided into two; a part was dried using smoking kiln at a temperature range of 70-85°C for 20 hours and the remaining one was dried using electric oven at a temperature range of 110°C for 45 minutes. The nutritional properties of the dried samples were determined. Mean moisture, protein, lipids, ash, fibre, carbohydrate, vitamin A, potassium and phosphorus contents of raw fish were 70.15±0.04, 23.06±0.04, 12.85±0.05, 28.16±0.02, 1.91±0.01, 3.67±0.04, 2.5 x 10 ±4 x10 , 1.2 x 10 ±10 and 1.2 x 10 ±10 %, respectively while the energy value 4 5 4 -5 4 5 was 5.94±0.03 J/100g and vitamin C content was 2.3 x 10 ±4 x 10 mg/ml. The changes in moisture, lipids, 3 4 energy value and vitamin A contents were found to be significant (P < 0.05) for the two drying methods. Protein, ash, fibre, carbohydrate, vitamin C, potassium and phosphorus contents showed no significant differences (P < 0.05) for the two drying methods studied. The results indicate that drying methods have effects on the nutritional properties of tilapia fish. Electric oven drying is recommended for healthy eating if reduced lipids content and increased vitamin A content are desired and also for longer shelf-life of dried fish.

The effect of black glutinous rice bran (Oryza sativa L.) in diets of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)

The effect of black glutinous rice bran inclusion used in diets of Nile tilapia was  studied in fish with an initial weight of 8.76±0.17g per fish and fed with experimental diets supplemented with black glutinous rice bran at 0 (control), 50, 100, 150 and 200 g kg-1 for 60 days. The results of phytochemical analyses of black rice bran showed that the total anthocyanin, phenolic, tannin and phyt...

Effects of frozen storage on fatty acids profile, chemical quality indices and sensory properties of Red Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus × Tilapia mosambicus) fillets

The aim of the investigation was to determine the changes in fatty acids profile and chemical quality indexes of Red Tilapia fillets during frozen storage at -18°C. The fish were filleted by hand. The prepared fillets were then placed to the polyamide pouches and stored at -18°C for 150 days. Fatty acid profile, sensory properties and chemical quality indices were determined for a five month pe...
