The presence of heavy metals in the environment could constitute a hazard to food security and public health. These can be accumulated in aquatic animals such as fish. Samples of four popular brands of canned fish in the Iranian market (yellowfin tuna, common Kilka, Kawakawa and longtail tuna) were analyzed for level of Cr after wet digestion with acids using graphite furnace atomic absorption ...

The quality of minced kilka (Clupeonella cultriventris caspia) with gum arabic encapsulated (0.3% and 0.5% w/w) and unencapsulated fennel extract (FE) (0.3% and 0.5% w/w) stored at 4°C was examined over a storage period of 15 days. The control and the treated fish samples were analyzed periodically for microbiological (total viable count [TVC] and total psychrotrophic count [TPC]) and chemical ...

Common kilka Clupeonella cultriventris (Nordmann, 1840) is a brackish water and small pelagic fish species and is one of the most abundant fishes that live gregariously in the Caspian Sea. A total of 60 specimens of adult common kilka were sampled from two seasons. Fifteen pairs of microsatellites previously developed for A.sapidissima, C. pallasi, C.harengus, and S. pilchardus were tested for ...

the objective of the present study was to determine chemical composition and fatty acid profile of common kilka ,clupeonella cultriventris caspia, in the caspian sea. the chemical analysis revealed that the protein and lipid content of common kilka were 15.05 and 6.5% of the fresh weight, and total mufa, pufa and sfa were found to be 37.00, 32.89 and 29.03% respectively. palmitic acid (16:0) am...

Background: Antioxidant activities of plant extracts are being studied to increase the shelf life of fish products. Some plants such as Urtica dioica L. (nettle) can be a good source of antioxidants. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of hydroalcoholic and water extracts of nettle leaf on the chemical properties of superchilled minced meat of the common kilka fish (Clupeone...

the present research aimed to study the growth and reproductive parameters of common kilka clupeonella caspia in southern caspian sea in 2010. after measuring the length and weight of 3774 samples, they were dissected, sex determined and female gonads were weighed. sexual maturity classification was carried out based on six stages. age was determined using sagitta otoliths. length-weight relati...

introduction: medical benefits of omega 3 fatty acids have appealeda lot of research to be done on of fish oil. among marine fish, kilka has the most industrial application. kilka oil contains significant amount of omega-3 fatty acids. in this study, physiochemical properties, fatty acid composition and stabilization of kilka oil were investigated. p- hydroxy benzoic asid, its methyl ester and ...
