EVALUATION OF PROXIMATE COMPOSITION IN FRESH AND SMOKED BONGA FISH (Ethmalosa fimbriata, Bodwich, 1825)

ABSTRACT

The analysis for the proximate composition in both fresh smoked bonga fish was carried out using standard analytical method. The result of the analysis shows that smoked fish had the highest concentration of all the analyzed parameters (%). The result thus; Fresh fish; moisture 61.24±0.030, Ash 6.22±0.105, Crude fibre 5.18±0.026, Crude protein 17.77±0.072, Crude fat 2.35±0.025, Carbohydrate 7.25±0.08, Caloric value 121.19±0.361 and smoked bonga fish: Moisture 8.38±0.029, Ash 11.09±0.078, Crude fibre 8.95±0.196, Crude protein 56.53±0.175, Crude fat 19.25±0.015, Carbohydrate 4.18±0.021, Caloric value 416.12±0.615. This result reveals that during smoking of bonga fish some vital nutritional component are liberated. Hence, smoked fish is recommended for human consumption.
