to determine the amount of food amino acid and to spend time in the laboratories are expensive & time-consuming due to a chemical analysis. in the current laboratories, digestion nirs method is widely used for this purpose. but this method has technical limitation. therefor is important find appropriate method for estimate amount of amino acids. artificial neural network (ann) can provide a bet...

In the present study, we identified free amino acid (FAA) contents and chemical composition in four populations of Salmo trutta macrostigma living in Mediterranean region of Turkey. In addition, taste impacts of FAAs were evaluated by taste active values. Moisture, protein, fat and ash content were found in the ranges of 75.49 - 79.59 %, 16.94 - 19.97 %, 1.58 - 3.75 % and, 1.39 - 1.56 %, respec...
