kutum, rutilus frisii kutum, is an commercially important fish in the caspian sea. the fish enters the rivers leading to the caspian sea for spawning. one of these rivers is shiroud river. in the artificial propagation process of kutum, different factors are involved in quality and quantity of female broods eggs and also in the best temperature and migration time for spawning. the influence of ...

all of the food products are required to be packaged due to hygienic regard, storage, suitable transportation and preservation of quality and vacuum packaging is one of the prevention methods of spoilage. hence in this study, some of the quality factores changes of rutilus frissi kutum fillets storaged in vacuum and air packages were examined during 18 days in ice alike total volatile base-nitr...

this study investigates the effects of replacement of fish oil by sunflower oil and colsa oil as the vegetable oils, on growth and nutrition performance and survival rate of  rutilus frissi kutum with initial average weight 3.65±0.39 g over 8 weeks. three diets were supplemented with 8.5% of either fish oil (control), sunflower oil, and colsa oil, respectively in triplicates. after the experime...

The objective of the current study was determined chemical composition (including protein, lipid, ash and moisture) and content of minerals (Zn, Mn, Fe, Cu, Cr, Ca, Na, Mg, Mo, P, Se, K, I and F) in five fish species from the South Caspian Sea. The chemical analysis revealed that the protein content of common kilka, Caspian kutum, common carp, pike perch and golden grey mullet was 18.35%, 21.39...
