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...

kilka fish are known as the main industrial and pelagic species of iran that are captured abundantly in the southern caspian sea. this study was conducted to survey the effectiveness of refinement steps on kilka (clupeonella delicatula) crude oil quality and fatty acid profiles. neutralization, bleaching, winterization and deodorization were performed on crude oil with deodorization done under ...

Fish Protein Concentrate (FPC) is a healthy, sustainable and high nutritive product that produced from fish and protein and other nutrients are more concentrated than in the fresh fish. The aim of this research is to study the sustainability of FPC produced from Kilka (combination of three Caspian Sea Kilka species, Clupeonella engrauliformis, C. grimmi and C. cultriventris which were not ident...

In current study, protein hydrolysates were produced using microbial proteases of Alcalase, Protamex and Flavourzyme from by-products (head, skin and viscera) of Alosa (Alosa caspia), a major Clupeonella species in the Caspian Sea. The results indicated that the protein hydrolysate from Alcalase, had the highest protein content (78.91%), protein recovery (80.42%) and degree of hydrolysis (21.06...

The present work was conducted to investigate the chemical composition (amino acid, mineral content, and lipid profile) of bones from three different Iranian pelagic fish species. The biochemical composition of Sardinella gibbosa, Clupeonella engrauliformis and Stolephorus indicus bones captured from the Iranian Ocean (the Oman Sea and Caspian Sea) were determined. The analysis of amino acids a...

The big eye kilka, Clupeonella grimmi, is a marine fish living in depth of 20 to 200 meter of the Caspian Sea. Its eye and retina were processed for histological and SEM studies. Paraffin embedded retina was cut radially and tangentially in 5 ?m thickness and stained with hematoxylin and eosin method. The unstained sections were manipulated for SEM image observations. Tangential retinal sect...
