Abstract Fish processing provides waste of around 50.0% to 70.0% the animal's initial weight, especially skin. Thus, this residue contains by-product that allows biopolymers be obtained, highlighting collagen, which can widely used in different areas. The present study aimed evaluate yield collagen extracted from peacock bass Cichla monoculus skin and characterize them physicochemically. Twenty-five with an average weight 646 ± 175 g were used. samples removed by manual filleting weighed,...
The Amazon region has the most incredible diversity of freshwater stingrays; however, there are still places where information about this group is scarce. present work aims to record occurrence stingrays in Uatumã river basin, Amazonas, Brazil. For this, collections were carried out three municipalities bathed by River, Presidente Figueiredo, Itapiranga and São Sebastião do Uatumã. rays collected through fishing using a hand net and, after capture, identified pattern dorsal ventral color...
The tambaqui Colossoma macropomum is the main species of edible fish originating from farming in Amazon region. This study aimed to determine and compare hematological biochemical parameters farms municipalities Metropolitan Region Manaus, Amazonas, Brazil. Two were sampled a semi-excavated pond-type breeding system each five towns investigated (Presidente Figueiredo, Iranduba, Manacapuru Novo Airão), totaling ten breeders. On farm, specimens captured, 100 animals. Blood was collected by...
Context Animal feed production systems have been suffering from a shortage of feedstuffs because competition for these resources with human food consumption. The use by-products can increase efficiency and circularity in chains, reducing this competition. Aims This study investigated the impacts Paullinia cupana peel meal (PCPM) on growth performance, meat quality, haematological serum biochemical parameters slow-growing broilers. Methods Two hundred forty male Label Rouge broilers were...
