Abstract

The biochemical composition and the levels of heavy metal elements of different fish species have grown recently due to concern about its safety and nutritional value. In the current study, the proximate analyses and heavy metal contents of carp (Cyprinus carpio L., 1758) obtained from Gaziantep Alleben Pond an artificial pond, were investigated. The results showed that the proximate composition of Cyprinus carpio were found as protein (16.33%), lipid (2.17%), moisture (78.44%) and ash (1.31%). The results of heavy metal analyses exhibited that the aluminum (Al), iron (Fe), calcium (Ca), copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) contents in the muscle tissue of Cyprinus carpio were found as 20.95 mg/kg, 22.06 mg/kg, 557.62 mg/kg, 1.44 mg/kg and 36.96 mg/kg, respectively. This research has shown that the nutritional value of carp fish is high and that their heavy metal content does not exceed acceptable limits and does not pose any risk to the health of their consumers.

Abstract

Farklı balık türlerinin biyokimyasal bileşimi ve ağır metal element seviyeleri, güvenlik ve besin değeri konusundaki endişeler nedeniyle son zamanlarda artmıştır. Bu çalışmada Gaziantep Alleben Göleti'nden elde edilen sazan balıklarının (Cyprinus carpio L., 1758) besin komposizyon analizleri ve ağır metal içerikleri araştırılmıştır. Cyprinus carpio'nun besin madde içeriği protein (%16.33), lipid (%2.17), nem (%78.44) ve kül (%1.31) olarak tespit edilmiştir. Ağır metal analizlerinin sonuçları, Cyprinus carpio'nun kas dokusundaki alüminyum (Al), demir (Fe), kalsiyum (Ca), bakır (Cu) ve çinko (Zn) içeriklerinin sırasıyla 20,95 mg/kg, 22,06 mg/kg, 557,62 mg/kg, 1,44 mg/kg ve 36,96 mg/kg olduğunu göstermiştir. Bu araştırma, sazan balığının besin değerinin yüksek olduğu ve ağır metal içeriklerinin kabuledilebilir sınırlarını aşmadığı ve tüketicilerinin sağlığı için herhangi bir risk teşkil etmediğini göstermiştir.
