Analysis of the Possibility of Feed Protein Additive Producing from Fish Scales
Summary
Researchers analyzed the chemical composition of bream fish scales, finding high concentrations of proteins and lipids including both saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, and assessed their potential as a protein feed additive for animals and aquaculture. The study establishes bream scales as a viable source of nutrients for feed production, offering a pathway for valorizing fish processing waste.
The production of feed for animals and aquaculture is one of the most effective ways to utilize fish waste. The work provides an analysis of the chemical composition of bream scales based on the content of basic nutrients: proteins, lipids, minerals. It has been established that bream scales contain high concentrations of proteins and lipids, represented by both saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. The possibility of using bream scales for the production of protein feed additives for farm animals has been shown.
