Abstract:
Spotted seabass ( Lateolabrax maculatus ) is a popular food fish in Asian countries. Not only does the fish tasted well, but it is also widely utilized as nutraceuticals. However, the knowledge about the composition of the fish is lack. In this work, the proximate composition of spotted seabass flesh was determined. The content of proximate composition (moisture, proteins, fat, and ash) of spotted seabass flesh was fell within the range of other reported fish species, while it was a high-quality food fish with low oil-very high protein. The ratio of essential amino acids (EAAs) to nonessential amino acids (NEAAs) was 0.74, and the amount of EAAs accounted for approximately 42.34% of the total amino acids. Unsaturated fatty acids composed the majority of the fatty acid components, with linoleic acid was the predominate one. The content of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) were abundant in spotted seabass flesh. The proximate composition of the dorsal, ventral, lateral, and tail flesh was similar, except for the ventral flesh exhibited a higher content of fatty acids and lower content of moisture. Our research will be helpful for the general population to know the nutritional traits of spotted seabass.
