Estimating the chemical components of arabibarbus grypus (Heckel,1843)

Abstract

Included a study to find out the chemical composition of Arabibarbus grypus (Heckel,1843) belonging to the Cyprinidae family, which includes: protein content, fat content, moisture content, ash content, and calorie values. In two different areas of the body: R1 and R2, 50 samples of study fish were collected from the Indian Shatt in Karbala province and between (September 2021 and November 2021) using gill nets And the hand-throwing nets and with the help of the area's fishermen.The results of the current study showed a difference in the values of chemical component rates in the muscles of the study fish, as the overall rates of protein content values in of Arabibarbus grypus ranged from (16.72 - 17.52) %, while the overall rates of values of the fat content of Arabibarbus grypus ranged from (5.95- 8.24)%, and the overall rates of moisture content values in Arabibarbus grypus ranged from (70.34- 67.01) %, while the overall rates of ash content ratios in Arabibarbus grypus ranged from (6.22-6.70) %.  Proven results.
