The nutrient and steroid content of some deep sea fish species from west sumatera ocean

Abstract

The Purpose o f this research is to observe 1he content of nutrient and steroid of some deep sea fish from west Sumarera ocean. The result o f the research shows that I I kinds of deep sea fish such as: Dietmoides pauciradiniin. Bcnihodeimuy tenuis, Beryx splendent, Haplasthethus iraaaipint/Xt Hoplothethtis sp, Ophidiidae, Osimobviyu dotyge, Godamus collt'tfits. Hyteragfype japontca contain protein 23,0-24,8 %, fat 1,9-4,1 %. carbohydrate 0-1,75 %, ash 1,7-2,4 %, water 70.1-72,1 %. In amino acid test, it can be identified 17 amino acid (9 essential amino acid and 8 non essential amino acid) Meanwhile in steroid test using Libermann Burchad, it can be identified 8 kinds of deep sea fish containing steroid and the greatest conccntratton is in Dietmoides pauciradiatus, Benthodesmus cenuis, Beryx splendens, Haplusthethus craaaipinus.
