Seasonal influence on centesimal composition and yield of Amazonian fish

Abstract

The objective of this study was to evaluate meat yield and centesimal composition of the Amazonian fish species, A. ocellatus, P. castelnaeana, and L. friderici, in the dry and flood seasonal cycles of rivers. In each seasonal cycle (flood and dry), a total of 60 fish were collected, comprising 20 specimens of each of the following species: A. ocellatus, P. castelnaeana, and L. friderici. Were evaluated the meat yield, cuts yield and centesimal composition of the fish samples. Meat yield in the clean body cuts and skinless filet varied between species and hydrological period. The results showed that seasonal variation influenced the centesimal composition and yield of the species studied, with significant differences between the cuts produced during processing. These findings highlight the need to apply a variety of technological processes to ensure efficient use of these species throughout the year. The total waste represented more than 50% of the whole fish, and the head size was directly proportional to the amount of waste generated. These results underscore the importance of waste utilization for animal and/or human nutrition.

1 Introduction

In many parts of the world, fish forms a fundamental component of the human diet and is the main source of animal protein (Goes et al., 2016; Temesgen et al., 2019). The nutritional benefits of fish include high content and quality of proteins and lipids; vitamins A, D, and B complex; and minerals (Ogawa, 1999; Goes et al., 2016; Mafra et al., 2016; Araújo et al., 2018).

Although fish consumption in Brazil has increased, it is still low overall, with a per capita consumption of approximately 14.5 kg/kg/inhabitant/year. The intake of fish in the country reflects regional cultural differences, quantity, and the quality available, as well as the low prices of alternative products that influence consumer choice at the time of purchase (Lopes et al., 2010; Lira et al., 2019; Verdi et al., 2020). However, in the Brazilian Amazon, which has an estimated average consumption of 369 g/inhabitant/day in the lower Solimões River areas and up to 135 kg/inhabitant/year in the upper Amazon, fish consumption rate exceeds that of many parts of the world. It is the main protein source for populations that live on the banks of the Amazonian rivers (Cerdeira et al., 1997; Batista et al., 2004). Indeed, high fish consumption is a feature of the state of Amazonas, with several factors contributing to this dietary trend, such as the geographical location, indigenous culture, affordability of fish for all classes, and diversity of fish species.

Astronotus ocellatus (acará-açú) is a cichlid (Cichlidae) native to the Amazon River basin, including Brazil, Peru, Colombia, and French Guiana, and is economically important for aquarists, sport fishing, and as a food source (Soares et al., 2011). Pellona castelnaeana, commonly known as Amazon pellona, is one of the few species of the Pristigasteridae family recognized in commercial fishing and is important for subsistence fishing in the Amazon (Batista & Petrere, 2003; Ikeziri et al., 2008). Leporinus friderici, known as the fat-headed aracu or piau (Characiformes, Anostomidae), is distributed throughout several South American countries (Paraguay, Argentina, Uruguay, Suriname, and Brazil), with environment and seasonal migration in a short space for reproduction in the filling period (Benedito-Cecílio et al., 2005; Graça & Pavanelli, 2007; Agostinho et al., 2008; Ota et al., 2018). The three species studied are common and regularly occur in fish catches in the northern region of the Amazon. However, information about their chemical composition and body characteristics is scarce. These data are important for the development of appropriate technologies to regional fishing industry to achieve rational exploitation of natural fish stocks.

The Amazon is marked by a flood pulse, characterized by high waters (flood and flood peak) and low waters (dry season and ebb) (Sousa & Freitas, 2008). The floods occur between December and June when shoals are formed, and spawning migrations occur in streams or lakes. At this time, abundant food is available and there are good connections between the waterways through which spawning fish and new recruits can move. The low water occurs from July to November when fish begin to leave flooded areas of the forest. As the volume of water reduces, the fish become more vulnerable to predation and are exposed to low oxygen concentrations in water and toxic compounds (Santos & Santos, 2005).

The nutritional and commercial values of fish are directly related to the texture and chemical composition of their meat, yield, and factors related to origin, capture, and processing techniques (Machado & Foresti, 2008; Araújo et al., 2018; Oliveira et al., 2020). Therefore, the study of the nutritional value of fish is not only important for the prescription of diets but also to establish the filet yield and the total waste generation, which are decisive factors for a fishing industry. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate meat yield, cuts yield and centesimal composition of the Amazonian fish species: A. ocellatus, P. castelnaeana, and L. friderici, in the dry and flood seasonal cycles of rivers.

2 Materials and methods

The species studied were obtained from the fish-landing port of CEASA-Manaus, located on BR-319, at the confluence of the Negro and Solimões rivers, where the water level of the rivers reaches its maximum peak in June (flood) and minimum level in November (dry season). In each cycle, a total of 60 fish were collected, comprising 20 specimens of each of the following species: A. ocellatus, P. castelnaeana, and L. friderici. The fish were preserved in ice boxes (1:1 ice:fish ratio) and transported to the Fish Technology Laboratory of the Federal University of Amazonas (Manaus, Brazil) for processing and laboratory analysis.

The specimens were measured using an ichthyometer and weighed on a digital electronic scale (Filizola® brand, sensitivity of 2 g) to obtain the total weight and the different cuts, for subsequent calculation of meat yield. The percentage yield was determined from the ratio of the weight of the cut (x100) to the weight of whole fish. The analysis of centesimal composition was performed according to norms recommended by the Association of Official Analytical Chemists (2005) and adopted by the Instituto Adolfo Lutz (2008) . The parameters measured were moisture, crude protein, total lipids, ash, and carbohydrates (by difference).

The results were submitted to the Shapiro-Wilk normality and Bartlett’s homoscedasticity tests and statistically treated by two-way ANOVA. Means were compared by Tukey’s test at 5% using R software version 3.1.3. (R Development Core Team, 2009).

3 Results

The yields of the different cuts of the studied species in different seasonal periods are presented in Table 1. A. ocellatus showed significant differences (p < 0.05) in average weight, total residues, and in the gutted cuts, clean body, filet with skin, and filet without skin and head. P. castelnaeana species showed significant differences (p < 0.05) in the average weight, clean body, and filet with skin. Leporinus friderici showed significant differences (p < 0.05) in the average weight, total residues, clean body, filet without skin, and filet with skin. For P. castelnaeana and L. friderici, higher average weights were recorded during the flood period compared with A. ocellatus which had higher weights during the dry season. The head, along with the carcass, contributed the most to the final yield of the species in the periods.

4 Discussion

The removal of fish offal is a necessary process in the storage and marketing of fish (Souza & Inhamuns, 2011). This practice aims to preserve the quality and organoleptic properties of fish. A ‘clean body’ refers to a fish specimen without the head, viscera, fins, and scales. Of the three species studied, L. friderici had the highest average yield during the flood period. This finding can be attributed to its feeding habits, as it is an omnivorous species with a tendency to feed on insects or fruits, which are abundant during the flood period (Santos & Santos, 2005; Delgado et al., 2020). In contrast, A. ocellatus showed higher yields during the dry season in the Amazon basin. This is a sedentary and omnivorous species, with a strong tendency to feed on small fish, insects, and crustaceans. In the dry season, the water volume is smaller, and these foods are easier to capture (Santos et al., 2006).

Oliveira & Inhamuns (2003) found that silverfish (Cynoglossus semifasciatus), had an index of 68% for the clean body. This value was similar to that of P. castelnaeana during the dry season, and slightly higher than that of A. ocellatus during flood and the dry season. In keeping with the yield characteristics in a clean body, L. friderici and A. ocellatus presented the highest and lowest percentages for skin and filet cuts, both in the flood period. Values very close to those reported by this study were observed in mapará (Hypothalamus edentatus) and piramutaba (Brachyplatystoma vaillantii) (Souza & Inhamuns, 2011; Oliveira & Damasceno, 2014), and in matrinxã (Brycon cephalus) (Mujica et al., 2011). L. friderici is a fusiform species and tends to have higher yields because of its cylindrical muscle mass (Contreras-Guzmán, 1994), which can be processed in various ways. In fish, head size is inversely proportional to maximum yield (Morais et al., 1992; Contreras-Guzmán, 1994). In the present study, only A. ocellatus showed significant variation in the percentage of head during the seasonal cycle, the percentage being higher in the flood period. It is noteworthy that this species, when compared to L. friderici, which had the lowest values, presented approximately twice the percentage of head. A lower percentage of head was also found by Lima et al. (2011) for piau (L. obtusidens), which belongs to the same family (Anostomidae) as L. friderici. In another study, Souza & Inhamuns (2011) found higher percentages of head for surubim (Pseudoplatystoma fasciatum) and tucunaré (Cichla monoculus) during the flood and dry seasons, respectively. However, these values were lower than those found for A. ocellatus in the present study.

Industrial fish processing produces a large amount of waste, most of which is not used for any other purpose and, depending on the fish species processed and the final product sought by the industry, can represent between 8% and 16% for gutted fish production and 60% to 72% for skinless filets (Kubitza, 2006). In carcass-yield studies of surubim (Pseudoplatystoma spp.) from two different production systems (net-pond and nursery), percentages were determined at 15.83% ± 1.04% (Fantini et al., 2013), while Lima et al. (2011) evaluated the yield for matrinxã carcasses at 36.5%.

The morphometry of fish species influences the yield of filets and left-overs, and is data required by the fishing industry to avoid waste and add value to new byproducts. Studies by Araújo et al. (2018) evaluated the yields of traíra filets (Hoplias malabaricus) during the dry season and found they made up 34.62% to 34.76% of the total weight. Additionally, Mafra et al. (2016) reported a percentage yield of filet with skin of 44.79% to 48.60% for red piranha (Pygocentrus nattereri). These results were similar to those observed in this study for the P. castelnaeana and L. friderici during the flood and dry seasons, highlighting the potential of these species for the fishing industry.

Fish have a high nutritional importance in human food, and the chemical composition may vary between species and even within the same species, according to age, sex, and diet as well as the environment in which the animal is found. Fish muscle is made up of water, lipids, proteins, carbohydrates, minerals, and vitamins. These are important elements for human food intake and provide health benefits (Larsen et al., 2011; Sartori & Amancio, 2012; Goes et al., 2016). In turn, the composition of the total lipid content, as well as the moisture content in fish, is a relevant factor because of the possibility of lipid oxidation and deterioration of fish quality between capture and consumer acquisition (Inhamuns et al., 2009).

In the Amazon region, there is marked seasonality in the moisture and fat levels of fish. During the flood season, fat levels are higher, reaching up to 15% in whole fish and 5% in filets, while moisture content can be between 65% and 75%, respectively (Junk, 1985; Mafra et al., 2016; Araújo et al., 2018). Moisture and lipid content were inversely proportional in the dry season and flood period for the L. frederici and A. ocellatus. P. castelnaeana presented higher lipid content in the dry season, with respective reductions in muscle moisture. According to Claro-Jr et al. (2004), during the dry season, fish show greater variability in their diets. This is probably due to the scarcity of food in the environment, except for most piscivores, such as the P. castelnaeana, whose prey is more concentrated in bodies of water at this time of year. A. ocellatus was classified as thin in both seasonal periods, the P. castelnaeana was thin in the flood and semi-fat in the dry season, while L. friderici was classified as thin in the dry season and semi-fat in the flood, based on the work of Ackman (1989).

Meat contains more moisture than any other component and the higher the amount of moisture, the more susceptible the meat is to deterioration. Therefore, moisture has a direct effect on the color, juiciness, texture, taste, and stability of meat. The variations of moisture and lipid fractions in A. ocellatus were not significant, despite the increase in lipid content during the dry season. Lipids influence protein degradation, texture change, and intense flavor change, due to degradation of the unsaturated fatty acid chain; therefore, lipid content is considered an important attribute for evaluating fish quality (Figueiredo, 2009; Brito et al., 2019).

Machado & Foresti (2008) stated that migratory fish, due to forced swimming during the piracema (spawning season), showed a decrease in lipid level and an increase in protein content when compared to resident species. This explains the lower lipid and protein levels in the dry season in L. friderici, as this is a migratory species, and the piracema begins in the dry season in the Amazon. A. ocellatus and apapá-yellow species showed higher protein and lipid values during the dry season. The former has an omnivorous carnivorous feeding habit, while the latter is carnivorous (Santos, 2006). The protein and lipid values are probably related to the periods of flood and the dry season when prey becomes more concentrated and easier to catch (Santos & Santos, 2005). The percentage of ash ranged from 0.91% to 1.19% on average in the species studied. Only L. friderici presented significant differences between seasons, with the ash-percentage being lower in the dry season. It is important to mention that the determination of ash provides high quality information’s about mineral elements and how the content is influenced by the food behavior of the species (Universidade Estadual de Campinas, 2011).

5 Conclusion

Seasonal variation influenced the centesimal composition and yield of the species studied, with significant differences between the cuts produced during processing. These findings highlight the need to apply a variety of technological processes to ensure efficient use of these species throughout the year. The total waste represented more than 50% of the whole fish, and the head size was directly proportional to the amount of waste generated. These results underscore the importance of waste utilization for animal and/or human nutrition.
