Abstract

Trachurus trachurus, also called kote is a table fish. It contains some nutrients & bioactive compounds that are beneficial to human health. Processing methods may interfere with it's nutrients & are sources of reactive dicarbonyl compounds (RDCs) & polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Effect of processed kote fillet; skin, head & bones (SHB) on weaned male wistar rats (WMWR) were evaluated using standard methods. Five isocaloric/isonitrogenous diets were compounded containing soybean-groundnut cake (positive control); 0% protein (negative control); poached, coal & wood smoked kote fillet & SHB. 40 WMWR (40.76±2.42g) were randomly divided to 8 groups & fed on one of the 5 diets for 14 days. Voluntary feed intake, weight gains & digestibility were recorded. Rats were sacrificed at end of the experiment. Individual blood samples were analyzed for full blood count, electrolytes, Cholesterol (Chol), triglycerides (TGs), urea, Creatinine (CRT) & total proteins (TPs). Activities of Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) & Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were determined in the brain, liver, kidney, heart, stomach, small intestine (S.I) & spleen; Alanine transaminase (ALT) & Aspatate transaminase (AST) in liver & heart; Glucose (Gluc), Chol & CRT in brain. All data were subjected to analysis of variance by Duncan's multiple range test & considered significant at minimum of p< 0>
