Amino acid composition of four tilapias

Adult Tilapia zillii, Sarotherodon galilaeus, Oreochromis aureus and O. niloticus were obtained from National Institute for Freshwater Fisheries Research hatchery. They were oven dried at 60degreesC for 50hours. The dried samples were taken for amino acid analysis using Technichon TSM - I Ssequential Multisample Auto-Analyzer equipped with a pen recorder for drawing chromatograms. Statistical analysis of the amino acid composition showed significant difference (P < O.01) among species. The correlation coefficient showed very high correlation ramong the species and other sizes of 0. niloticus (0.712-0.933)
