Abstract
The work is devoted to the study of nutritional value of African sharptooth catfish spawn and assessment of the effect of biologically active substances in the form of probiotics, adaptogenes, vitamins and amino acids on the sprawn. The aim of the work was to increase the nutritional value of African sharptooth catfish spawn by means of usage of biologically active feed additives in the ration. "Sporothermin" probiotics was used to improve the microbiocenosis of the fish habitat, as a protection against pathogenic microbiota, to improve fish intestinal microbiocenosis, and also as a source of biologically active substances. Our results showed that application of the probiotics increased the level of protein, fat, minerals and vitamins in African catfish spawn. "Irkutin" adaptogene was used due to its antioxidant properties, the ability to increase non-specific resistance and body endurance. The vitamin-amino acid complex was used as a source of vitamins and amino acids, providing metabolism regulation of proteins, fats and carbohydrates directly, or as part of complex enzyme systems. The research results showed that complex usage of the adaptogene and the vitamin-amino acid complex increased the quality of sprawn, its nutritional value and the content of water- and fat-soluble vitamins to a level that meets the requirements of health products. It was established that the sprawn of African sharptooth catfish, obtained in case of application of "Sporothermin" probiotics, "Irkutin" adaptogene, "Chiktonik" vitamin-amino acid complex in the ration, corresponds to National Standard 55577-2013 for functional food products in terms of content of fat and water-soluble vitamins.
