SUA-CESPEDES, C. D. et al. Bromatological characteristics of fillet fish of Leporinus agassizi and Leporinus fasciatus (Pisces: Characidae) in its natural habitat. Rev. Med. Vet. Zoot. [online]. 2020, vol.67, n.2, pp.159-170.  Epub 26-Mar-2021. ISSN 0120-2952.  https://doi.org/10.15446/rfmvz.v67n2.90710.

Bromatological parameters in 39 Warakú verdadero (Leporinus agassizi) and 21 Warakú pinima (Leporinus fasciatus) fillets were analyzed at three different sites of the Vaupés River, Colombia sampled during a hydrobiological cycle. The bromatological parameters did not shown significant differences in relation to the sites and season of capture. At point 3 and during the descending water season Leporinus agassizi had the highest values for dry matter (25.24%), protein (19.82%) and ash (2.16%). The highest lipid value for this species was found in low waters at point 1 (2.93%). Leporinus fasciatus showed the highest levels of dry matter (25.19%) and ash (2.16%) at point 3 during ascendant and high waters, respectively. The bromatological parameters tends to vary regarding the time of year. It was possible to determined that these fish species have great potential for continental aquaculture thus constituting a healthy food model.
