          Abstract

          Body composition analysis is relevant to characterize the nutritional requirements and finishing phase of fish. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between ichthyometric (weight, total and standard length, density and yields), bromatological (fat, protein, ash and water content) and bioelectrical-impedance-analysis (BIA) (resistance, reactance, phase angle and composition indexes) variables in the hybrid tambatinga (Colossoma macropomum × Piaractus brachypomus). In a non-fertilized vivarium, 520 juveniles were housed and fed commercial rations. Then, 136 days after hatching (DAH), 15 fish with an average weight of 37.69 g and average total length of 12.96 cm were randomly chosen, anesthetized (eugenol) and subjected to the first of fourteen fortnightly assessments (BIA and biometry). After euthanasia, the following parts were weighed: whole carcass with the head, fillet, and skin (WC); fillet with skin (FS); and the remainder of the carcass with the head (CH). Together, FS and CH were ground and homogenized for the bromatological analyses. Estimates of the body composition and yields of tambatinga, with models including ichthyometric and BIA variables, showed correlation coefficients ranging from 0.81 (for the FS yield) to 1,00 (for the total ash). Similarly, models that included only BIA variables had correlation coefficients ranging from 0.81 (FS and CH yields) to 0.98 (for the total ash). Therefore, in tambatinga, the BIA technique allows the estimation of the yield of the fillet with skin and the body composition (water content, fat, ash, and protein). The best models combine ichthyometric and BIA variables.

          Analisar composição corporal é relevante para caracterizar necessidades nutricionais e fase de terminação de peixes. Objetivou-se estudar a relação entre variáveis ictiométricas (peso, comprimentos total e padrão, densidade e rendimentos), bromatológicas (gordura, proteína, cinza e umidade) e aquelas da análise por bioimpedância ou BIA (resistência, reatância, ângulo de fase e índices de composição), no híbrido tambatinga (Colossoma macropomum x Piaractus brachypomus). Em um viveiro não fertilizado, 520 juvenis foram cultivados com ração comercial. Com idade de 136 dias após a eclosão dos ovos, 37,69 g de peso, 12,96 cm de comprimento total, 15 peixes, colhidos ao acaso, foram anestesiados (eugenol) e submetidos à primeira de quatorze avaliações quinzenais (BIA e biometria). Após eutanásia foram dissecados e pesados: carcaça inteira com cabeça, filé e pele (CICFP), filé com pele (FCP) e resto da carcaça com cabeça (CCC). Juntos, FCP e CCC foram moídos e homogeneizados para análise bromatológica. Estimativas da composição corporal e de rendimentos do tambatinga, com modelos incluindo variáveis ictiométricas e da BIA, apresentaram coeficientes de correlação entre 0,81 (para o rendimento do FCP) e 1,00 (para cinzas totais). Analogamente, modelos com a inclusão apenas de variáveis da BIA mostram coeficientes de correlação entre 0,81 (rendimento do FCP e do CCC) e 0,98 (para cinzas totais). Portanto, no tambatinga, a técnica da BIA possibilita a estimativa do rendimento de filé com pele e composição corporal (umidade, gordura, cinza e proteína). Os melhores modelos agregam variáveis ictiométricas e da BIA.

            Methods for the assessment of human body composition: traditional and new.

            Renewed interest in the assessment of human body composition has stimulated the need for a balanced understanding of available methodologies of estimating fat-free mass and percent body fat. This review summarizes the physical bases and assumptions, describes applications, and discusses the theoretical and practical limitations of currently available indirect methods. Although standard methods are discussed, recent modifications and adaptations are emphasized.
