Separate proximate analyses of the flesh and skin of three freshly-caught ling cod (Ophiodon elongatus) from the east coast of Vancouver island are reported. Average percentages of protein in the flesh and skin were 18.1 and 26.9 (moist) or 87.0 and 88.5 (dry); ash, 1.2 and 2.5 (moist); fat, negligible; Calories per 100 g. (moist), 81 and 117.

Proximate analyses of samples of canned pilchard from fish caught early and late in the season in one vicinity on the west coast of Vancouver island are tabulated. The average calorific value per pound of content was 747 and 1074 Calories, respectively. The percentage of fat (18.5) in the late-caught fish was almost twice as great as that in the early-caught fish. Separate proximate analyses of the flesh, skin, and bone disclosed significant changes in the percentages of fat, protein, and minerals in these components between the beginning and end of the season.

Samples of canned coho (blueback) salmon (Oncorhynchiis kisutch), from fish caught each month of the fishing season (May-September) in a limited area on the coast of British Columbia, were subjected to analysis from which nutritive values were determined by the calculation of calorific values. The average percentages of constituents in composite samples of the entire contents were: water, 72.8; fat, 4.50; protein, 19.9; sodium chloride-free ash, 1.37; sodium chloride, 1.13; calorific value per pound of contents, 562. Percentages of fat, protein, sodium chloride-free minerals, and consequently the food value, reached a maximum in cans containing fish caught in mid-July.

Proximate analyses were made at bi-monthly intervals during 1933–34 on samples of Ostrea lurida, O. virginica, and O. gigas grown under identical conditions in the strait of Georgia. The proportions of glycogen and protein are shown to be approximately reciprocal and the greatest variation to occur during the summer. The energy content varies slightly, attaining a maximum in late fall and early winter, O. gigas having the highest and O. lurida the lowest values.

The liver oil of the Pacific coast Ling cod has been examined for vitamin A by both biological and colorimetric methods. The oil is very rich in vitamin A, the least potent sample containing 20,000 rat units per gram.

Percentages of moisture, protein, fat and ash in meat and liquor were determined. Food value of the meat was approximately 100 calories per 100 grams.

Determinations of the Ca, Mg, Na, K, P and Cl content were made and the ratios of calcium, magnesium and phosphorus oxides suggest the presence of calcium and magnesium metaphosphates in the ash of the flesh, calcium metaphosphate in that from the skin and tribasic calcium orthophosphate in that from the bone.

Brachiella lageniformis, hitherto known only from the Atlantic coast of Argentina, was found off the east coast of Vancouver Island, on the gills of Merluccius productus. Both male and female are described and illustrated in detail. The significance of this find for Szidat's views on the origin of the genus Merluccius is discussed. A proposal is made to suppress the genus Parabrachiella and to place all its five species (P. rostrata, P. insidiosa, P. australis, P. spinicephala, and P. incurva) in the genus Brachiella.

This research aims to analyze the nutritive value of flour head, liver powder and bone meal as by product of Indonesian eel (Anguilla bicolor) processing. Eel waste flour was made by using a thermal process in the drum dryer fish flouring mill PT. Carmelitha Lestari in Bogor, whereas proximate analysis for chemical tests were performed in the laboratory of Integrated Chemical Laboratory, IPB and direct observation was conducted in PT Jawa Suisan Indah, Palabuhanratu Sukabumi district in October 2012—April 2013. The nutritive value based on proximate analysis showed that head flour, liver flour, and bone flour contained protein 61.78%, 53.92%, and 41.01%; fat 15.55%, 27.28%, 13.07%; carbohydrate 11.48%; 14.96%, 8.13%; water 5.44%, 8.48%, 3.01%; ash 12.95%, 3.62%, 37.49%, and crude fiber 1.33%, 0.04%, 1.11%, respectively.<br /><br />
