Abstract

Prawn is widely consumed seafood harvested in the riverine parts of Nigeria providing a source of proteins, vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids. Oil production activities in the Niger Delta region have significantly affected water bodies with resultant effect on seafood production and consumption. Prawn samples were collected from Nembe and Azuzuama, Bayelsa State, Nigeria and analyzed for comparison of heavy metal and proximate composition over the dry and wet seasons. High levels of cadmium (0.033 ppm and 0.027 ppm) and chromium (0.021 ppm and 0.020 ppm) were reported although they were below the recommended permissible limits. The proximate composition of the prawn samples were within the documented range. However, carbohydrate and energy content increased during the wet season while protein and lipid content reduced. The results were significant at p(0.05) r(cal)0.814
季节变化对尼日利亚巴耶尔萨州两个地点对虾样品重金属和近似成分的影响
对虾是尼日利亚河滨地区广泛食用的海产品,是蛋白质、维生素、矿物质和必需脂肪酸的来源。尼日尔三角洲地区的石油生产活动严重影响了水体,从而影响了海产品的生产和消费。从尼日利亚巴耶尔萨州的Nembe和Azuzuama收集对虾样本,并对干湿季节的重金属和近似成分进行了分析比较。报告中镉(0.033 ppm和0.027 ppm)和铬(0.021 ppm和0.020 ppm)含量很高,但低于建议的允许限值。对虾样品的近似成分在文献记载的范围内。然而,在雨季,碳水化合物和能量含量增加,蛋白质和脂肪含量减少。p(0.05) r(cal)0.814
