title: [New type of commercial fish, the triggerfish (Balistes capriscus), in human nutrition].
abstract: Balistes capriscus is characterized by high level of protein (20.0 + 0.12%). The total amount of amino acids reaches 18.52 g per 100 g product, with leucin and lysine being predominant among indispensable amino acids and with limiting amino acids being absent. As regards the content of biologically active fatty acids, Balistes capriscus does not differ from the traditional fish cod. High biological value of Balistes capriscus is confirmed by high rates and degree of peptide bonds splitting by proteinases. The magnitudes of net utilization of cock and cod proteins by the body are identical. Analysis of the data obtained in chronic experiments on animals indicates beneficial effect of Balistes capriscus on the body of albino rats.
