Abstract

The study aimed to investigate the chemical content (protein, lipid, moisture, and ash) and estimate the total calories of lateral muscles in two cyprinids of Arabibarbus grypus and Leuciscus vorax. Species collected from Al-Hindiya River from July to September 2020. Protein content values in A. grypus ranged from 17.53 to 19.83%, while in L. vorax, it ranged from 16.85 to 18.61%. The lipid content values were 4.846.26 and 4.63–6.26% in A. grypus and L. vorax, respectively. Arabibarbus grypus had a moisture content of 76.21-71.65% and L. vorax 73.24-75.43%. The ash contents of A. grypus ranged from 0.84 to 1.25%, while that of L. vorax ranged from 1.4 to 2.09%. Both species can be classified as medium lipid-content fish based on their lipid content values.
