Title: Analysis of Muscle Nutrients and Muscle Contents of Yellow Pond Turtle (Mauremys mutica Cantor)
Abstract: Muscle nutrients and muscle content of market size of yellow pond turtle (Mauremys mutica Canter) were analyzed. The results show that the muscle content is 23.4%, the fat content is 5.0%, the infernal organs content is 14.0%, the skeleton content is 39.4%, the blood and body liquid contents is amino acids(AA),18.4%. In their muscle, the moisture is 79.7%, ash is 1.0%, lipid is 0.3% and protein is 18.2%. In 16 amino acids (AA), tested in muscle, the total amount of (EAA) is 6.69%, the total amount of AA is 14.9%. From 18 fatty acids tested in muscle, the UFA content is 64.77%, the HUFA content is 22.91%. This paper also evaluated the value of yellow pond turtle as a food and provided the element data for developing the artificial feed of yellow pond turtle.
