Abstract

The catfish (Clarias batrachus) is one kind of fish, which currently has been highly demanded in Indonesia due to the high protein content. Generally, the catfish in Indonesia are fried, grilled and served as “pecel lele”. In order to meet the increasing market demand, the catfish farming should be increased massively but by reducing the production cost, such as using maggot-based feed. However, the carbohydrate and protein content of the processed products based on catfish fed maggot has not been reported to our knowledge. Therefore, here we investigated carbohydrate and protein content of several catfish processed products i.e., smoked catfish, steamed catfish, catfish nugget, and catfish meatball. The results show that among the catfish processed products, the smoked catfish has the highest carbohydrate content but the lowest protein content. On the other hand, the steamed catfish has the highest protein content compared to the other catfish processed products.
