THE EFFECT OF ACTELLIC DUST TREATMENT ON THE PROXIMATE AND MINERAL COMPOSITION OF SYNODONTIS NIGRITA AND TILAPIA MARIAE

The high susceptibility of harvested fresh fish to immediate deterioration has resulted in the fundamental need for fish preservation to maintain its nutritional quality, minimize changes in its physical appearance, taste and lengthen shelf life. The insecticide, pirimiphos methyl (actellic dust) ha...
