摘要：Amino acid profile of the white and red (dark) meat in Katsuwonus pelamis, a tuna fish, caught fromArabian Sea in the month of January, was estimated using gas chromatography. There was no significant variationbetween red and white meat samples for the total percentage of essential and non-essential amino acids whichconstitute 52.3% and 47.7% respectively. Non essential amino acids asparagine and glutamine, and semi essentialamino acid cysteine were not detected in both, red meat and white meat samples. Glutamate makes up approximately13% in both samples which can be considered the highest. Certain individual amino acids, histidine, lysine and arginineshowed variation between red and white meat samples.
