Title: | Conductometric method for determining water stability and nutrient leaching of extruded fish feed | Authors: | Banjac, Vojislav Čolović, Radmilo Pezo, Lato Čolović, Dušica Gubić, Jasmina Đuragić, Olivera |
Issue Date: | 1-Jan-2017 | Journal: | Acta Periodica Technologica | Abstract: | Water stability of eight samples of extruded salmon feeds was first determined by applying two gravimetric methods developed by the authors: gravimetric static and wet sieving method. Then, the conductometric method, primarily developed for investigation of nutrient leaching of feed into the water by the authors, was used for each sample. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of the conductometric measurement as a technique for determining water stability of extruded fish feed. In order to find any correlation between the results of two gravimetric tests and conductometric method, correlation analysis was employed. The results of static and wet sieving method were expressed as water stability index, which was expressed as the percent of remained dry matter of sample after being disintegrated in the water. The results of conductometric method were shown as conductivity curves for each sample, giving the insight in rate of nutrient leaching during the time. The obtained values of water conductivity showed no significant (p < 0.05) correlation with the results of static water method, while there was a negative significant (p < 0.05) correlation with the results of wet sieving method during first four hours of pellets soaking in water. The highest correlation coefficients were obtained within the first hour of conductivity measurement, demonstrating that proposed conductometric method had a potential to be applied as a rapid and simple method for determination and relative comparison of salmon feed water stability. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/3705 | ISSN: | 14507188 | DOI: | 10.2298/APT1748015B |
