Abstract
The aim of this study is to find the proximate composition in different tissues of shrimp species collected from Gorai Creek. We emphasized the possible role of this proximate composition on humankind. In this study, the emphasis has been given to the pattern of bioaccumulation and their orders of occurrence have been studied using standard methods. From this study, it is concluded that the shrimp species have low levels of ash content. This might be because of a good source presence of minerals like calcium, potassium, zinc, iron, and magnesium. In the studied shrimps, we found elevated levels of moisture content that may be due to decreased levels of lipids in the shrimp species. From our findings, no remarkable fluctuating trends were recorded in carbohydrate. This might be because of lowering the energy level. In this study, the levels of protein and carbohydrates were found low. Protein is one of the essential nutrients for the formation of body posture by maintaining the body tissues for normal growth and body functioning, which showed the low nutritional value and physiological significance. This might be because the varying seasonal conditions and presence of food may differ in the reproductive cycle, which subsequently affects the tissue biochemistry, particularly fat metabolism.
