Abstract

Man has been using fish right from time immemorial as a source of food. It has been proved that fish meat is the richest of all sources of animal proteins contributing 13- 20% of its total body weight as proteins. For a world faced with population explosion, fish may well emerge as mankind’s continuous source of food in the future. As a distinct indication of the trend, fisheries activities increased enormously to keep pace with the growing demand for fish. An emerging d development, in this background, is that fish is now gaining in popularity for its wide range of therapeutic applications on humans.
