HATAY BÖLGESİNDE ÜRETİLEN FİRİĞİN BESİNSEL DEĞERLERİNİN İNCELENMESİ

Bu çalışmada, Hatay bölgesinde üretilen Firiğin besin değeri, dört Firik numunesi kullanılarak incelenmiştir. Firik örneklerinin protein, kül, nem, toplam şeker, yağ, tuz, ham selüloz içerikleri ve yağ asidi profili belirlenerek elde edilen değerler bulgur ve pirinç gibi benzer gıdalar ile karşılaştırılmıştır. Firiğin, protein ve kül içeriği bulgur ve pirinçten yüksek, şeker ve yağ içeriği ise daha düşüktür. Buna ek olarak, esansiyel yağ asitleri olarak bilinen yüksek miktarda linoleik asit ve oldukça uygun miktarda linolenik asit elde edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, Hatay'da üretilen Firiğin karbonhidrat esaslı diğer gıdalardan daha iyi besinsel özelliklere sahiptir. Elde edilen veriler Firiğin günlük diyetin besin değerini artırmak için kullanılabileceğini göstermektedir.

EXAMINATION OF FIRIK PRODUCED IN HATAY REGION IN TERMS OF NUTRITIONAL ASPECT

In this study, nutritional value of Firik produced in Hatay region was examined by using four Firik samples collected from local farmers. Amount of protein, ash, moisture, total sugar, fat, salt, raw cellulose and fatty acid profile were determined and estimated values were compared with similar foods such as bulgur and rice. Protein and ash contents of Firik samples were higher than bulgur and rice, while sugar and fat contents were lower. In addition, higher amount of linoleic acid and remarkably adequate amount of linolenic acid generally known as essential fatty acids were obtained. The results showed that Firik produced in Hatay can be considered to use as a reinforcement ingredient for improving nutritional value of daily meals, as it has better nutritional properties than the other resemble carbohydrate-based foods.
