A high quality fish protein concentrate was prepared from Lizard fish, locally known as Kalaso (Saurida tumbil), a species of fish with low commercial value. The laboratory process for its preparation was from the meat portion only, utilizing isoprophyl alcohol as solvent. The chemical composition of the product are as follows: moisture content, 5.81%; crude protein (N x 6.25) 91.31%; ash 2.35%; and fat 0.5%; while the yield of the fish protein concentrate was 18.56%.
