Abstract
The ordinary muscle of wild and cultured puffer fish, Takifugu rubripes was examined for moisture, crude protein, lipid, mineral contents, fatty acid composition, free amino acid contents and muscle hardness. No significant difference was observed in moisture, crude protein, lipid an d mineral contents between wild and cultured puffer fish. There was no clea r difference between wild and cultured puffer fish in fatty acid compositio n, free amino acid contents and the hardness of raw and heat processed meat .
