If it contains more than 3% salt (NaCl), the amount of salt must constitute a part of the product name, provided that in no case must the salt content of this product exceed 7%. The label shall include guarantees for minimum crude protein, minimum crude fat, maximum crude fiber, minimum phosphorus (P) and minimum and maximum calcium (Ca). If it bears\n\n\n### 51.24 Fish Residue Meal\n\n is the clean, dried, undecomposed residue from the manufacture of glue from non-oily fish. If it contains more than 3% salt (NaCl), the amount of salt must constitute a part of the product name, provided that in no case must the salt content of this product exceed 7%. (Published 1933, Amended 2003)\n\n\n### 51.34 Fish Liver and Glandular Meal\n\n is obtained by drying the complete viscera of the fish. At least 50% of the dry weight of the product must be derived from fish liver and must contain at least 18 milligrams of riboflavin per pound. (Published 1944, Amended 1945)\n\n\n### 51.4 Crab Meal\n\n is the undecomposed ground dried waste of the crab and contains the shell, viscera, and part or all of the flesh. It must contain not less than 25% crude protein. If it contains more than 3% salt (NaCl), the amount of salt must constitute a part of the product name, provided that in no case must the salt content of this product exceed 7%. (Published 1933, Amended 2003)\n\n\n### 51.5 Shrimp Meal\n\n is the undecomposed ground dried waste of shrimp and contains parts and/or whole shrimp.

Minimum percentage of solids, minimum percentage of crude protein, and minimum percentage of crude fat must be guaranteed. (Proposed 1993, Published 1996)\n\n\n### 51.7 Dried Fish Solubles\n\n is obtained by dehydrating the stickwater. It must contain not less than 60% crude protein. (Proposed 1963, Published 1964)\n\n\n### 51.8 Fish Oil\n\n is the oil from rendering whole fish or cannery waste. (Proposed 1963, Published 1964)\n\n\n### 51.9 Fish Protein Concentrate, Feed Grade\n\n is prepared from clean, undecomposed whole fish or fish cuttings using the solvent extraction process developed for the production of edible whole fish protein concentrate. It must contain not less than 70% protein and not more than 10% moisture. If the degree of fineness is stated, it must conform thereto. Solvent residues are not to exceed those established in Food Additive Regulations.
