Gadoid fish, like Alaska pollock and Pacific whiting, have a high level of trimethylamine-N-oxide demethylase (TMAOase) that catalyzes the breakdown of trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) to formaldehyde (FA) and dimethylamine (DMA) even during frozen storage. FA reacts with amino acid residues to promote covalent cross-links in the formation of inter- and intramolecular...
A significant pattern in Spanish salt fish demand over the last decade has been a steady increase in consumption of frozen light salted fillet, mainly at the expense of traditional wet salted whole consumption. Our findings suggest that a significant trend exists that consumers in Spain prefer purchasing the light...
The storage life at 43°F of ground dover sole fillets (Microstomas pacificus) was determined microbiologically after treatment with
ionizing radiation and antimicrobial agents. Sodium benzoate, potassium
sorbate and the sodium salts of the methyl and propyl esters
of parahydroxybenzoic acid (MPB and PPB) all approximately doubled
the refrigerated storage life...
