The quality of radiation-pasteurized halibut stored at 34°F
was evaluated subjectively and objectively over a period of 18 weeks.
Results of flavor evaluation and chemical analyses showed that the
storage life of halibut irradiated at 0.50, 0.75 and 1.00 megarad was
extended more than threefold. Although irradiated samples were
consistently...
Pasteurization radiation offers a new means of extending the
refrigerated storage life of foods. This procedure avoids many of
the undesirable changes which result when sterilization radiation is
used and still eliminates most of the spoilage organisms.
Shrimp was treated with 5 ppm chlortetracycline and subjected
to pasteurization levels of...
Triplicate groups of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) fed six
diets; five based on fish protein concentrate (FPC) ranging in caloric
density from 4.36 to 6.19 kcal/g, and one based on vitamin free
casein with a caloric density of 5.26 kcal/g were evaluated with
respect to diet ingredient utilization. The parameters...
Rainbow trout were fed semi-purified diets containing cyclopropenoid
fatty acids, and the biological effects of these acids were
investigated. These fatty acids occur naturally in cottonseed oil and
have been implicated in a large number of physiological disorders.
Included in this study was an investigation of the pattern of deposition...
The travel cost method of deriving demand and value of recreation
does not include fixed costs of recreational durable goods purchases
or allow for supply restrictions on the number of suitable
sites available. The omission of these two real-world situations
results in derivation of demand curves which are more inelastic...
