The effects of ambient temperature storage on the chemical
and nutritional characteristics of phosphoric and sorbic acid-stabilized
fish autolysates were determined. Variations in sample
composition due to autolysis, deboning, and acidification were also
evaluated.
Autolysates of English sole (Parophrys vetulus), true cod
(Gadus macrocephalus), Dover sole (Microstomus pacificus), and
orange...
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972
prohibits the discharge of seafood processing solid wastes into
navigable waters after July 1, 1977. Oregon shrimp and crab processors
must use other methods of disposal for the 15 to 30 million
pounds of solid waste generated annually. The application of...
Pacific whiting and its by-products were good raw materials for high quality fish sauce production. Heat stable and salt activated enzymes were responsible for autolytic activity in Pacific whiting and by-products. According to temperature profiles of raw materials at various salt concentrations, two fermentation temperatures, 35°C and 50°C, were selected...
Soluble surimi wash water (SWW) proteins could be recovered using chitosan (Chi) complexed with alginate (Chi-Alg) generating co-products for feed formulations. Chi with a degree of deacetylation (DD) of 84% complexed with Alg at a mixing ratio (MR) of 0.2 was used to study Chi-Alg concentration and treatment time protein...
Biochemical properties, functional properties, and market potential of Pacific whiting (PW) fish sauce were investigated. Biochemical properties of fish sauce made from whole fish (W) and a mixture (1:1) of whole fish and surimi byproducts (WB) were compared. Market potential was evaluated through phone interviews and consumer panelists. Proteolysis was...
The nutritive values of two fishery by-products, i.e. fish
protein hydrolysate (FPH) and liquefied fish (LF), were studied.
Three trials using Hubbard broilers, and Yorkshire pigs (starter
and grower phase) were conducted. The FPH was used in the broiler
trial and LF in the swine grower trial as supplemental protein...
Both liquid and solid wastes from Pacific whiting surimi manufacturing were
characterized and value-added products were recovered. A proteinase in surimi wash
water (SWW) was determined to be cathepsin L with Mr 54,200 on SDS-substrate gel.
Heat treatment and acidification shifted the activity zone to M [subscript r] 39,500. No...
The effect of washing machine separated rockfish flesh on
composition, quality and desirability was investigated.
Washing machine separated rockfish flesh resulted in a
36.88% loss of solids. The greatest reductions were found in the ash
(80.32%) and lipid (65.13%) levels in the washed flesh. Most of the
sarcoplasmic proteins were...
Freezing is one of the important technologies for preservation of foods.
In this project, using surimi as a food model, thermophysical properties of frozen
foods were evaluated and the freezing process was simulated using a finite
element package.
To measure temperature-dependent thermal conductivity, a line-source
probe system was used. Effects...
The effects of freeze-drying and flake freezing of surimi on biochemical and physical properties as affected by various storage conditions were examined. Using three cooking parameters shear stress and strain values were evaluated to measure gelation properties of surimi gels. Stress values increased up to 3 months and then decreased...
The biochemical and organoleptic changes that took place in
raw whole Pacific shrimp and in the cooked meat during eight days
of iced storage were investigated.
A steady increase of both microbial numbers on the raw shrimp
and pH in the raw shrimp and cooked meat was observed.
The levels...
A method was devised and tested for rapid and quantitative
identification of microbial flora in fresh seafoods. The rapid
identification of large numbers of isolates was made possible by
(1) a simplified identification scheme established by reference
culture studies and from the known reactions of microorganisms
reported in the literature,...
Limited resource catfish producers are seeking ways to enhance economic and financial profitability of their aquaculture enterprises. One of the recommended methods to increase profitability is to sell value added smoked catfish at niche markets. Development of value-added smoked catfish is a potential cottage industry for limited resource catfish farmers...
