Abstract
  • Whale meat has been one of traditional diets in Japan. However whaling is now prohibited except for the purpose of scientific research. Therefore it is important to keep an eye on poaching and to make distribution routes clear to obtain an international credibility. Then it is highly required to build a pilot traceability system and test it immediately. On the basis of this context, we made a study on building a traceability system for whale meat. This study will contribute to clamping down any illegal trades of whale meat, ensuring safety of foods and wining confidence by consumers. This study is composed of following three studies. 1) Development of a technology, which makes it possible consumers to know the whale meat's history from its production through distribution by cellular phone. 2) Development of a technology, which makes it possible to prevent other species or poaching meat from mixing into, or to prevent a weight of whale meat from being manipulated during distribution. We developed these three basic systems by an examination with flatfish. As the next stage, we intend to examine whale meat traceability system in the field this year.
