ABSTRACT In this study, bonito fish (Sarda sarda Bloch, 1793) were irradiated at 3 or 5 kGy, packaged, frozen, and stored at −20 ± 2°C for 12 months. During storage, the microbiological, physical, and chemical changes of the fish flesh were then assessed. Increasing the irradiation dose to 5 kGy provided greater inhibition of mesophilic and psychotropic aerobic bacteria (P < 0.05). Because fewer bacteria were detected in irradiated (3 and 5 kGy) as compared with unirradiated control fish suggests that freezing and irradiation yielded better results when combined. Irradiation at 3 and 5 kGy also positively impacted water activity, total volatile basic nitrogen, thiobarbituric acid–reactive substances, trimethylamine, and odor compared with the control group. However, a significant difference was not seen between the 3- and 5-kGy groups in terms of water activity, total volatile basic nitrogen, thiobarbituric acid–reactive substances, trimethylamine, and odor results (P > 0.05). Based on these findings, fish irradiated at 3 and 5 kGy remained within consumable limits during 12 months of frozen storage, while the control group was unacceptable after 9 months.

This study investigated the total viable counts, sensory and physicochemical qualities (total volatile basic nitrogen, K-value, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances value, water holding capacity and texture parameters), as well as water distribution of fresh hairtail fish during simulated cold chain. The results showed that total volatile basic nitrogen, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and K-values increased with the increasing time, while sensory scores, water holding capacity, hardness and elasticity decreased. The transverse relaxation time T2 data detected by low-field nuclear magnetic resonance also showed that T22 (trapped water) gradually decreased with the increasing time, while T23 (free water) increased. It was observed that the quality deterioration of the fish fillets developed more quickly when the samples suffered frequent temperature fluctuations than they stored at higher but stable temperatures. The changes of T22 and T23 of both the samples stored at stable and fluctuated temperatures showed good correlations with sensory, total volatile basic nitrogen and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances values (R2 > 0.9, p < 0.05). Therefore, low-field nuclear magnetic resonance technology can be a potential tool to monitor the quality changes of hairtail fish during cold chain logistics.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of raw material freshness on the quality of marinated fish. The raw material anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) was divided into two batches. One batch (A) was kept at ambient temperature (20°C) for 6 h and the other one was kept at 0°C for 72 h. Then, they were marinated by soaking into marination solution containing 3% acetic acid and 8% NaCl. Total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), trimethylamine (TMA), thiobarbituric acid (TBA), para-anisidine (p-Av) values in both marinated samples increased significantly during storage at 4°C. Increases in quality parameters were higher in samples produced with raw anchovy kept at 20°C compared to samples kept at 0°C. Although the sensory scores of both samples decreased during storage, higher scores were obtained for samples kept at 0°C compared to samples kept at ambient temperature. According to the results of the study, it has been determined that the quality of the raw material significantly (p<0.01) affects the quality of marinated anchovy.Keywords: fish; quality; anchovy; marinade; raw material
