Today seafood plays a significant role in feeding people worldwide. Identification nutritional value of these products over other protein intake is increasing day by day. In parallel wif the increase in fish consumption, assessment of hygiene and health of these products is important. In this study, Heavy metals (Pb, Cr, and Cd) were investigated in white fish (Rutilus frissi kutum) from th...

This study reports on the molecular identification of fish species from processed products which had a priori been classified as belonging to 5 important species in Iran for human consumption. DNA barcoding using direct sequencing of an approximately 650bp of mitochondrial Cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) gene revealed incorrect labeling of Narrow-barred Spanish mackerel samples. High occurre...

The breakdown products of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), adenosine diphosphate (ADP), adenosine monophosphate (AMP), inosine monophosphate (IMP), inosine (Ino) and hypoxanthine (Hx) of some fish species and heated fish products were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and rapid paper strip method. The K value, calculated from ATP degradation products, the percent of the s...

Fermented fish food products have been extensively studied in Asia's fermented food culture. We have attempted to categorize the different types of fermented fish products seen in some of the Asian countries as part of a cultural context indicator analysis. Categorization is available through two cultural context indicators: the macro cultural context indicator and micro cultural context indica...
