LINES OF RESEARCH
  • Characterization of lipids and oils of marine origin.
  • Lipid analysis related to quality loss in marine products: assessment of lipid hydrolysis (free fatty acids) and oxidation (indices of peroxides, conjugated dienes and trienes, thiobarbituric acid and fluorescence)
  • Non-lipid analysis related to quality loss in marine products: determination of formaldehyde and volatile bases (totals and trimethylamine) content and of nucleotides (K value) evolution
  • Analysis of constituents in marine products: basic composition (proteins, lipids, water, ash) and determination of trimethylamine oxide, tocopherols, profile of fatty acids and sarcoplasmic and myofibrillar proteins
  • Sensory analysis in refrigerated and frozen fish products: evaluation of smell, color, taste and general appearance (texture, skin mucus, gills and eyes)
