The analysis of Huso huso lipids (chloroform extracted) showed significant differences (p<. 05) for specific FA with ...

However, color of restructured products made of proteins recovered from chicken processing by-products is poor. The by-products contain bones, skin, fat, etc. that affect color of restructured products. Therefore, color properties need to be improved.

Radiation affected populations of bacteria, namely, H2S-producing bacteria and Enterobacteriaceae (P < 0.05). Initial total viable counts of the control samples were ca. 4.41 log CFU/g, whereas the respective counts in samples irradiated at 1, 3, and 5 kGy were 3.08, 1.46, and < or = 1 log CFU/g at day 1 of refrigerated storage. The maximum count of Enterobacteriaceae reached 2.29 and 1.45 log CFU/g at the end of storage for 1 and 3 kGy, respectively, but at a 5-kGy dose no growth of Enterobacteriaceae was observed. Of the biochemical indicators, thiobarbituric acid values for irradiated trout were higher than for nonirradiated fish (P < 0.05). Sensory evaluation (taste) showed a reasonable and good correlation with bacterial populations with storage time. The results revealed that radiation at a high dose (5 kGy) might induce lipid and protein oxidation, although the growth of microorganisms was inhibited. Therefore, radiation at a low dose (3 kGy) could be used to control the microbial and safety biochemical indices of O. mykiss for up to 4 weeks at refrigerator temperature without adverse effects on quality and acceptability.
