Spoilage of Seafood and Preservation
Seafood’s spoilage: Must be Avoided in the Process of Deliver Seafood
Any kind of seafood including fish can be easily spoiled after death if it is not getting frozen immediately. The decomposition of fish flesh occurs mainly due to various chemical, microbial and enzymatic actions. Microorganisms are found on the skin, gill surfaces, and intestines of live fish. While numerous microorganisms can cause the spoilage of fish, the main ones are bacteria.
Since fresh fish spoil easily, they need to be processed and preserved. Preservation provides a long shelf-life during delivery for fish products. Preservation can be defined as the storage of excess fish when they are abundantly caught or produced so they can be consumed as if fresh in times when food is scarce or when transported long distances. Preservation affects seafood in two ways:
(1) It keeps the original freshness and properties of fish;
(2) It changes the original properties of the food and creates a new product. The main purpose of both of these is to prevent spoilage, especially by microorganisms.
Preservation to Deliver Seafood Products in A Safe Way
This is the most basic, practical, and highly recommended way of preserving seafood. The following are the requirements for a high-quality frozen product:
- After capturing the seafood, handle it with care.
- Immediately after catching the seafood, clean it thoroughly.
- An airtight wrapping method that prevents freezer burn and the development of undesirable or unwanted flavors.
- A temperature of 0 degrees F or lower is required for freezer storage.
Freezing Process: Intended to Deliver Seafood Products from C-Fishery, Safely!
Preservation of seafood products for longer periods can be achieved by freezing technique. Freezing or solidification, is a transition phase in which liquid turns into a solid when its temperature is lowered below its freezing point. By using the freezing method, it means that the heat from seafood’s body is lowered to –18°C or below. It has the advantage of minimizing microbial and enzymatic activity. Microbial and enzymatic activities are limited by lowering temperature and water activity. Many spoilage bacteria can be destroyed by freezing. In order to continue this effect of freezing, the frozen state must be protected. Frozen products must be stored in the cold until use and the cold chain definitely should not be broken.
