Summary A preliminary project, “Hygiene and durability of salmon fillets: Preliminary project" , has shown that bacteria that are expected to be problematic for the durability of frozen salmon are largely applied to salmon in the process and that the problem is greatest at start-up. This indicates that there is potential for increased durability of ice-stored salmon.
This project aims to:
• clarify the potential to extend shelf life through improved hygiene
• identify and characterize important deterioration bacteria
• conduct sensory analyzes and consumer assessments
• clarify possible food safety challenges associated with extended storage
• identify important sources of infection during the production process
To develop knowledge to achieve longer and more stable shelf life for ice-stored salmon.
Sub-goal
1. To find out what is the potential for increasing shelf life.
2. To find the connection between freshness as the consumer perceives it (smell and taste), storage time and growth of deteriorating bacteria.
3. To find out where in the production process one will have the greatest effect of introducing measures to prevent infection with problem bacteria.
