Abstract:

Tuna processing by-product is estimated at more than 100,000 metric tonnes annually in Iran, which could be a potential source of edible protein in human food. Hence, recovering proteins from tuna by-products is a big achievement in the seafood industry. In this work tuna protein isolates (TPI) were extracted from dark/ red meat using the isoelectric solubilization/ precipitation method. Oxidative stability, biochemical indices and characteristics of the fatty acid composition of TPI (pH 6.5) containing 16.2% protein, 1.2% fat and mixed with a blend of salt and sucrose – as a cryostabilizer - and stored 6 months at -24°C were studied. The levels of peroxide (PV), TBARS, FFA and total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) were significantly increased in TPI without cryostabilizers during the storage time. The results revealed that 22 fatty acids were identified in the light and dark tuna meat and TPI. The fatty acid composition of light and dark muscle of tuna and TPI containing salt and sucrose was the same. However a significant change was observed only in the TPI free from cryostabilizers during frozen storage. The results confirm inhibiting of lipid oxidation due to the incorporation of salt and sucrose to TPI.

Chemical composition of protein concentrate prepared from Yellowfin tuna Thunnus albacares roe by cook-dried process

Roe is the term used to describe fish eggs (oocytes) gathered in skeins and is one of the most valuable food products from fishery sources. Thus, means of processing are required to convert the underutilized yellowfin tuna roes (YTR) into more marketable and acceptable forms as protein concentrate. Roe protein concentrates (RPCs) were prepared by cooking condition (boil-dried concentrate, BDC a...

a comparative study on stability and functional properties of the proteins isolated from yellowfin tuna (thunnus albacares) dark muscle by acid-aided and alkaline-aided processes

introduction: at least 60% of the estimated 300,000 metric tons of tuna that are processed in iran areby-products which arebeingwasted and converted to non-human products as fish meal or fertilizers. therefore, a major challenge facing the tuna canning industry is to find the new processes to utilize tuna processing by-products (mainly dark muscle) into valuable foods. the characteristics of tu...

Quality assessment of filtered smoked yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) steaks.

UNLABELLED Filtered smoke (FS) has been used to preserve taste, texture, and/or color in tuna and other fish species. This treatment is particularly important in color preservation during frozen storage. The objective of this study was to compare changes in the quality profiles of FS-treated and untreated (UT) yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) steaks stored in 3 ways: room temperature (21 to 2...

Environmental preferences of yellow ® n tuna ( Thunnus albacares ) at the northern extent of its range

We used acoustic telemetry to examine the small-scale movement patterns of yellow®n tuna (Thunnus albacares) in the California Bight at the northern extent of their range. Oceanographic pro®les of temperature, oxygen, currents and ̄uorometry were used to determine the relationship between movements and environmental features. Three yellow®n tuna (8 to 16 kg) were tracked for 2 to 3 d. All three...

Deep diving behavior observed in yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares)

Yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) are known to preferentially occupy the surface mixed layer above the thermocline and it has been suggested that they are physiologically restricted to water temperatures no more than 8 ◦C colder than surface waters. However, we here report for dive data acquired from a large yellowfin tuna which demonstrate for the first time that this species is indeed capabl...
