What the research is about
This research is to evaluate fish freshness and degradation of fish by comparing chemicals used in gas chambers and various other methods such as the Fish Freshness Meter (Torrymeter)
Research conclusion
Evaluation and analysis concludes that with certain chemicals in a given gas chamber that mimic fish spoilage can be a good indicator and matches well with the Fish Freshness Meter (Torrymeter) measurement results of “estimated rejection date”. (Number of days from when the fish is dead to what is considered “not fresh” is the rejection date.)
Assurant Innovations take
The Fish Freshness Meter (Torrymeter) measurement results being the industry “golden standard” to measure fish freshness was used to verify the validity of this study. The results of the chemicals used in this study matches well with the fish freshness “rejection date”.
