Background: Microbial spoilage and lipid oxidation are two major factors causing freshness deterioration of Pacific saury (Cololabis saira) during frozen storage. To provide a remedy, the effects of several natural chemicals incorporated alone or in combination in traditional water ice-glazing on the freshness and shelf-life of Pacific saury during frozen storage at -18 °C were investigated. Pacific sauries were subjected to individual quick freezing followed immediately by dipping into cold tap water (control) or solutions containing nisin, chitosan, phytic acid (single-factor experiment) or their combinations ((L (3 ) orthogonal experiment) for 10 s at 1 °C and then packaged in polypropylene bags before frozen storage at -18 °C. The storage duration tested was up to 12 months.
Results: All ice-glazing treatments with individual chemicals could significantly (P < 0.05) inhibit the accumulation of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS), total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) and histamine as well as the increase in bacterial total viable count (TVC) compared with controls, while the combination treatments gave even better effects. The L (3 ) orthogonal experiment showed that the optimal combination was A B C (i.e. 0.5 g L nisin, 5 g L chitosan and 0.2 g L phytic acid). The TBARS, TVB-N, histamine and TVC values in A B C -treated samples remained far below the maximum acceptable limit for good-freshness fish after 12 months of frozen storage at -18 °C.
Conclusion: The incorporation of natural chemicals tested herein in ice-glazing could inhibit microbial spoilage and lipid oxidation and therefore maintain the freshness of Pacific saury during frozen storage. Under the optimal conditions, the shelf-life of Pacific saury could be extended up to 12 months at -18 °C. The study indicated that the combination treatment with natural chemicals could be commercially utilized to maintain the freshness and prolong the shelf-life of Pacific saury. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry.

Article Synopsis
- A survey conducted in the Gulf of Mexico from September 2017 to December 2020 identified nine species of monogeneans (Hemirhamphiculus) infecting six types of beloniform fishes, with five new species described.
- The study also involved the transfer of four previously described species to the Hemirhamphiculus genus and noted a new host record for one of them on a different fish species.
- Additionally, three Indo-Pacific species were transferred to Hemirhamphiculus, and several former genera were synonymized with it, indicating a reclassification in the taxonomy of these parasites.

Pacific saury is one of the most economically important species in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. The management of this resource relies on precise input of biological data such as body length and is often hindered by a lack of such data on captured fish. This study explores the potential of electronic monitoring (EM) using off-the-shelf stereo cameras to overcome the challenges of collecting and measuring saury body length from the Pacific saury fishery.

The Pacific saury () is a highly nutritious deep-sea fish, rich in omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs). This study comprehensively investigated fatty acids composition and lipid profiles of different parts of Pacific saury based on an untargeted lipidomic strategy. Results suggested that the crude fat content of meat, head and viscera were 5.

In order to mitigate the risk of excessive heavy metal intake, a study was conducted to assess the levels of arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), and lead (Pb) contamination in 23 edible seafood species obtained from markets in Haikou. The findings were analyzed to evaluate the potential health hazards posed to the local population through consumption. The metals were detected via inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for quantification.
