The objective of this study was the investigation of the effect of variable conditions on quality parameters and the shelf life of fish during frozen storage. Three different fish products were tested, i.e., gilthead sea bream () fillets, sea bass () fillets, and yellowfin tuna () slices stored in the range of -5 to -15 °C. The kinetic modeling of different shelf-life indices was conducted. Sensory scoring of frozen fish showed high correlation with color (-value) and total volatile basic nitrogen (TVBN). The temperature dependence of the rates of quality degradation was expressed via the activation energy values, calculated via the Arrhenius equation, and ranged, for the tested quality indices, between 49 and 84 kJ/mol. The estimated kinetic parameters were validated at dynamic conditions and their applicability in real conditions was established, allowing for their practical application as tools for cold chain management.

The fish intestine is a complex ecosystem where microbial communities are dynamic and influenced by various factors. Preservation conditions during field collection can introduce biases affecting the microbiota amplified during sequencing. Therefore, establishing effective, standardized methods for sampling fish intestinal microbiota is crucial.

Canning extends the shelf life of seafood products while preserving their quality. It is increasingly considered a more sustainable food processing method due to the primary fishing methods used for key species and the lower energy costs compared to the production of fresh and frozen fish. However, canning can change key components, allow some contaminants to persist, and generate undesirable compounds.

Approaching threats are perceived through visual looming, a rapid expansion of an image on the retina. Visual looming triggers defensive responses such as freezing, flight, turning, or take-off in a wide variety of organisms, from mice to fish to insects. In response to looming, flies perform rapid evasive turns known as saccades.

Inorganic phosphori are widely used in food, whose quantitative detection method is of significance. This work presents a Sm-DDB (HDDB = 1,3-di(3',5'-dicarboxylphenyl)benzene), which acts as a ratiometric fluorescence sensor to monitor PO, HPO, and (PO) with high sensitivity. The determination factors of pH, MOF dosage, and fluorescence response time are optimized as 7.
