Project

The influence of trace metal availability on characteristics of farmed and wild cod muscle quality and degradation.

 

Facts

Start 31. December 2004
End 30. December 2005

The levels of trace element (Zn, Cu, Mg, Mn) availability in the muscle is able to influence the activity of degradative enzymes post mortem.

Trace elements in farmed and wild cod will be measured using flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry and also by mass spectrometry (when access to the facilities at the Mat-Nat faculty is established).
