Abstract:Fat deposition and off-flavor in the muscle are the main problems affecting flesh quality in aquaculture fish, especially in catfish, leading to low acceptability and reduced market price. Yellow catfish is an important aquaculture fish in China. In this study, 40 days of depuration and starvation treatment were explored to improve the muscle quality of aquaculture yellow catfish. After depuration and starvation, the body weight, condition factor (CF) and mesenteric fat index (MFI) were all significantly decre… Show more
