“…This has been accomplished by means of morphological, physiological, chemical and physical parameters (Duflos, Le Fur, Mulak, Becel & Malle., 2002;Uddin, 2010). However, the reliability of these methods is limited in case of fish with a long shelf life (Duflos et al, 2002) and in presence of processed products such as skinned and filleted fish (Hassoun & Karoui, 2017). More recently, alternative physical methods based on frontface fluorescence, near infrared spectroscopy, solid-phase gas chromatography and mass spectrometry, have been proposed as non-destructive methods for fresh-frozen product discrimination (Karoui et al, 2006;Uddin 2010, Fasolato et al, 2012, Leduc et al, 2012, Zhu et al 2013, Ottavian, Fasolato, Facco, & Barolo, 2013.…”
